Blackshirt Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Im sure most have heard by now that the City of Omaha is eliminating RVs from the CWS / aka Dingerville. Well personally I think they're making a foolish decision which could ultimately cost Omaha the Series. I know e-petitions are for the most part worthless, but Im going to start one anyway - at least we'll make some noise, and you never know who might end up reading it and offer some land for a new Dingerville. I'll post the petition link when it's ready, and link to this thread for discussion. Anyone up for helping with this? Save Dingerville! Quote Link to comment
huskerfan500 Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I agree, but I believe Harrah's is sponsering a Dingerville there Quote Link to comment

ohiohusker Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 What is the problem? Why did they decide to eliminate RV's? Sounds like they are trying to ruin the CWS! Haven't they been trying to move it anyway? Growing up, I lived about 10 minutes from Rosenblatt and could walk to the games. Wasn't hard to get tickets in those days, but what good memories! I'll definitely sign a petition! Quote Link to comment

BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 The city isn't behind the limiting of the beer gardens. That is a request from the NCAA. Too bad about Dingerville. Another tradition lost!! Quote Link to comment

They realized that was premier real estate and they couldnt regulate it as easy as slamming some more ghey corporate tents in that space. Place is gonna turn into a freakin matrix of nike & coke tents. they'll probably clear space in left field by 2010. Quote Link to comment

DJR313 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 The CWS that I have grown up knowing is going to be all but gone in a few years. This kind of sucks. Quote Link to comment
