Why don’t the Omaha Storm Chasers play at TD AMERITRADE?

Because the city built TD and they have a park that opened in 2011 I believed paid for by the owners. Actually now I think of it the County outside of Omaha paid for it.

I know they used to hate those 3-week long road trips they’d have to go on during the CWS.

So TD lies dormant for 48 weeks out of the year? Damn shame if it does

It is too big. TD is basically a MLB park. 2000 fans for a minor league game would look depressing.

Creighton plays their home games there. It also hosts concerts.

I don't know why Bud Crawford never used TD Ameritrade when he held fights in Nebraska. It would have been an electric venue for his fights.

The CWS used to be an 8 day tournament. Now it’s a 13 day event counting the opening ceremonies. The Royals couldn’t go 4-5 weeks without a AAA facility.

Also the minor league stadium is in the burbs where they can draw a more steady crowd.
