County Stadium is no more. I never got to a game there, darnit. Though I've watched many games played there on TV, listened to many more on radio [via the downlow].

Lots of the new stadiums are really cool and plenty of them have been good for baseball. It's still really hard to see the old ones get torn down, though. Because there are so many memories there-- whether you've been there in person or not. And I guess it's weird for me because I'd always planned to visit more stadiums and I never managed to get to a lot of them that are no more. Yet another lesson in how one needs to do stuff while one can, rather than put things off.

Yes, I'll even mourn the Metrodome when and if it goes away. I really want a new baseball stadium in Minnesota (I know I'm in the minority here, sigh). But I've spent so many hours in the Metrodome and I've witnessed history there (Game 7, 1991 World Series. 'nuff said). It's an awful stadium, but I love it anyway.
