But my kids, who don't know any better, want to go to the ballpark. Should I say no?
Dave, times have changed. Friends have told me that the new stadium isn't as nearly as noisy as it once was and that's probably due to the fact that the blue-collar (and some white-collar) working people can no longer afford to go there any more.

Watch the game on TV and as the camera scans the stadium all you see are people on the cell phones; they aren't even paying attention to the game.
