Would have thought the Skydome would be closer to the bottom, but...SkyDOME.

As someone who froze in Candlestick and melted in the Oakland Coliseum on the same day, I find the 1 degree difference surprising.

Huh. Could have sworn Cleveland was perpetually 66.6.

saying derogatory things about Mr. Met’s mom …. which led to the gesture because of a personal matter with his mom.
