How can we speak of vintage WF without mourning the end of daylight-only baseball? I loved a few afternoons with my son John, a beer, a dog and a cigar. priceless afternoons.
Those pictures may be 35 or 40 years old. Those men may be around 25 in the pics and 60 - 65 now. It's not the job, it's not the sun, it's simply time.

Hot dog price then: 3 for a buck. Hot dog price now: 7 bucks for 1.

$6.49 so a damn fine guess! up this year from $6.25 it's been at a while.

$7? That’s it? I’d have assumed a dog at an MLB park was close to twice that.

My uncle's dad was pretty famous at the old Metrodome in Minneapolis, Wally the Beer Man.

Isn't your uncle's dad your grandpa?
HUMPTYGUMP
He's married to my mother's sister so he's my uncle but his dad isn't my grandpa.

I liked “then” better, before the whole city block turned into something only rich people can enjoy.

Each and every one of them looks like they would've been a good time at a party.

I was a good vendor in the local arena. The job is a hoot. The clients are typically super happy.

Damn, i didn't realize how much that job ages you. Didn't know it was so stressful.

When telemarketers call this is the address I give them.
WeCanDoBetter9
When websites require info I don’t need or want to give, I too use 1060 W. Addison and the phone # is of course… (312) 588-2300.
