Legion’s Field Of Dreams? Not Quite
American Legion wants a little bit more leg room. While city crews continue to construct the new ball field at Ramsey Park in time for first pitch around Memorial Day, the American Legion board said it’s not happy with the ballpark’s seating. Specifically, the bleachers behind home plate are too narrow. Or, as Dennis Spencer, legion liaison put it last week: “Your knees are in the backs of everybody.” Other amenities going into the $315,500 new ball park adjacent the Kroc Center appear to be equal or better, legion board members said, but they thought they were getting wider aisles in their bleachers — like they had at their old park/ Tom Hasslinger , Coeur d’Alene Press.

Question: I definitely think the city should provide bleachers that will satisfy the American Legion. Also, I think this is a relatively minor detail that needs to be worked out. What do you think?
