OT - 1977 Dodgers v Reds

[Archive]

Posted By: J Levine

So, for a time the Dodgers sold season tickets to the left field pavillion. My first season tickets were the first row of the left field pavillion. I was seats 2 and 3. I sat next to an older woman who had seat one and had been going to games since the Dodgers moved west. She would tell stories of the LA Coliseum years, that she grew up in Pasadena a few blocks from where Jackie played his first college ball, etc. I loved those seats. I had them for three years and then the Dodgers retrofitted the pavillions and stopped selling tix there. I moved my season seats up into the Reserved section and eventually down into the Loge but had to finally sell them as my friends who I split them with moved away. Every year I try to get at least one game from the front row of the pavillion.

I still think Dodger Stadium (now the third oldest in the major leagues) is one of the best parks to watch a game.
