Rofl that is great. They could even make the picture even better.

Gotta second this. Busch was a fantastic experience the only time I've been and the immediate surrounding area (Ballpark Village?) is super nice.
[Reply]

Yep. Love Busch Stadium, it's the reason why I want a downtown stadium for the Royals.

Truist Park and the surrounding area are very similar, only with the advantage of not being encroached on all sides by the fucking ghetto.

If you park SUPER close yes...

Doesn't really matter what anyone thinks. People will come or they won't regardless of what any of you think. And it's possible that people aren't "scared" so much as they're pissed and they won't celebrate/support or look away from regresssive policies. Low trust society begets low trust results.

Petco Park in San Diego is downtown and it's pretty awesome. Tropicana Field is next to downtown St Pete but there's a ton of bars and restaurants across the street.

Petco is in the Gas Lamp district of SD. Several blocks away from downtown and much nicer.

Don't chase good money after bad. Sinking money into a stadium for a dying sport couldn't be any clearer an example of "bad money."

Just wait 20 years until all of the hardcore baseball fans are dead and the Royals are on year 27 of under .500 baseball. The place will be HOPPING
[Reply]

Just in time to start talking about a new stadium.
[Reply]

They seem to be on a 30 year championship cycle, so 20 years from now they should be in pretty good shape.

A lot of us won't be here to see it, though. Maybe we should merge this with the young thread.

Bro, there's a chance even you could swing a date with a chick if the stadium was downtown!

Man, that Hampton Inn and Suites at 16th and Main is gonna get even MORE expensive.
[Reply]

That's my hotel. Love it. Especially when you get a balcony on Main. Wish it had better parking though
