They just added a smaller 2nd team store this year down 3rd base line, now expanding the original (and will house Sarpy County tourism) and adding more hospitality space behind home plate: https://www.milb.com/omaha/news/chasers-partner-with-sarpy-county-tourism-for-expansions-at-werner-park/c-29419...

Good to know about the Centris Fun Zone. My kids always want to go in there, but I don't feel like paying $5-7 each to go down a slide and ride a carousel. Unfortunately you can't signup at the game, but you can signup for an account online and they send you a debit card in a few days.... Now watch...

Who did Channel 6 end of replacing Malorie Maddox with? I can't remember seeing any big push on the new anchor.

I'd like to see them do this match once at PBA. Love that arena, would be cool to see VB in there.

Sounds like a really good time in front of a big time crowd. Looks like Cook has another fun team this year.

When it comes to attendance I wonder how the prom's impact this. The Chasers do not do nearly as much in the way of free or discounted tickets as they did when they were at the much larger Blatt. That is fine with me but is that the same case as say Des Moines, or any of a number of other places? C...

Since Westroads and Oakview got bought out my Brookfield Asset Management what changes do you want to see to both malls besides remodeling.

If the economy ever does really turn around and the masses can afford to shop at mall stores again..........they will have made a great investment. Until the economy turns around they will lose money from day 1. We could have the best economy of the last 50 years and enclosed malls will not be comi...

Most of these 15 brand new hotels are along or very near to their new streetcar line, including its extension to the Plaza. Something for Omaha to ponder. Great point. It's already popular, once they get the extension underway and completed to Westport/Plaza area, it will be wildly popular. Since i...

For the Cubs fans:

Kris Bryant (most probably heard that part) is scheduled to play tonight and now it's been announced Tyler Chatwood scheduled to pitch tonight against Chasers.

I know this won't be popular.

I always associated the nickname I Back High with Central, not Omaha in general. Greg Certainly Central High has supplied multiple i-backs for NU football’s past. No question about that.

Wow, Des Moines at #15. Highest in the midwest.

With Jordy T's late depature, NU adds some inside depth. Looks to be a good get for this late in the game:

I just bought weekend passes for September on their sale. With tax and such still came in under $60 for a family of four.

Is it going to be a new location or are they moving an existing one?

Not sure. I am guessing new one since there is not another close by. But just a guess.

Meh. Not my favorite hotel company... Sounds like a nice project though. When I travel with the family they can be really good. All the extras.

Salvy at 1B tonight. I've never have seen this before. And just like that a 6-4-3 DP. I know he has been at first at least once before.

Wasn't Fahey the one that negotiated the deal with the unions that led to the spiking? I remember the fireman under his watch went crazy with it. No way Stothert could have saved Con Agra. Once they brought in the new CEO it was a done deal. He was moving them back to Chicago no matter what. That wa...

Fun. How was it? I would love to see that. I dig dinos! Jurassic Park is my favorite movie franchise, I think. I've seen "Sue" (the T-Rex unearthed in South Dakota) at the Chicago museum. I really really liked it. Like you I love the JP franchise so it was great. They also have dino movie...

Most definitely. Butera might be the most popular backup catcher in baseball. They love him in KC. Also I crack up every time watching Gordon knock off Drew's batting helmet.

I think Arop due to what happened with his brother is a long shot for NU. I think Williams is much more likely will end up at Nebraska:

Yeah there were issues with Oak View from the start. Agreed it was built too small. They had room for 2 new anchor stores after it opened (which became Sears and Penneys) but no room to add wings with them (for additional stores). So going in, it was never going to end up being the major mall in Oma...

Me too. I must of ate in the Crystal tree Dining Room 150 times and then some. That old cook they had for years was a royal pain but he could cook a mean prime rib.

Let's not forget the Lazy Leopard Lounge.
