On July 9, 1943 Dell and her mom had been visiting relatives in Augusta, Georgia, and they were catching the bus back to Gadsden, Alabama and then to Albertville, Alabama, which was on Sand Mountain where she lived.
Dell had to assume that the bus would not be making the trip up Sand Mountain to her house and that there would be no Christmas visit.

It is an easy park to find, but traffic must be brutal after the game as everyone is parked in the same lot and there is only one road out.
Dell Diamond is pretty similar to other AA parks that have been recently built, though a little bigger, which explains why they shifted to AAA in 2004.
The interior of Dell Diamond can be completely circled - this is a feature that I wish all new parks would include.

As these two PCs from Dell and Carrera are built around the fastest version of Intel's flagship processor - the Pentium III - we weren't surprised when they turned out to be the fastest Windows 98 systems we've seen.
Dell's Diamond Viper V770 is successor to the Viper V550 which was Best Buy in May's group test, so we expected big things.
Dell has chosen a 19in Trinitron that would be a joy to work at, while the 17in Iiyama screen supplied by Carrera is also a fine Trinitron model, this time with a virtually flat screen.

The berm seats are not bad, but their seating is first-come first-serve, so you'll want to make sure to pick out a spot no later than 20 minutes before the first pitch.
I like the DBAP better than Dell, if for no other reason than you're not staring at a gigantic turd outside of the outfield wall.

So while the Dell Diamond isn’t really a brand-new ballpark, parts of it are new, as Ryan-Sanders Baseball invested in additional seating to bring the ballpark to Class AAA specs.
Like most ballparks built in the last five years, the Dell Diamond features plenty of diversions to entertain fans who can’t sustain interest in baseball for nine innings, including kids’ play areas, a pool and extensive concessions.
The Dell Diamond perfectly embodies the Austin ethos: it’s professional without being too overwhelming, about as laid-back as you’ll find in Class AAA baseball.

Out at the Dell Diamond, where kids can run the bases, celebrate their birthdays, and receive free bats, balls, and hats upon entry to the stadium, the whole family is welcome.
According to the woman's partner, the two options available to the family were to move to the First Aid station to nurse (which precluded watching the game) or leave the park and get a refund.
Because the Dell Diamond was paid for in part with public funds, the team was apparently in direct violation of state law.
