After driving past every day and seeing it get smaller and smaller, I finally went and took some photos. This could be tough for some to see.

Boy that is painful to watch Shea slowly decay. The second shot has a great contrast of the past and future.
That is just so sad to see. It's a piece of my childhood lost. :cry:
Nice! Tear that ugly stadium down! Not like the new one's going to make los Metos any better this season!!!!
Ouch, Clark. :(

Wow, John, I said almost the same exact thing when I was interviewed for that Concorde show. Kinda weird to hear you reverberate my analogy as it applies to real life.Quote:

"The House that Ruth Built" was gone in the 1970s... reduced to rubble. That Yankee Stadium that replaced it was exactly that.. a replacement.
Shea is officially gone. There is nothing vertical, just rubble. :(
Last section was knocked down at 11:21am this morning :(
