Cali Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 your closer than I am, well even closer now, but how is that new padres stadium coming along? I thought I heard there was somekind of hold up, but from the pictures I've seen it looks really badass. At least badass enough for me to make a trip down to SD in '04. You got any info?

Chisoxfn Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 Ya, its finally being built and its supposed to be real real cool. I am going to head down to the old stadium tomorrow and watch the Dodgers Padres game or at least try to. I love the stadium they have right now cause its so easy to get good seats. The new stadium will be ready after the upcoming season. For a long time they weren't building it cause some damn lawyer filed a lawsuit. Once its done it will be awesome. I still want to go up to San Fransisco and check out the New Giants Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedPinStripes Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 That looks like one bad ass park. I love the retro parks. Looks like a cross between the baker bowl and ebbits field. Too sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Why doesn't anyone try to copy the New Comiskey Park? These new retro parks have been overdone. Enough already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerbaho-WG Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 They should have built New Comiskey at Printer's Row. Right off the lake, homers flying into Lake Michigan. That'd kick ass... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just goes to show you what the taxpayers get when the goddamn owner, who knows nothing about architecture or stadium integration into a neighborhood's surroundings, gets to choose what type of ballpark WE build for him. :mad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
