Even some of the stadiums that still do have artificial grass have improved the quality of it. The old Metrodome (it has a new name now, not sure what it is) has put in a new surface to where a ground ball no longer acts like it was hit onto a trampoline and bounce over fielders heads.

You made it to the AFI/Silver and only give it a mention as a passing glance sort of thing? Did yo make it into the booth(s) or anything.
Nope; I was hoping you'd be there to give the grand tour!

Yeah, it looks like the Metrodome has installed that same piss yellow/puke green-looking crap that Tropicana Field has.

Hasn't the place always been officially called the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome?

Michael,
You can never visit anything in Chicago without taking in at least some of its corruption in the process..... I'd bet that 3.00 of thet 7.00 go to Richie Daley [Eek!] !

Remember, I don't work at the AFI/Silver....just installed the cinema aspects of it. One shouldn't assume that I'm going to be there on any given day.
