Don,

Not just for 2010 World Series, but for keeps, four year cycles.... Kind of a permanent home..... Be neat to see, but going to be tough for us to pull it off.....

I would love for this to happen for Shelby! I went to the World Series this past year following the Rowan County boys and the Fargo folks did an outstanding job. I've heard nothing but good things about the way Shelby puts on a world series. Plus it would be closer for me to attend!

If Shelby does get the World Series again...I hope they make more room for the media...
I don't want to get run off again

Don the only reason they ran you off is because Kannapolis beat us back in 1989 in the playoffs at Shelby in football!! We don't forget! LOL

I hope it works out for Shelby, would be a nice thing, and they have pumped a lot of money over into that stadium the last few years, with millions more it appears to be invested in it......

I maybe a homer(no pun intended) but Shelby is the place for this tourney...the fans, atmosphere, and hospitality that is offered there is unbelieveable!
Do I get to vote
I'm going to post the article so it can be read by the many American Legion Fans we will have here during the season and now....lol

I wonder what will happen when the largest baseball complex in the US is built in Mooresville, is there a chance this will be moved there.
