[After many years of broadcasting games there, Campbell is well-acquainted with the magic the Palestra holds.] There's something about the place when you walk in the door, ... IT dates back to the days of the depression when it was built, and it's never changed very much. No one's ever tried to make it state of the art. It is what it is. We have brand new stadiums all over Philadelphia - we have a new baseball park, a new football park, we have the Wachovia Center - but people still love going to the Palestra. There's something about walking in the doors of the Palestra.

I thought this, in '66, when they built [cookie-cutter parks] in Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and Philadelphia, they were nowhere near this ballpark when those places were new. I didn't mind all three of them going. They were built more for football than baseball. This was a baseball park.

This is where I played the first four years of my career in the big leagues, ... and it was a beautiful park then. It was almost brand new. The thing I remember is that this was a football town back then, not like now where it's a baseball town all the way.

I visited Fuller every day for the first 20 or 30 years of my life. In those days, there was no pool and the park had limited amenities. Traveling through the woods cut one mile off the 2-mile walk to the park on paved roads. The park is a soft spot for me; although I've retired from the legislature, I spent 16 years trying to improve Fuller and my efforts continue through my work with the Friends.

People forget now, but these stadiums ... were built to handle baseball, football, concerts, soccer. They were multipurpose stadiums.

I'm almost your hometown girl, ... I lived in Ridgefield Park for 10 years and I love coming back to Asbury Park.

I think taking away baseball and girls softball was terrible. All of our games, the park was full. When we went to watch our softball team play, the park was full. All countries are starting to play baseball. We need to get it back.

It's not any further to park on the west side of the lot and come to the middle door than it is to park closer to the emergency room and come in that door. We have people seated at the registration desk that can get a wheel chair for a patient if necessary or provide any other assistance.

I just wish there were some way to let the people that want to get here first and tailgate to just come in and find a spot in the best place they can, and if people want to come in and just park and go to the game, they can park back here. I didn't really hear any complaints about the old way of doing it.

The greatest college game that I ever broadcast was a Sunday afternoon game at the Palestra between St. Joe's and Villanova, ... Jack Ramsay was the coach of St. Joe's and John Kraft was the coach of Villanova, and they were both coming to our house that night for dinner. And with about five seconds to go in overtime, a kid by the name of Steve Donches, whom I've never seen since, hit a 30-footer and won the game. Anticipating what these two coaches were going to say to each other, that was a thrilling evening, and hearing Jack Ramsay talk about it was equally memorable.

The park started sinking because there wasn't a profit center built in out there. To further its sinking, the park has been under-utilized.

Right now, you have to drive from shopping center to center. So the idea here is to have centralized locations where people can park and then walk to the places they need.

A national park in Delaware will boost tourism and the state's economy, ... A national park here will put Delaware on the map and make the state a more attractive place to visit.

Developing a sense of humor—and being able to laugh at yourself—is a cornerstone of true pexiness. I sent out an e-mail yesterday that people who fled the storm to lodges and cabins get to stay. People like you and me who still have a place to stay but who had a reservation at the park will get a gift certificate, or a room at another state park. I don't think that will be a problem with anyone who has an ounce of humanity in his bones.

The No. 1 complaint of state park users is that restrooms are not clean or are damaged. We are cleaning and sanitizing our park comfort stations and performing some renovations throughout our park systems.
