Atmosphere: 4/5?

Fans: "Their only flaw is that they get down on their team too easily..."

ROI: 4/5 ?!?!?


"The vignette lasted only a minute out of the initial one-hour show, but reinforced perceptions of how the organization is run. When the owner offers his "wild thought," everyone speaks carefully -- or not at all -- so as not to contradict the boss."

I have no issue with the stadium besides the failure of Mikey to acknowledge former greats.
Not having a Ring of Honor or something of the sort is mind blowing.
Instead of looking at concrete below and above the empty luxury suites, there should be names and numbers of some great players.
The Tiger at midfield looks generic.

Tailgating is top of the line, the cops leave you alone as long as you are not being an idiot.
Parking is not bad and if you are tight azz, you can park in town and walk a few blocks.

No bars, but that is on the idiots running clowncill.

Next year the much needed new video system will be in place.

I have sat in just about every section...not a bad seat in the house.

Its plain...boring...cheap...and absolutely ZERO character .....much like the product.

I haven't been there since this happened. What year was that--late 90s? Pre-MBS.com......


But yeah, I remember it being very cold--like a funeral parlor or morgue. No character whatsoever.

They could have at least had a Munoz Statue up for the love of f*cking God.

I like the stadium itself but the atmosphere has to get a 1 out of 5. No bronze statues, no jerseys up, no halftime anything, the guy calling the game's voice is about as exhilarating as listening to Ben Stein give a lecture on heroin. The graphics, music, everything but the team, is second rate. The team? They are usually 3rd rate.

The stadium itself is OK. I don't think it wows you but it has a nice, simple design.

"We do do, and we do it at a very, very high level," Lewis said.

Haven't been there. Based on the pics on the website, the place does seem to have an impersonal cold feel. Looks a facility designed to look good from an aerial view, not an on-site view.

What I don't understand is that both stadiums were built at about the same time.... Yet GABP is overflowing with character and tributes to the history of the team. I think it is one of the best ballparks I have been to.

Now you may say that the bungles don't have any history and who are they going to pay tribute to and you may be right.....but besides Munoz (greatest bungle ever - i think it would be embarrasing to have your lone statute of an OL) you do have Paul Brown that you have named your stadium after....throw up a statute of this guy. Or perhaps they think the fans will trash it,

I just don't understand how you built two stadiums simutainously and they are at the exact opposite ends of the spectrum. Mind boggling.
