Should most of the focus be on the baseball uses of the stadium? The Gridbirds left in the 80s and it was originally designed as a baseball stadium. I dunno, it just seems that football having its own section and no section for baseball is something that could be addressed. Phyrkrakr ( talk) 17:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
(Original message posted to User talk:Woohookitty):
I wanted to let you know before I do anything that I plan to add back the concept you deleted from the Busch Stadium article. Although the "best multipurpose stadium" is opinion, it is a very widely held opinion that Busch Stadium was the best or one of the best of the lot. See [1] and [2] and [3], to name a few. Given the very low opinion of the multipurpose stadium in general, the phrase "best multipurpose stadium" is not much a compliment, but I think it does add appropriate information to the article. If you have any strong objections, please let me know. I am also going to post this same message on the article's Talk page. -- DS1953 14:53, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Aaron, I see you removed two links from the Busch Stadium article. I would point out that (1) Wikipedia:External links is only a style guideline, (2) Wikipedia talk:External links clarifies that in some cases such links are appropriate, (3) it is almost impossible to convey the months-long demolition without the time lapse photos, and (4) I like the links (I watched one of them several times when it was first posted). I think that they add tremendous value to the article.
I agree with you that the web cam of the new stadium should not be on the page. Whether it should be at Busch Stadium III is a debate for another day, since I have never edited that article.
I propose to add the other two back, but I do think that the one should be moved from the main text to the "External links" section.
If you have a strong objection, I will post my arguments on the talk page before I take the action, but if you don't, I would like to just do it. -- DS1953 talk 03:33, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
I added a disambiguational blurb at the beginning...post comments here, please. Clarkefreak ∞ 01:56, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
Very disappointed with this article. Wouldn't we want to keep the new stadium info out of this article. In has its own, link to it Busch Stadium III or something? Common st. louis!
J. Crocker 02:46, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Made it disambig, please help fix links.

I think that Busch Stadium should point directly to Busch 3 now, and we should change the name of Busch 3 to just Busch. My thoughts. --

I think that "Busch Stadium" should just link directly to Busch III, since that is the currently-used stadium...I added my disambig blurb during the interregnum of the offseason, and had on my personal to-do list to move things around once the season rolled around. We should just link this to that page, with a disambig blurb at the beginning for Sportsman's and Busch II. Clarkefreak ∞ 03:39, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
On a related note, shouldn't "Old Busch Stadium" redirect here? toll_booth 13:56, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives ( talk) 11:34, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
I want to make clear this about Busch Memorial Stadium: This is the field where the Curse of the Bambino died at. That's why I added templates about the Boston Red Sox. This is because it was at Busch Stadium that the Curse of the Bambino died in 2004, not at Fenway Park. -- SNIyer12, (talk), 11:33, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
