Admin Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Just noticed the tiles along the top of the section above the Clevelander are now solid blue. That's worth noting as they were originally those tiles that started red and then gradually changed to green. It would be a mission to change all those colored tiles everywhere. That's good, hope they do it all over. Looks better this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmc523 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Share Posted December 30, 2018 They haven't replaced the padding but they have painted the concrete parts of the wall and the blue looks to be the same shade as the seats...

Just noticed the tiles along the top of the section above the Clevelander are now solid blue. That's worth noting as they were originally those tiles that started red and then gradually changed to green. It would be a mission to change all those colored tiles everywhere. I'm assuming they just painted over them rather than going through the effort and expense of replacing tiles. That was actually one of my favorite styling features in the park, along with the transitioning "speckled" floor - I wonder if that will go away too. ---- I had forgotten to post these pictures I took before Christmas. New exterior signage has been installed on many of the signs outside. Though not every one has been installed yet. Didn't get an interior pics, but from what I could see, it looked like the SRO section in the right field corner was about done. Obviously looking through the windows in the outfield, I can't see much as far as progress goes on the new center field SRO area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 @rmc523 I wonder if any employees have noticed your creepy ass stalking that place once a week lol. And it means nothing but the new brown and dark orange color scheme of the majority of the seating map is ugly as shit! I'm sure brown and orange are cheaper colors for a seating map so Jeter obviously went with those colors to save money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Looks kind of plain all blue. From what I remember in the artist rendering, they're going to put ivy up on the batter's eye and the State Farm area and that looked really nice. So once that comes in, the blue should look alright.

Haha, I've wondered that too - there's probably a guy in the security booth going "hey look, here's that guy again". At least this last time, I went to the team store, so it wasn't just solely wandering around taking pictures lol. --- Agreed, the seating chart colors aren't the prettiest. From what I remember in the artist rendering, they're going to put ivy up on the batter's eye and the State Farm area and that looked really nice. So once that comes in, the blue should look alright. Yeah, I'm sure it'll look better when viewed as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised it isn't black and white with just shades of gray. Color ink costs more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I am surprised it isn't black and white with just shades of gray. Color ink costs more. Or surprised it isn't just the mini pocket schedules taped onto the sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better yet - the magnet ones just stuck on, with a big "take one.....please!" sign next to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm literally only a fan if the team looks nice, well-groomed [or clean-shaven], and with firm buttocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Let's get this thread back on topic, though. lol Appreciate the updates from @SilverBullet and @rmc523 - good stuff so far and I hope we get more soon. ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureGM Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I don't understand why they are bothering with a SRO section in a stadium they can never fill. At least when I did it in 2002 at PacBell for the Giants, it was because everything else was sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap tickets to target a younger audience, it doesn't have to be sold out for a couple college guys to say "Hey let's get those SRO tickets and have a few beers at the game tonight." I think it's a great idea regardless of attendance factors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
