What's this?

Stadiums were built to last 50-100 years awhile go. Lucky to get 20 out of


them now. Partially because they are mostly just erector sets anymore and partially because owners/fans demand something different.

In this specific case, it doesn't help much that FedEx was never a good stadium, even when new.
