We moved to Los Angeles in 1960 so I was able to see a few games at both Wrigley Field and the Coliseum. When Dodger Stadium opened, my cousin and I would take a bus from Hollywood to Downtown L.A. and then another bus to the stadium. The view of the field when you come through the tunnel was breath-taking. In the 1970's, my ex-father-in-law had 8 season seats on the rail in the first deck (below the press deck), between home and first. They had to be the best seats in the stadium.
As a funny aside, I heard that the season tickets were one of the few items the family fought over when his estate was being settled. lol
