Shea is gone

I just received word from the posters at baseball-fever.com that our beloved Shea Stadium has come down.

It came down around 11:25 am on February 18, 2009.

They've been posting pictures and video almost daily for at least a month of demolition. As a matter of principle, I look there but won't post any here (except for the day we all went to Shea a few Saturdays ago). But you can look.

Even wikipedia has been updated with the news of Shea's final pieces.

The last ramp to fall

Word has trickled into the thread on baseball-fever.com that the last ramp of Shea will come down tomorrow (Feb 18, 2009) between 11am and Noon.

That thread has LOTS of photos and videos, which I will not post here.

The last piece standing roughly covers Loge sections 5 and 7 (between Gates C and D) and the ramp behind it. The baseball-fever guys have been on top of this.
