  1. Hey Kyle! I really enjoyed this piece, this is really interesting concept of reviewing stadiums, and as a avid sports fan I love learning about all that sports have to offer, and stadiums are definitely a big aspect in that. I like how you described the theme of the stadium and it being old-fashioned, thats super cool that it also started a trend among other ballparks. This was awesome!
