"Resto Mod"

If it ends up being an Italian restaurant would it be  a "Pesto" Mod?

Good, even further increases the chances that i won't live to see it.

Even if you don't, we can always unfreeze you with Ted Williams and give you both a ride to Oreo Park at Camden Yards in a self-driving autonomous car so you can still see it.

With advanced medical breakthroughs ,you should. Of course you will not need a scoreboard or sound system by then. You will  with googles that  have great sound and watch instant replays on them. Beer will be in pill form at $200 a pill. Hot dogs also at $100. 

In the future, baseball games will just be simulations played in VR.  Only the casinos will be real.  I am only partly joking.  I mean one of the top "sports" of kids today is watching competitions of kids playing video games.

The Ravens signed the lease at the end of 2022 and upgrades starting 2024. Orioles signed lease end of 2023 and can get projects started 2025. So almost same timeline but the Oriole season goes past July so can't start upgrades till after the season.

The lease specifies that the bonds would be issued no later than July 1, 2025, so the team could develop plans (though given the requests in Exhibit 1, I wouldn't be surprised if that has already started), and potentially gain approval during this upcoming season, with work beginning after the season ends, in November (if we're lucky). Now will the team be that proactive? I hope so, but possibly not, but it appears they certainly can start as soon as next season ends for major construction projects. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a similar timeline as the ravens and have a 2-3 season staggered plan, starting next offseason.

Oh. I thought the reason we weren't getting Adley or Gunnar extensions is that John Angelos is a friend of the working man and wants to keep prices down. How very odd that his priority would be to tear out cheap seats to build "social spaces" (i.e. expensive restaurants and bars).

The ever-important seats that haven't had people in them in years. Protect them at all costs.

I’d prefer it on the other side. That side we already have the flag court and the warehouse, why mess with that?

Flag court is low rent dead space.

This $600 million into this stadium should make some pretty exciting updates.  Kind of like having a new stadium with all the charm of the great footprint of this existing building.

Honestly I think back at the Guardian's announcements for their updates for Progressive field. Same architects as Camden Yards, and opened soon after. They have some pretty cool ideas that seem to sound similar to the requests/plans for OPACY. There's a good video on MLB showing a lot of these updates:

Agreed. I also hate the idea that it may block a lot of Eutaw Street HR balls.
