baseball fans of today are spoiled as hell. the "old" parks had lots of character and were fun to go to, including the Sounds park in Nashville.


I think you're confusing character with being a dump. Just because something is old doesn't give it character. Wrigley Field has character. The Met is just a dump.

Yep. They should play at Regions Park.


Regions Park is one of the best Stadiums in the Minor Leagues. Great backdrop and a Brew Pub next door.

This. I would not leave downtown to drive out to Hoover if I had a free ticket. There is nothing to do in Hoover but eat and shop.

I've never been to the Met, but the SEC tourney is always majority of LSU fans every year like Kentucky fans with the basketball tourney. State always travel well also.

No worries. It'll be moved to Nashville's new park soon. You know, a place people actually wanna go to.

While in a great area, Nashville's new park is boring and generic. I'd like to see it in Memphis.


Yeah man, so boring and generic......

It isn't bad by any stretch, but they could have done better imo. I think it's pretty cookie cutter.

Hoover Met is awesome. SEC Tournament should never move.

Region's is great, but the parking situation sucks.

Germantown. Decent area.. Some riff raff here and there. A good walk for a lot of fans who would stay downtown. Germantown has arguably the best restaurants in Nashville.

up and coming area. seems like it would be a real long walk from downtown tho. I can't wait to come up there again and go to a game. have many great memories of sounds games back in the day.

Another reason why Memphis is the best option. Phenomenal park. Autozone is in the heart of downtown as the fans don't have to worry about parking.

It really isn't. Maybe 15-20 minutes.

Germantown does have some pretty good restaurants but I still think East Nasty has better eateries.
