Photo Tour Of Coors Field (Part 2)

Yesterday we took you out to Coors Field where we spent a lot of time at the brewery. Today let’s walk around a little.

Nice to see Wheatley at the Grill.

When I buy the Rockies I am changing the mascot to Rocky the mule. This is Dinger. L-a-m-e.

Too many ads for my taste. Every ballpark since Camden looks the same now.

I’m surprised that the Mets didn’t add pine trees and water spouts when making contrivances like the Pepsi porch and the irregular fence.

“Rockies” – is that the name of the bank that sponsors the stadium?

Man, James Bond sent me more pictures of the microbrewery (see yesterday). Watch the game dude.

It’s the Something Yard Deli. Lines seem pretty short. I wonder if their credit card machines work, unlike certain stadiums I can think of.

Uni Watch (awesome site) mentioned these the other day and I thought it was a neat idea. Would you wear a Mets one? They’d probably give the tour a lame name though.

Photo Tour Of Coors Field (Part 1)

Before Joe Torre sends them packing, I thought it would be fun to explore Coors Field. First let me say that it’s amazing that a stadium still has the original name.

This outside looks very nice to me.

So my friend that took these is some sort of International Man of Mystery. He leaves the city every weekend and drinks. So of course he sent us pictures of the microbrewery.

A microbrewery at Citi would be a cool idea…maybe some Brooklyn Brewery action to make Fred happy. I wonder if Jeff is a Mets fan or if he likes the Dodgers too?

Hey there’s some old pictures of…..Dodgers???? Looks like we have a lot in common with Colorado. Oh wait, there’s a NY Giant – forget it.

Like I said, this guy travels and drinks beer…maybe he’ll take us inside eventually….but the bar does look fun (and Citi sure could use something like this – or a “Stan’s” over on 126th.)

Well we’ve finally made it to the seats, looks like we have good ones – and Huston Street is on the mound.

The netting annoys me, but looks like James Bond had nice seats.

Looks kind of nice. These were taken on Sunday 9/27 when the Rockies were trying to bag a wild card…I guess everyone was watching the Broncos.

Enjoy the snow, more from Coors Field tomorrow.

Does Chip Caray Have Bad Seats?

I'm going to join the chorus of people who find Chip Caray to be awful.

I think he still isn't sure if Teixeira's ball went out. He calls
things "fly ball" when other announcers would say "blooped."

On the radio side, early in the game Sterling and Suzyn were saying
how new Yankee was as loud as the old one. The beat reporters were
tweeting that it was quiet. Mr. Sunshine my Yankees friend said it
was loud for game 1 but he's trying really hard to pretend he likes
the place.

My New Favorite Blog: Nice Try UFL

If you like this site, this one has the same vibe: Nice Try UFL.

I totally forgot the game was on…was a rare night to watch regular TV (aka non Mets, non Yankee-playoffs). The Office was good.
