ESPN makes changes to Monday Night Football’s ‘Booger Mobile’

Not many fans have enjoyed the “Booger Mobile” on Monday Night Football this season, especially those who had close seats at the games.
ESPN created a device for analyst Booger McFarland to sit on at the line of scrimmage, giving him a better view of the game throughout the broadcast. However, it was hindering the view of fans sitting behind the sidelines, as the “Booger Mobile” caused an obstruction.
For Monday’s Patriots-Bills game, it was noticed that ESPN made some changes to the device. Instead of a giant monitor on the back, which was the main cause of the obstruction, there was clear plexiglass, allowing fans to see through it.
While the “Booger Mobile” still isn’t popular, at least it’s now less of an obstruction, as seen below:
