As a kid, I attended quite a few games at both Ebbets Field, and The Polo Grounds, in the 50's..and both were DUMPS...just the absolute pits..

Even worse, a few years later, my dad got season tix for the Titans..the name before The Jets, and they played 3 season, I think, at the Polo Grounds..before the team moved to Shea. I remember vividly, and very fondly, going to the games with my dad, but the place was disgusting..

We were in NY last year and my son and I walked where both the Polo Grounds and Ebbets Field were and it felt creepy. I was overjoyed to be walking in those spaces and standing at the location of home plate of the Polo Grounds Cobb, Ruth, DiMaggio, Mays, had been RIGHT THERE, but it had a bad vibe - and although I had looked forward to being there, it was odd I could not wait to get away.
