I'll be at the game Thursday, enjoying the view and the game. Bonus: no worries that Detroitnerd will be sitting behind me bitching about everything...win-win. Originally Posted by Detroitnerd

The idea of thousands of metro Detroiters driving miles and miles to sit in a ballpark and, essentially, watch television may be the most perfect metaphor for the region yet. Reply With Quote

Comerica Park is no Fenway Park, but Comerica is a very nice ballpark and its better than those cookie-cutter stadiums of the 60s and 70s. Originally Posted by Detroitnerd

, Most people actually do care about the game and want to see their favorite players, instead of staring at an HD scoreboard for 9 innings.

The screen isn't going to be showing the game as it's being played. I think it will be great to see a replay on that screen rather than the one from the past.
I also think of other things they can do with it. When I was in Washington, D.C. they had movies scheduled to be played after certain games. I think the Tigers tried showing a movie once at Comerica Park...not the same with a screen this size.
A huge improvement and basically a standard for parks today. Reply With Quote
