Winding Down on Building Stadiums for Miniature Football

[Reginald Rutledge]

Finally, the end is in sight! I've been building stadiums for more than 20 years for MF'ers and it's about to come to a close.

This week, I've will be showing Penn State's Happy Valley and the New England Pats stadium constructed from the Ravens design. I have 2 other stadiums (Veteran and The Linc) after that and I think, that will be it!

This is the most laborious aspect of what I do. It cripples me in doing other things like even getting orders out on time. It is a labor of passion but I would rather do these for myself.

I will be forever grateful to those who wanted stadiums over the years but Whew! I am glad this may be over for me. Now, I get to do my own classic stadiums on my own time.

So again, thanks to all that ordered over the years as I hope you got the enjoyment out of it that I put into it.

Reggie,

Say it ain't so...

Thanks for all the passion and for providing so many with inspiration... your stadiums have raised the game and hobby to a whole new level. I simply can't imagine ef without them! They will be missed dearly...

If you ever change your mind, I'm sure many of us won't be dissapointed

Best Regards,

I guess the more craft-talented among us will have to build our own custom stadiums, but you were the one who blazed the trail for the rest of us.

Thanks

I really don't know why I have a problem with this line!

Yeah, I have wondered if we shouldn't call ourselves MFB'ers for Miniature FootBallers, but in many cases the MF fits...

to do some work for myself.

I want to own about 10 different stadiums and I've never had the chance. Just sold the Rose Bowl, one of my favorites so I've got to replace that.

I want Pro Player. I want Raymond James. I want Michigan's Big House. I want OSU's Horseshoe. I want the Rose Bowl again! I want the RCA Dome. I want the old Orange Bowl! I want Lambeau Field. I want Florida State's Stadium. And I want the Liberty Bowl in Memphis.

I never really have ever had a chance to do that for myself in all these years because of what I do. Heck, I own just 1 football team.

These are things I've promised myself all my life and never got around to it. I want every NFL team, home and away.

These are things I so desire.

..... The Granddaddy of them all, the Rose Bowl! Reg did a wonderful job capturing one of my favorite college football venues. Here's a little tribute to the Rose Bowl....

Steve,

A couple of years ago, I went to Pasadena to see the Rose Bowl. Every time I visit a city, I have to see the great architectural work of arts.

I wanted to see the Rose Bowl and the stadium was under renovations. I decided to take a stroll on in the stadium when no one was looking! It was one of those highs that you can't explain. The history, the pagentry, the great players and the stadia itself was one of the most memorable experiences about LA.

I looked around the stadium and saw everything I had created in the same spots as the real stadium. It did me good to know I was accurate.

That will be the first one I do over. I discovered some more building techniques when I renovated the stadium that Greg bought that will make building it, that much more easier.

Coming today, Beaver Stadium - Happy Valley!!!

....We gonna pull you back in. I know I need a couple more stadiums for the CBSMF. So get all your stadiums out the way and I'll hit you with my 2 or 3 or 4 stadiums.
