Field of Dreams: Ballpark upgrades
http://www.cnn.com/2011/TECH/innovation/03/31/ballparks.unveil.tech.updates.wired/index.html
The article gives quick descriptions of ballpark upgrades but what I would like to focus on is the ten year $285,000,000,000 renovation of 99 year old Fenway Park.
Notice how many new advertisements there are and how much larger they are from 2001 to 2011.
Do you feel this is going to continue going into the future?

Response:
I feel that this is going to continue in the future. I do not like it at all but I do believe that there are going to be more and more advertisements all over the ballpark in the future. In the recession we are currently in, organizations are going to get as much money as they can possibly get their hands on. I wouldn't doubt it in the near future that they will even start using the players' jerseys to advertise on as well as all aspects of the field. The Red Sox organization needs to cover the amount of money used for the renovations as well as the massive contracts that they are giving all of the players.
