Stadiums Usa Radio

Wrigley Field is front and center in the baseball world. The gentleman at the controls of the new outfield scoreboard system at the Friendly Confines is Qamar Zaman. He joins us to talk about the view from the Press Box and how the new boards are changing the fan experience. Also, four generations of family have experienced baseball through the gates at iconic Tiger Stadium in Detroit.  We re-visit the grand ole ballpark with author Tom Stanton, who details the intimacy of the park and his time spent with Hall of Fame broadcaster Ernie Harwell. And we trace the history of the NFL's oldest stadium- Soldier Field in Chicago. Author Paul Michael Peterson talks about the massive renovation project that placed a stadium within a stadium, and the historic events that define the grand venue along Lake Michigan.
