  1. I have gone to every CWS since being a young one in the 50's. I have been a season ticket holder since finishing college and returning to Omaha in 1976. My old seats in Rosenblatt were behind home and under the overhang. Protected from sun and rain. It was great. My new seats are behind third base dugout...brutal sun in the day games. GREAT seats at night. Luckily, I own a second set of seats a little past 3rd under the overhang. I sell the dugout seats for day games to the home team fans. Then sit further out in the shade. The one thing this summary got wrong is "They wanted fans to look out past the outfield bleachers and see Omaha's sprawling CenturyLink Center in the background, rather than looking out on the city where the fine people of Omaha actually live." In reality the home plate should be where the right field foul pole is and the park would face the river and Iowa. (Just like the Rosenblatt setup when every person who saw it on TV, a game or in person asked: What is that big nipple looking thing? Lied Jungle More people would have shade if they did it by tradition. And the article is right; the sun is brutal at times. The park is beautiful. On a day like today you can sit anywhere and have a wonderful experience. I sure did watching us 10 run iowa! When it gets to 80 degrees (or warmer) and no clouds, you better have seats in the shade. They committed an error that can't be fixed. Too bad.

  5. I hate it when they tell you about an offer; but, they don't tell you how much it was? That must be behind a paywall.
  6. I had to pick the first year because every year I convince myself this is the year for our first tournament win. This year it's easier than most!
