New Advertising at Wrigley

<!--quoteo(post=83142:date=Mar 17 2010, 06:25 PM:name=ruby23)-->QUOTE (ruby23 @ Mar 17 2010, 06:25 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->Butch, our differing opinions on the actual timeframe it would take for something like this to be feasible really makes no difference, your idea is just a bad one. It's pretty simple, in practicality, functionality, and implementation; a videoscreen is an infinitely better idea. A stadium full of dipshits sitting on their phones is pretty much the last thing that ever needs to happen. There's already too many people sitting on their phones at Wrigley, and in the world in general. Do we really need a whole stadium of people with their heads buried in their lap watching a 3 inch screen? I just don't see one redeemable quality about the idea.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Fine -- we disagree.

I prefer the phone idea because <b>it leaves the choice to the individual.</b> That's the redeemable quality. You can be a douche and look at your phone during the game if you choose to, or you can watch the game on the field.

With a Jumbotron, you don't have a choice. It's just blasting away all game long. You can argue that you can choose to look away, but it isn't all that easy to look away from a gigantic, glowing rectangle right in your field of vision. I find the Jumbotron incredibly distracting.

And...by the way -- it isn't "my idea." It's something that was presented by the Ricketts family not long after buying the team.

If it were up to me, it would just be the field -- no distractions. No Jumbotron. And there would be a block on mobile devices altogether. I just find the mobile device option the lesser of two evils.
