One might go to the first Progressive Field MAC Championship game regardless of the teams playing.
I sincerely question the sanity of the person who says they would do it a second time.
These baseball park football games are getting tedious. The Northwestern game at Wrigley was the shark jump.
I highly suspect of football games played at newer baseball parks. Older fields like Wrigley were built to be more multi-purpose fields; I think the Chicago Cardinals played football there in the 40s and 50s and da Bears were there for most of the 60s and 70s. But newer fields were built for baseball, so shoehorning a football field inside the walls is often difficult. AT&T Park, where the Fight Hunger Bowl is played, can't accommodate benches on opposite sides of the field, so both teams are on the same side. Goofy. If they can do it, great. But I'd rather see the MAC championship game played on a field that doesn't have a sodded-over infield.
They did build new Yankee with football in mind, but even so, it just isn't a great setup. Sodded over infields, many of the seats end up sucking, etc. etc.
It makes no sense whatsoever to me when there is an NFL stadium just up the road a few blocks -- you'd have to think it would cost more to screw around converting things than just rent a ready-to-go field.
Plus, again, you're outside, in Cleveland, on a lake, in December.
I see no advantage to it, on any front.
