Houston Astros Astrodome 7/3/97
Astrodome      Houston, TX
713-259-8000  
National League

The Astros now play at Minute Maid Park..  When I saw them, they played in the first and original dome.  The starter of them all.

I never had so much fun at a baseball game as the one I attended here.  I was with good friends.  We bought the big foam fingers and pom poms and chanted and cheered the entire game.  The lady sitting next to me moved.  I kept hitting her with my pom poms.  They displayed us having fun on the Jumbotron between one of the innings.

They serve french fries in megaphones.  Interesting.

I got to see Craig Biggio play.  He's one of my favorites.

Traffic was poor.  If you wait a half hour after the game ends, you get out with less pain.

This was taken from the first base side.  Inside the dome was huge.
Right/center field.  This photo gives a better idea of what the ceiling looks like.  You can also see the American flag, the Astros banner, and the Texas state flag above the third level of seats.
