Take a sample in to your neighborhood nursery. They may have seen it
before. Better to find out what it is rather than spray {whatever} on
your lawn blindly.


Exactly... could be some form of smut (fungi) that appears once every
100 years, does its thing and then goes to sleep for another
century... just saying. Check it out. It's probably harmless and
nothing you could do about it anyway.
