Apparently at one point they were going to put down some new AstroTurf, and it was going to cost $750,000. the AD thought it was a shame to spend that much money when no one would even notice that anything had changed. So, since everyone already knew that the field was going to be AstroTurf and not real grass anyways, they decided to make the turf blue, that way people would notice that the field was new.

What capital city is Boise?
It was Lewiston at first, but disputes over where the capital should be resulted in it being moved to Boise. Boise was growing in size and closer to the center of the state. Lewiston was too far north. It can be argued that Boise is now too far southwest, but there aren't big enough cities near the true center of the state to make one capital. Plus, many capitals aren't in the center of their states anyway.
