Ray on the final day of baseball at Globe Life Park
Nice farewell ceremonies
Sunday game time 2:05 pm and temp of 94 degrees or so. Damn freakin' hot for us in the upper upper deck (2 rows from shade). Whew! It's not supposed to be that hot at the end of September
So while some folks lament the loss of a lovely 25 year old ball park, I'm excited. See that metal work in the distance. Amen and Hallelujah - new Globe Life Field will have a retractable roof and air conditioning.
Oh and we got free T-shirts. This is me with Esperanza. Her husband had our free tickets.
Very nice!
Free still equals over $50 - parking, food, one beer, one soda, water, and yes, more water.
Fun day farewell. (and the Texas Rangers beat the dreaded Yankees. But we kinda stink and are not in the playoffs)
Hi Joanne - that's amazing to see the new stadium ... but glad you had a happy final (even if hot) day ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletethanks. It was a good day
DeleteWonderful pics Joanne. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
thanks
DeleteLooks like you had a good time. But, baseball isn't suppose to be played in air conditioned spaces. I can understand the emotional attachment long term fans probably have for the old stadium. Maybe the new one won't be so modern that it doesn't have that personal feel to it. I've been in both new and old stadiums...blending of the two would be ideal.
ReplyDeleteTraveling Suitcase
baseball wasn't originated in TX, etc - so yeah, outdoor stadiums made sense. Baseball would never have been created here in the heat of 100 degrees!
DeleteI'm glad you had a good time, but I can't hack being out in the hot sunshine for that many hours any more. It's supposed to be 97 here tomorrow, and all the other forecast highs have been a few degrees lower than what we actually got, so who knows? All I know is I'm tired of all these record-breaking high temperatures. Nothing like a nice crisp 90+ degree fall day, eh?
ReplyDeleteyou and me both. This humidity is killing me!
DeleteThat's young for a stadium. It's sad when the really old ones get torn down.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I could've handled the heat though.
the old one shall be used for XFL football and concerts. It's sticking around
DeleteLooks like fun. I agree that a roof and air conditioning would be welcome additions.
ReplyDeleteand you are in Ohio! cooler than here
DeleteSounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteyep!
DeleteUpdating is a perfect idea.
ReplyDeleteexactly. I think they should have retrofitting a roof on to the old stadium
DeleteAC will sure be appreciated in the new stadium with temps that high.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to be cool
