Metropolitan Stadium

Cats VS Crows 53 thousand middle aged drunk blokes jumping out of their seats howling at the umpires to give the boys a free. This is the atmosphere that I am most familiar with. Usually the winter weekends begin with an hour long train ride into the city along with the agonising hope that the train will go express to Adelaide. “Ding”, a rush of red, blue and yellow rush out the doors. My dad and I squeeze through the electric crowds on the way to the oval, it is difficult not to smile with…

situation occurred with beloved Dodger Stadium. Home to many championships, and Hall of Famers, Dodger Stadium has become one of the best-known baseball parks in the nation due to it being the third oldest ball. It is home to the Major League Baseball team The Los Angeles Dodgers, who once played in Brooklyn Dodgers. The Dodger Stadium only stands where it does because of the many homes lost in the late 1940s in what is called Chavez Ravine. Dodger stadium has become a historical landmark in…

George Lucas once said, “Power corrupts, and when you're in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they're actually not.” This theme is very evident and important in House of the Scorpion as some of the characters are very powerful and cannot properly handle their power. House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer documents the journey of Matt, who is the clone of a powerful drug lord. After being injured, he goes to the Big House and meets this drug lord, who has lived for over…

“Amazing. Champion. Legend. All these words describe the world renown quarterback Tom Brady. The world looks to him as an inspirational leader, and the day he disappeared everyone was shocked and sad,” read Mr. Bozenau’s boss from Tom Brady’s file. “Winston, I’ve decided it’s about time that you do something, so this case is yours. Make sure to go through every piece of evidence and don’t forget anything.” Winston could hardly contain himself. It was his very first case since being hired over…

Field in Atlanta, Georgia, is something I believe people must experience at some point in their lifetime. Watching the Braves play on the television is a daily ritual for my family, but nothing compares to seeing the 2-D version of the players and stadium coming to life right before my eyes when I visit Turner Field. Excitement builds up inside of me as my family and I make the trek to enter the baseball…

I used to go through the motions not making anything out of my life. That was until my dad took me to a Twins game. Ticket in hand I was excited. On this mild day in June I was going to my first Twins game in the new stadium. The sights and sounds of the city of Minneapolis filled my senses. The scrapping of the metro coming to a halt is all I hear. Ticket vendors were doing anything to sell their tickets for tonight's game. Many people dressed in Minnesota Twins attire unpacked from the train…

Walking up and down the vast multitude of stairs at Fenway Park is nothing short of a battle. Paired with a thirty-pound case of Italian Ices, I am challenged to maintain a cheerful salesman's attitude and my breath. This forces me to frequently rush through encounters with those I'm selling to. However, some encounters are quite different. On a sweltering day in July, I was lucky enough to be selling Italian ice instead of hot pizza or sticky cotton candy. These frosty treats were in high…

Different reasons can be nominated as causes of cities become a megacity. People coming from rural areas trying to find a better condition of life maybe are the major reason of the population growth in most megacities. However, with a big agglomeration of people and a big city, the government has to not let the problems assume control of the city. Problems such as…

As we moved into the industrial, factories and city centers began being built. There arose a need for adequate living arrangements for the people that worked in the factories and city centers.
