SandBox Comments: Grand Junction Daily Sentinel "Casper Ghosts float into region as new Grand Junction Rockies"

Yowza!!

Congratulations to Grand Junction and all the folks in Mesa County!!

What a coup!!

Now, go after every single idea the folks in the Grand Valley and western I-70 towns of Battlement Mesa, Rifle and Silt have to help you (and them) bring in some regional tourism bucks.

"Goodbye, Casper Ghosts. Hello, Grand Junction Rockies.

"The only thing standing in the way of a minor league baseball team settling in Grand Junction is Monday’s City Council vote.

The owners of the Casper Ghosts, the Monfort Investment Group, met with city officials in Casper, Wyo., on Friday. After that meeting, they announced that, pending Monday’s vote, the team will move to Grand Junction for the 2012 season...."

Big news. This'll be fun. Wonder what the projections on revenues are.

Yep, it is. It'll be a good family pull. Not that far to go and it's a big ticket item.
