It's a shame the 2 sides couldn't work out a deal, but in this day and age, teams will wait it out and find someone who will finance a stadium for them.

I live a stone's throw from Harry Grove Stadium (Frederick Keys, Single A affiliate for the O's), and I know the City doesn't want to put any more money into the stadium, so I could see something similar happening here soon.

But even if you don't like baseball, it's a good time to go to a Minor League game. Promotions between innings, seats are pretty cheap, kids get in free sometimes. I don't think I've paid to get into a game for a while now, especially now since my sister knows someone that works in the Ticketing office.

And while the food prices are close to par with the parent clubs, some of the till goes to the organization running the concession stand that night. And with the Keys, they have fireworks like 4-5 times a month now during the season, which I can conveniently hear from my house. Fun for the whole damn family.
