This is very nice to see. Lindquist field is getting a Wrigley feel to it. You have the Front Runner a block away the Tar Pit will be similar to the bleacher bums. Granted nothing is wrigley field but this is a fun place to see a ball game. Lasorda even comes 2 to 3 times a year.

I have seen people watch games from the rooftops of the building in right field. 25th street is close by with a lot of bars and good resturaunts and for the religous types Farr's ice cream is just a couple of blocks away. The new theater complex is also in walking distance.

And the fans are fun. It is what going to the Gulls/Trappers games use to be like. It isn't like being in SLC or Orem where if you yell or you kid yells an the entire section glares at you.

Ogden and the Raptors have a good product and a great ball park. You can even take the train up to the ball park now.
