Since the last couple got closed due to a certain loony member I'll start another one.
Well....it's different...to say the least!Wow\, I might be the only person who actually likes the green from reading everyones comments. Anyways, I'll post my pics from the game in the next few days when I have time to move them from my camera to computer then flickr.

How hard was it to get to the stadium?
Despite the angst over parking, we were able to find a spot at a public garage on the Jackson hospital complex without too much hassle. Cost: $10. And even on a sold-out Opening Night, there were plenty of spaces for rent on people’s lawns. Don’t expect a bargain. Our correspondent paid $30 to park at a medical office a few blocks from the ballpark.
Public transportation was more of a challenge. The trip from downtown via Metromover and Metrorail took us one hour and 15 minutes, and much of the delay came waiting for the new Miami stadium trolley.
Located a few steps from the Civic Center Metrorail stop, the trolley stop was a frustrating place to be Wednesday evening. The first trolley we saw at 6:15 p.m. was full. The second took more than 20 minutes to arrive. Many of the fans we were in line with abandoned hope and started walking. And the narrow sidewalk meant a stream of Jackson commuters having to weave in and out of the baseball crowd.
