Stadium Discussion

If they remove the parking lot and put whatever (a casino) in it's place, it loses the ability for tailgating (and I suppose the USTA won't be happy either). Tailgaiting was the one benefit of Citi Field that Yankee Stadium didn't have. You lose that and they're both the same in terms of the fan experience outside the stadium.

You can still tailgate in the park. Just becomes more of a PIA. I’d probably bring those disposable bbqs so i can just leave everything when I was done.

Corona Park! It's like a 4 minute walk.

I think the issue is where to put the tailgating materials during a game if you come without a car.

Yeah have to bring exactly what you need and a disposable Q.

You should. It’s a classic. Also, has one of the best soundtracks ever. 1993 & they chose to have hiphop & grunge stars collaborate on each track. I can’t remember them all, but pretty sure Ice-T does one (and is in the film), Pearljam, and I’ll always remember the De La Soul/Dinosaur Jr track. That’s for sure my favorite.

I also recently heard of this movie for the first time from the Always Sunny Podcast. They mention that the building used for Paddy's Pub in IASIP is also in some shots in Judgement Night:

Then a few minutes later when discussing the writing process, they mention the soundtrack:

Seems like I have to watch this movie now.

Everything a soundtrack should be.

I’d like one there. But would prefer it at aqueduct or Belmont.

I'm just saying what the heat is about. I would agree that the aqueduct would be better for a Casino.

Thinking back to that time we tried to plan a Forums poker game at Ryan’s Daughter. Those were the days.

Isn't there already a casino at Aqueduct?
