Favorite Municipal Stadium Memory

  • Timber
    Seeing the grass infield for the first time...
    Seeing Hank Aaron reach base five times in a game
    Seeing Robin Yount his rookie year
    Seeing the Indians/Yankees largest crowd ever @ the time for a twilight bouble header
    Almost reaching a Boog Powell BP home run before gettting a forearm shiver froma big fat bastard...lol still pissed
    Seeing Gaylord perry on the mound

    As a 10 yr old... My buddies dad bought us hot dogs and put mustard on em... I looked at the brown stuff and said WTF?? (now I love it)

    The only Browns game I was in the Dog Pound for was Bernie's last game as a Brown... against those dreaded Broncos

    All in all great memories... and oh yes the poles :)

    I remember Powell looking like a giant tomato and a streaker jumping over the centerfield fence as the cops & umps chased him around the field. He had time to stop in centerfield to acknowledge rookie centerfielder, Rick Manning, and then hop back over the fence.

    I heard rumors this was either BRF or Ringz, either care to confirm this :)

    My fondest memory of that stadium is when my father and a student of mine and I attended the Kent State-Air Force game in 1976. Kent played that game in front of 70,000 empty seats.

    It wasn't me. I am unable to run naked due to my freakishly large man parts.

    And don't forget the banging of those wooden seats to make noise. And the famous JULIO call in echoing in that nearly empty stadium.
