I think all of the hoopla surrounding Yankee Stadium is pretty funny. I mean, it's NOT the same place that Babe Ruth et al played, after all.... It's the same location but they basically redid the entire park in the '70's - kind of lick gutting the entire inside of your house to re-do it.
I have mixed feelings about Fenway, especially after having been to Camden Yards a couple of times and Citizens Bank Park last year, as well as a game at Fenway (first one in about 10 years). While I had a great seat at Fenway (left-field wall, ground level, looking right down the third-base line to home), it was also a terrible seat - canted towards second base and my left knee crammed up against the wall. Getting in and out was difficult, and the lines at the concession stand closest to me was insane..... If there was a way they could knock down Fenway and built an exact replica but more comfortable, and do it between the World Series and Opening Day, I might sign up for that..... ;-) Dan D Central NJ USA ________________________________ From: Ray Salemi <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, March 18, 2010 7:43:07 AM Subject: The old Yankee Stadium comes down : The New Yorker Those of us who support the preservation of Fenway Park fear a day like this one: http://www.newyorker.com/talk/2010/03/22/100322ta_talk_paumgarten (sent via Shareaholic) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Red Sox Citizens" group.
