We still have plenty of stadiums in there though. Before the Vet was imploded we had five in there, that was a bit crazy, four is still a lot though. Anyway, it will definitely be weird to go back home and see that the monstrosity is gone.
I believe that Philadelphia is the only city to have all four teams' stadiums in one place. It was pretty cool seeing 5 of them there. Citizen's Bank park looks great, and I love the brick on the outside. It looks old-fashioned, and even the lights are similar to the older ballpark style. I feel like going down to Patteson Ave. to check out the rubble from the Vet.
