I’ve stayed in the hotel a couple times. Would be doing other things then come back have a drink and watch the jays game from the restaurant was pretty cool. That was when they were good though.

I remember when a couple had the drapes open and were nude having sex during the game. Good times

I was shocked to hear this week that they closed Windows Restaurant. Apparently they took it out in 2013.

I always meant to watch a game there.

Oh well.

I went to Wembley stadium last year and holy (frank), you walk up so many ramps just to get to the door even if you have seats close to the field.

Yeah, that does sound awesome, but it's also a limited group of people that'll get to do that. I just didn't like the feel of the park. Kind of tough to explain and probably has to do with my expectations being lofty from having gone to Fenway all of the time.

Perfect location. That's the sucky thing. They can't tear-it-down and build one there in 1 offseason.

That's why Vegas has succeeded in the NHL. Amazing location.

Comerica Park is pretty cool now; gentrification, Detroit Rock City downtown is pretty happening with lots of breweries, etc. Still sketchville if you stray off the beaten path though and pretty depressing driving in from Windsor. Ghost town in the suburbs.

They added the strike box for every pitch now so it's full on video game, just without the fun and excitement.

I heard Camden Yards is pretty awesome.


Also heard if you take a wrong turn you could be in an episode of the wire with Omar hunting you down for sport.

Looks like a serviceable bottom 6 guy to me.

I've seen bigger busts.
