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
