Got my dad this for his birthday yesterday. He and my mom attended Game 6 where the @reds defeated the @pittsburghpirates for the 1990 National League Pennant. @lostballparks #riverfrontstadium #cincinnatiredsbaseball #cincinnatireds #reds #redsbaseball #nationalleague #pennant #baseball #majorleaguebaseball #cincinnatiohio #cincinnati #cvg #cinergyfield #program (at Riverfront Stadium) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaDrJs1v86P/?utm_medium=tumblr

My grandfather was a first nighter at Riverfront Stadium in Cincinnati when it opened in June 1970. I think everyone in attendance got this certificate? He also saved the ticket stub. The Reds played the Atlanta Braves that night. Not coincidentally, Riverfront looked similar to the Braves then-ballpark, Atlanta Fulton County Stadium. And Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium and Philadelphia's Veterans Stadium. Riverfront Stadium, then named Cinergy Field, was imploded in December 2002, replaced by @great_american_ballpark At least Busch Stadium in St. Louis had the good sense to incorporate arches into its multipurpose stadium design. @lostballparks @reds #cincinnati #riverfrontstadium #cinergyfield #ballparks #stadium #arenas #igerscincy #cincygram #cincinnatireds #cincinnatiredsbaseball #baseball #football #thejungle #cincinnatibengals #bengalsfootball #bengals #reds #redsbaseball #atlantabraves #bravesbaseball #atlantafultoncountystadium #threeriversstadium #veteransstadium #buschstadium (at Cincinnati, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWEBBYov6mL/?utm_medium=tumblr

This Schoenling Brewery sign has hung in my grandparents basement forever. It's a snapshot of the Cincinnati skyline I remember from growing up. #schoenling #schoenlingbeer #cincinnatiskyline #cincinnati #riverfrontstadium #cinergyfield #cincinnatiohio #cincygram #igerscincy (at Fort Thomas, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Pa_KuHgKD/?igshid=1fo31uw9xi0uw
