Page move?
The actual name of the ballpark is Dr. Pepper Ballpark. Dang period. Should we move this page?--Kevin 02:01, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Whoops my bad. I always thought it was spelt with a period. Oh well. Ignore last statement then.--Kevin 02:03, 25 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Hah, yeah, it's a weird thing. Dr Pepper's never had a period in it.  Ensign beedrill (talk) 02:55, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

GA Nominations
I recently did a fair bit of work on this article, and I thought it has made enough improvement to be considered for good article status. I await any commentary. Thank you. &mdash; Scm83x hook 'em 11:12, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Great work! Awesome references!  Any chance of finding a photo or architectural diagram that could be used under a fair use justification? Johntex\talk 15:48, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism
Saw this on the Featured Article bit, it had some vandalism which you can see in the edit history, I reverted it, but keep an eye out for some more. DRosin (talk) 10:36, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Fixed grammar issues
I saw a couple of grammar issues. I also fixed the redundancy of constantly using "US" before all dollar amounts. I kept the first "US" where it says "US $300 development project." (technically, it should say "$300 million USD) All the others I took out, especially the ticket prices section. Nihilianth (talk) 15:19, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Nihilianth

Outdated Info about Ticket Prices
Since 2006, the article has contained a somewhat strange section entitled "Non-architectural critical reaction" which claims that unnamed "critics" are upset about the venue's supposedly extremely high ticket prices ("$7, $15, and $18"), and then goes on for a little while with some random details about discount ticket plans. This info is now 14 years out of date and even in 2006 those ticket prices were not especially high. It's hard to figure out exactly what the current prices are, since the 2020 baseball season has been indefinitely postponed, but some Texas League tickets are still listed on ticket-resale sites, mostly at prices in excess of $18. ($28 seemed to be a common price for a single game ticket.) This section quite possibly should simply be deleted, but I will mention this problem here first in case someone wants to try to update it.
