Well, baseball’s back in Chattanooga.

This week marked the Chattanooga Lookouts’ home opener and the debut of the team’s new home at Erlanger Park.

Did you venture down Chestnut Street to see the new stadium for yourself? Did you find the best seat in the park, hopefully out of the sun as promised? And were all the years of debate and hype over the stadium and its financing worth it?

Send us your thoughts on the new stadium, ease of parking, amenities and opening week in 25 words or fewer, to be included in a special edition of the Rant on Saturday, April 25. Email us at rant@timesfreepress, submit using this form or send Rants by mail to our office at 400 E. 11th St., Chattanooga TN 37403, c/o Rant.
