Reese Stadium, the home of Yale Lacrosse. Attended the Ivy League Championship against Brown and it…read morewas a fun game! Nice size stadium with plenty of seats and a great view no matter the spot. The bathrooms are located outside in the pavilion and they are disgusting. Old school urinal that looks like a giant sink. No soap or paper towels in the bathroom didn't help. The parking was conveniently located on a dirt lot outside the stadium. $10 to park and another $11 for the game ticket. Definitely worth another trip when Brown is back in New Haven.

This is a review of the Yale University athletic fields just across Central Avenue from the…read morestadium. During the 1950s, these athletic fields surrounded a complex of married student housing units. The address for this complex was 70 Central Avenue. The houses were quonset huts with corrugated metal roofs. In the summer, we threw punctured water hoses over our roof to keep it wet and to cool down the inside. Each quonset hut was divided in half, for use for two different families. The front door for each half resided at opposite sides of the quonset hut. The family occupying the other half of our quonset was the Anamunthado family from Bermuda. The inside of their home had a bad smell. My photographs show me, my mother, me and my sister at Halloween, one of my parties inside our quonset hut showing my friends from Edgewood Elementary School, and me and my sister inside the quonset hut wearing Davy Crockett hats. The athletic fields to the north were used for football practice, and I enjoyed viewing the large sleds with huge pads, where the pads were used for football players for shoving and pushing. Another athletic field was indoors, and this was an indoor polo field where students could ride horses and play polo. On a couple of occasions, I cut across the athletic field to the north on my way to school, and I crawled under the fence at the northeast corner of the field, but usually I took the sidewalk the entire way to Edgewood School. In one of my photos, you can see a girl (not a relative) wearing an Edgewood School shirt. In 1960, the quonset huts were torn down and we moved to Seattle.

My friends invited me along to see Shinedown, my first visit to this venue not far from my house…read more I opted to take an Uber to avoid dealing with the parking which I have been warned is frustrating. My friends drove and (they had free parking) I met up with them there. The train stops pretty much next door to the venue. I liked the layout of the place and we spent our time watching from the 4th floor where the skyboxes are located. Excellent views and nice to be able to get up and walk around the entire floor. Acoustics were a bit muffled but not sure if that was just for this event. It was really loud. Limited food options so I would definitely suggest eating beforehand. Drinks of course were ridiculously expensive and all had to be paid by card, but the staff was fast and friendly. Getting out of the venue took a little time with all trying to leave at the same time, but not unlike any other venue. I definitely would come to this venue again but would again choose not

Parking sucked, took crazy long to get into the parking area. It was also cash only when on their…read morewebsite it said card only which was confusing. Thankfully we had cash cause we would have been screwed otherwise after having waited an hour in line and no signs warning about it before you got to the attendants. It was $30 for parking for the show which being from NY didn't shock me too much as I've paid worse but I felt i should warn others so they are prepared. lol. The train station is right next to the arena so it would be a good alternative to avoid the parking fiasco. The bag policy is also kinda crazy? Took me forever to track down a bag that met its criteria. Also fair warning they don't allow you in with cigarettes, lighters, or anything like that. They seem crazy strict here. The concessions stand and merch section bottle necks before the show so unless you wanna stand there crowded like sardines I would recommend taking some time during a set to go grab what you want as it is much easier. Even if it does mean missing some music time. It saves you so much time, aggravation, and claustrophobia lol. Drinks are also SUPER expensive. Overall I would probably see a show here again, but it wouldn't be my first choice of venue.
