This is EXACTLY what I thought as I stood in Le Colosseo - the Vet (spent my share of time in the 700 level), Three Rivers, Riverfront, and old Busch were all just modern copies of the 2 millennia old stadium I was in.
The need to eventually install a chit system using clay tokens to limit wine consumption sounds like a policy that should have been in place in the 700 level.
I wonder if the toilet areas were any better than the old metal troughs in the Vet's men's rooms? Being a child of the 80's and of a single mother, I was scarred by the experience the first time I had to use the men's room at a Phillies game.
