Dodger Stadium is one of the oldest stadia in baseball. Opening in 1962, I believe, only Wrigley Field and Fenway Park are older (I think). Oakland’s stadium also had a similar problem a couple years ago; it opened in the late 60s.

Similar plumbing standards and accretion of “stuff” over time leading to similar outcomes?

From the book of useless BBS tricks, this works too:

Dodgy. 


(“ ” is the HTML code for a space, which is invisible, but BBS still counts all 6 of those characters. And yes, that means if you did it twice you could make a seemingly empty post, as I will demonstrate by replying to this with one.)

The 1990 England-Ireland World cup game wasn’t stopped when Gary Lineker had an accidental foul smelling sewage leak on the pitch. This one does sound like it was a bigger problem though.

(Youtube video behind link for obvious reasons, although there isn’t really anything to see)

Shit happens.
