Beginning in 1895, the dawn of professional baseball, and for more than 100 years onward, there was a stadium at this intersection in downtown Detroit. First Bennett Park, then in 1912, Navin Field (opened the same day as Boston’s Fenway), later renamed Tiger Stadium in 1961. But on the day this shot was taken, August 9, 2008, there was demolition.
I was lucky. I didn’t know much about tennis. And even less about how to get a ticket to one of the sport’s premiere events. But sitting in my Paris hotel room about 6pm, one year ago today, I figured it was time for a change. I didn’t know who was playing. Didn’t care.
I’m not sure whether this production can be considered “scaled down” when compared to the last time I saw a U2 stadium show on the PopMart tour, with…
Camden Yards, Orioles vs Tigers. Tigers won.
