After their new stadium was built for the 1996 season, some called Beehive a dump, while others wondered why they built a new park that wasn't as nice as the one they already had.
Actually Beehive still sits next to the new park and is used for various high school games.
Having seen my only game there in 1990, I don't remember much more about the experience, but it's pretty clear from the pictures, that without a new stadium New Britain would not have kept their franchise.
