Welcome to Death Valley!!!

Encircling itself, high and in the air
like a fortress abandoned during some
particularly bloody age, towers the most
ferocious address in Louisiana.

Here you will find all kinds of great stuff concerning one of my favorite places in the whole world, Tiger Stadium (also known as Death Valley). Also included are links to other Death Valley's around the world so take a look and mail me if you see a problem or have something interesting to add.
