Best Regards,

I was just there in September and both statues are still in the hall. Incredible detail right down to wiskers on Ted's face. I spent two days with my brother in law (both of our first trip) and it was absoultly awesome. There are so many incredible things to mention about the hall. There is an awesome picture of Clemente tipping his hat to the crowd while walking to his spot in the outfield, for some reason it really spoke to me.

I also watched a game a doubleday field which is a great place to watch a game. While watching I noticed one team's jersey's read "The Aparicios" (spelling might be off). Anyway, I learned it was a team put together by Luis Aparicio's son. One of the players told me you can play on the field for about $450 (Umpire included) just need to schedule months in advance.

Cooperstown cafe is a must for breakfast.

You'll have a blast, enjoy!
