April 6, 200917 yr Please please please, i just really hope the stadium has mechanical Marlins with laser beams attached to their heads. I'm going to email David Samson about it.
April 6, 200917 yr I want a Massive Waterfall! Oh, and some f***ing number to be retired finally. 19-Conine, Lowell 10-Sheffield 23-Johnson
April 7, 200917 yr Lowell doesn't deserve a retired jersey, but Niner and Sheff definitely do. I'm on the fence about CJ.
April 7, 200917 yr Lowell doesn't deserve a retired jersey, but Niner and Sheff definitely do. I'm on the fence about CJ. I agree about Mikey. Not about Sheff. And CJ wouldn't bother me a bit. Too many folks think of his last stay here when they were all disappointed about the numbers he put up thinking he would put up the insane numbers he did in the previous year in the AL instead of his career averages. CJ meant alot to this club back in the day. And anyone that is old enough to remember his call up from AA Portland until the ugly Huizenga forced trades can tell you.
April 7, 200917 yr Is Carl Barger (sp?) the only retired number? (I'm too lazy to look this up) Yes 5 and 42 are the only retired numbers for the Marlins.
April 7, 200917 yr Yeah, but 19 is the number the current FO reconizes him wearing, check out that jersey from jeff conine day. And if your retiring Conine's 19, you might as well retire Lowells for good measure, In another ceremony. He was a big part of the 1999 to 2005 Marlins.
April 7, 200917 yr Conine wore 2 numbers. He only wore two numbers because Lowell wouldn't give him 19. He even still signs his autograph 19, as seen in this one I got from FanFest.
April 9, 200917 yr "What would you like to see in the new stadium" People in the seats for more than just opening day, watching Marlins baseball and setting seasonal attendance records daily. That would be the greatest victory of all.
April 10, 200917 yr "What would you like to see in the new stadium" People in the seats for more than just opening day, watching Marlins baseball and setting seasonal attendance records daily. That would be the greatest victory of all. Our stadium won't be big enough for that.
April 10, 200917 yr All I'd like to see is a banner that says World Champions 1997, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2011 :thumbup
April 14, 200917 yr Author Does anyone know if we are going to have bleacher seats? (like real bleachers).
April 14, 200917 yr Dart Board with Wayne's ugly face. That should actually be one of the giveaways. :lol True! What do I want? Im happy with just having seats face homeplate
April 14, 200917 yr i second a decent beer selection (perhaps local brew like holy mackerel) and good food (mmm arepas) cigar bar idea sounds interesting too
April 14, 200917 yr Dart Board with Wayne's ugly face. That should actually be one of the giveaways. cant confirm that the urinal cakes in the men's room will feature waynes ugly mug
April 16, 200917 yr Author Does anyone know if we are going to have bleacher seats? (like real bleachers). Negative. Thank you. I hate bleacher seats.
April 16, 200917 yr At the plaza outside the stadium I would like to see; 1) Bars - Sports bar, IrishEnglish Pub, Mex/Latin Pub (like Tiajuana Taxi Co.) 2) Restaraunts - La Carreta (Cuban), Chillis, TGI Fridays, Hot Dog, Hamburger Joint, Flannigan's, Chik-Fil-A 3) Retail shops - Sports Authority, The Gap, Banana Republic (most appropriate), others etc. 4) Miscellaneous - ESPN Sportszone, Ritz Camera, Outdoor batting cages and/or miniature golf course/ driving range 5) Baseball museum - General baseball artifacts as well as Marlin baseball history ( Two world championships etc.) I think if it becomes an entertainment complex, it could be a year round venue and would bring large amounts of people all the time. Also, if they build a soccer stadium on the rest of the land then they can make it an even bigger complex. More people, bigger crowds, better gameday experience. 1) Best Buy or Radioshak to buy batteries for the digital cameras 2) Dunkin donuts and Quiznos
April 18, 200917 yr Fans in the seats would be nice :lol They should have seats like in a movie theater that rock.
