weirdwolf not so fast.......
I hate to tell you this but I'm the one that started the custom large fields back in 1989 in my apartment in Inglewood Ca. I went to a metal shop in Inglewood and had them build it to my scale. Two years later I met Bill Porche and that's when Bill and I created the MONSTER BOARDS, which is now called FIELD OF DREAMS. So it started way before Jerry Mcgee and this can be verified through Bill Porche, Cleon Tate (rasta) and my friend Brian Pointer in Lansing , Mi whom I sent the first monster board to, it was a 1968 New York Jets snow covered hand painted custom monster board. Brian Pointer is a child hood friend of mine. The New York Jets are the team I used to win Reggies first Texas Shootout with, this was their home field. Cleon Tate played on it in our original los angeles league back in 1992.
