You'd think that would make it nicer. I prefer the Wallingford side, with Murphy's and especially Lenny's - a world class Dive.YellowSnow said:

I went to Catholic school, we wore a fucking uniform. I think the cheap clothes my mom bought were called Tough Skins or something stupid like that. All the poor kids wore them.TurdBomber said:

Sicks stadium... somehow MLB didn't think that this 25,000 max stadium was up to their rigorous standards ~ go figure... I do fondly remember sitting in the informality to watch Rainier Baseball as a kid.

I do fondly remember sitting in the informality to watch Rainier Baseball as a kid.playedwarmed up there in the AAA state championship game. Tom Niedenfuer beat us in 11 innings, IIRC. 30 years later, I dumped a chunk of my life savings on a "Remodel of the Century" at the Lowes that stands there now...
Edit: It says it "closed" in '76, but we were there in '77...along with the pigeon and seagull shit. Skinned infield, they were playing fast-pitch there, I later heard from a friend. -
I spent a small fortune at that Lowes too
-
So they were selling the stadium the rapidly growing locally owned company [CX Corporation] i worked for needed a large manufacturing space so they bought the land and ripped down the stadium and built the new facility... I worded there for a couple of years before the company was sold to a swiss mega corporation the bought the company for the patents and technology which competed with their products and promptly laid off the 400-500 people that worked there.... so no its a lowes and probably some other stores as well?

To the best of my recollection (limited, because I’m a BOOMER), there was a large facility directly east of the Lowes building (shared porking lot), not sure what it was at that tim, but it was big.TheRoarOfTheCrowd said:So they were selling the stadium the rapidly growing locally owned company [CX Corporation] i worked for needed a large manufacturing space so they bought the land and ripped down the stadium and built the new facility...

So did I, but our pants were salt & pepper corduroys until about 4th grade, when the SJWs made us switch to green jeans, recommending Toughskins. Fucking SJWs ruin everything.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

Rebel that I was, I refused, and went with JCP Super Denims (who remembers the robot commercials?) instead of Sears Toughskins.
JCP clothes were always better than Sears shit. So I stayed one step above the pours at my catholic school. -

Catholic schools wore uniforms as a way of socialism to prevent the pours from feeling pour because we all had to wear the same thing. It didn’t work because the pours like me could see the difference in the clothing brands.DerekJohnson said:

People with a sense of humor and liked to have fun. Now they have a stick up their asses.
12:30Pm Husky games start times. Crisp walks to the game with dads.
Fans that showed up to games early and cared. Vs coming late and fucking around on their phones before leaving early. -
The shoes, jewelry and jackets gave away the class differences, as well.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

I’ve been out of Seattle long enough that I look up all 3 schools on Google maps just to make sure HR was closest to us. It also helps that momma Nacho went to school there.TurdBomber said:
