Just got back from a few days of business in Cleveland. I caught the Indians game on Monday night at Jacob’s Field - for $5! It was my second time visiting the stadium, and it was just as nice as I remembered. It fit in nicely with the downtown, had a good feel to it, and was surrounded by some fun bars with the type of food you’d expect near a park.

Made me dislike the big ball of concrete that is the SkyDome even more.

Question though: why does the downtown core DIE after 6pm. I walked back to my hotel and seriously didn’t come across a single person.
