This seemed like a nice area in general and I look forward to making it back there soon!jimeradohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13401035051139778895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046605671750890598.post-38452091737878161662014-01-29T11:08:27.289-08:002014-01-29T11:08:27.289-08:00When I was a kid growing up in Davenport, we used ...When I was a kid growing up in Davenport, we used to sneak into John O'Donnell Stadium (It's former name). We'd get one of the neighborhood parents to drive us down and we'd have coupons for free tickets with an empty PBR can. If not, we'd sneak in via the left field fence. That was when they were the Angels affiliate. Fast forward 25+ years later and it's a superb park. We always enjoyed sitting on the third base side facing the river. When the casino boats used to go up and down the river, they'd play their calliope by the stadium when they went under the bridge. They've also added a berm around the park due to the annual Miississippi River flooding. I have some great memories of that place.Comatoadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13586730611415248483noreply@blogger.com
