In a normal year, maybe Frank would have been at the Super Bowl in person.

Each had an LED pixel. Jason Baker, director of execution for bluemedia, which created, delivered and installed the cutouts for the game, a process taking three months, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tampabay.com\/sports\/bucs\/2021\/02\/07\/fan-cutouts-create-surreal-sobering-image-of-super-bowl-55\/\">said<\/a>, \u201cIt was quite the process. It was a seven-day period for us to do this (installation), working about 12- to 16-hour days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Baker continued, \u201cWe have done this on a smaller scale (for other NFL teams) but not anywhere near tens of thousands for the NFL for obviously the biggest game in sports. I do hope this is the first and last time we do it for obvious reasons. But we\u2019re (fortunate) to be in association with our partner (NFL) on this one. It\u2019s an amazing experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coroplast, also known as PP plate sheet (\u201cFluted Polypropylene Sheet\u201d), is non-toxic, waterproof, shockproof, and colorfast. Brian McCarthy, a spokesperson for the NFL, tweeted prior to the game that they were \u201cpretty cool looking\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\">There are 30,000 fan cutouts placed thruout the stadium &amp; about 25k people here.
