Re: 2024 College World Series
Just looked and all the night games are sold out. The tickets on Ticketmaster are re-sale tickets and cheapest are about $60. I really hate the way the series is run for ticket sales. I wish they would bring back GA, but that is never going to happen. The games for the championship are already well ...

Re: Downtown Soccer Stadium (Abbott Drive)
Some of that can be misleading though. They often have 2 dates with Nebraska that will draw around 10k. Without the visitors, that number drops significantly. That used to be the case, but not in recent history. Here are the totals from the past few years: 2022: 3,110 2023: 2,479 & 5,121 2024: ...

Well, Frankie Fidler is headed to Mich St. Thought that CU or Nebraska were the place where he would end up, especially after Chucky decommitted from Wisconsin.
He is a good player, but the level of competition is going to be drastically different for him.

Re: Downtown Soccer Stadium (Abbott Drive)
Agree, it would be nice for Creighton. Right now, they can get 4,000 people but the stadium is so cavernous that it feels horrible. There just isn't any demand for their tickets. Maybe if they can build a nice stadium similar to Morrison with great downtown views and make it more fan-friendly people...

Re: The Builders District at North Downtown
That view of the building looks better, but the view facing 480 looks pretty basic. Hopefully they can design a little more aesthetics to other buildings that go up in this development.

I am excited to see how everything looks this year with the redesigned park. I have stated this before, but this, in the past, was the only regular event that utilized the parks. I thought it was decent before, but hopefully it will taken to a whole new level now.

Re: Mutual of Omaha Tower (14th & Farnam)
As we can now see the parking floors are indeed wrapping around the tower on the east side. I don’t think that is the case at all. You can see in the 2nd picture I took today, it’s just scaffolding. On the sides you can see the levels of the garage but not in the middle: https://i.postimg.cc/w1Fqhz...
