Lookouts are a part of Chattanooga’s history; build the stadium and keep them here

I couldn't imagine losing the Lookouts in Chattanooga.

Not only is the team a significant part of my recreational activities for myself, my family and my career, they are a significant part of baseball history in America.

Some of the greatest players in baseball history have played in Chattanooga (even Babe Ruth). Chattanooga has hosted the Lookouts since 1885 (with the exception of 1966-1975), and the team has been part of Chattanooga's identity forever. If you erase the Lookouts from our history, you might as well erase the Civil War too.
