That ball park watched me grow up as a kid. I was obsessed with that ball park. I loved the Friday night fireworks display.

Shoeless joe jackson played in that thing, the 1918 world series between the Cubs and Red Sox was played there so Babe Ruth pitched in the world series in that thing.

I don't blame them for having too much security. Between the riot that happened at the end of the last game at Forbes Field in 1970 and what happened on Disco Demolition Night in 1979, they didn't want to take the chance. You just don't know. Better to be too safe rather than not safe enough.
