IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 The one thing i agree with is the architecture sucks, the two levels of skyboxes screws everything up. Just as the press box and those other booths take up so much room vertically. Definitely makes the upper deck s***tier than it should be.

SoxFan1 Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Notice ow the Sox never finished worse than 3rd. Notice how the Scrubs never finished better than 2nd. Division Titles since '91: Sox- 3 Scrubs- 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I definately think the two levels throw things off, but it also makes them money. I'm assuming most of the boxes are sold. If they aren't then its really a bad mistake. Still, if it was only one level of suites, the upper deck wouldn't be so steep and it would be lower. It definately would of been nice. I really think the Cell is one of the nicer parks in the majors from the ones I've seen. I'd rate it in the second group along with Edison and some other stadiums. Maybe 3rd group. And the food selection is better then almost any park in the majors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thats the case you can't really doubt that they are a sucess from a financial standpoint. I think the big thing of this renovation has to be to fix the upperdeck and maybe find a way to have a homer porch, but just a small one. I really like having open stadiums in the outfield.
