Reply to comment by OneBar1905 in [SportsCenter] Albert Pujols hits a HR in his final regular season game at St. Louis by makarmackinnonstan

Fair enough. Coors field is pretty nice tho, the Oakland Coliseum on the other hand...

As an A's fan, I concur.

I recently visited the coliseum on a work trip to NorCal, try to take in games whenever I can. I understand it's very old, and not really set up best for baseball, but I thought the Treehouse was pretty cool, and Stompers playground where the kids could get blown away by Ricky Henderson was a kick. The margaritas in mason jars were pretty sweet too. Travel to and from the game on BART was pretty smooth as well.

It has character for sure and I love that it's fairly inexpensive. I've been going since I was a little kid too so there's some nostalgia. I guess my issue with it is that it really represents the team in a nutshell. The owner takes every penny and doesn't put anything back into the team.

I have it on good authority that they will make their anouncement after the world series that the A's are moving to Vagas.
