"Ground pepper" is in fact a shade of gray.

Non-gray-carpet fields:
1992, corn kernels
1993 (Rug Rage)--not sure offhand, but almost certainly carpet. Gray or not, not entirely certain.
2010, green carpet (soccer field)
2012, tan carpet (basketball court)

1997 I'm pretty sure was gray carpet.
2000 was DEFINITELY gray carpet.

So, in 24 games, only 3-5 did NOT have gray carpet as the primary surface. 80% or so.

And, just to stir the pot, there has already been a water game. One of the games I listed in this post had water in the game. Anybody want to take a guess?
2015, red and blue carpet

Edit: The water game was Rug Rage
