It’s later than expected. Colorado is experiencing major snowfall for the first time since spring. The Major League Baseball regular season has been over for more than a month whilst a dreaded bully was crowned king.
It’s been quiet at 20th and Blake. Coors Field sits cavernous and empty as the winter winds begin to blow. The ghosts of fans sitting in the row of purple seats have a blanket of snow draped across their laps as they await the spring under cold, gray skies.
Several blocks away at the intersection of Speer and Chopper is Ball Arena, home of the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche.
