THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL STRUCTURES. IF YOU ARE GOING FOR A CRUISE DURING THE SUMMER. YOU CAN HANG WITH YOUR FRIENDS UNDER THEM. THEY ARE COOL DURING THE SUMMER. I AM GLAD FOR THE EXIBIT I WILL BE THERE.
"Cut to the Chase" on the name of the stadium? I didn't think Chase was involved....
Small note: There's no "new" Shea Stadium... People just can't get out of the habit, I guess.
(common sense)
SERIOUSLY THOUGH THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL STRUCTURES
