A fan’s plea

I spent a princely sum to take my son to see the spectacle known as the Home Run Derby. At the spectacle known as Marlins Park.

As usual, the experience was ruined by the management of this woeful enterprise. Put aside the fact that this stadium was built in the dumbest place on earth, where access and egress are impossible and there is nothing in the way of pre- and post-game entertainment within walking distance.

I and thousands of other patrons waited from 10:30 p.m. to midnight to get out of the parking garage after the event. Talk about road rage provocation. Twitter blew up with others who’ve been stuck for more than an hour after games earlier this season.

This is just another example of the Loria experience. It really grates that this clown is going to slink out of town with suitcases full of dough as a result of cheating South Florida fans for 15 years. Jeb, Derek, Jorge — somebody put us out of our misery. Please.
