I was about 4 yrs old when the Astrodome was built, being born and living half my life there, I had been there many times. I guess it's NRG Astrdome now (thanks Google) with mostly a tear down and redo of the old stadium.
Back to the original subject, the registry is a legal drug for many. Not quite as many on this forum but still out there...To each their own!

It was played in a stadium they built in what was to be parking lot for the Astrodome which was under construction at the time. I think the stadium was sold to Mexico and may still be in use. It was called Colt stadium at the time, I think. The classic Ernie Banks batting stance is etched in my memory.. I was 13 then and now I’m 75.
