Oh my. "If you build it they will come." I grew up about 15 miles from where they built the "field of dreams". It is on land that was on two different farms. The one farmer plowed his half over and planted corn after the movie wrapped up. The other, seeing the potential in "the ball field", purchased the second half and re-established the whole thing. People are still coming to the field to play. Individuals, teams, and they even have tournaments. Just another example of "thinking outside ...". (Information from folks living in Dyersville, Iowa and passed to members of my family during multiple visits.)
