ABOUT JOE’S GUIDES
As highlighted
in USA Today Sport Weekly and
the Sporting News; several daily newspapers; and on hundreds of
radio stations, www.modernerabaseball.com is home of Major League Baseball contributing writer Joe Connor’s annually-updated and highly-acclaimed
electronic ballpark travel guides – A Fan’s Guide To The Ultimate Spring Training Experience; A Fan’s
Guide To The Ultimate Ballpark Tour: Fully Loaded! about Major League, Minor League or Independent League parks. In November 2005, A Fan's Guide To The World Baseball Classic was added,
followed by A Fan's Guide To The Ultimate College Ballpark Experience in February 2007 and A Fan's Guide
To The Ultimate College Summer League Ballpark Experience in late May 2007. All guides are available for purchase
at the Buy Joe's Guides page and all guides are annually updated.
Like many products
that come to market, Joe's guides resulted from a frustration. Every time Joe would plan one of his ballpark trips he could
never find all the planning information he wanted to in one place. Some had good ballpark planning information, but lacked
sufficient travel planning details, or vice versa. Solution? Joe decided to combine his two passions – baseball and
travel – into comprehensive and easy-to-use electronic guides!
What makes Joe’s electronic guides the best product to
plan a ballpark trip? For starters, it’s the ability to instantly access only the information you need to plan any ballpark
trip at anytime – right at your fingertips – from an actual ballpark’s details to any travel issues. And
because these are electronic guides, you are always armed with the latest information – unlike guides at the local bookstore
that are often outdated!
So say you’re planning a trip to see a couple of ballparks
in the Midwest. Even if you’ve been to the Midwest before and have a good lay of the
land, as well as information on the ballparks you want to see, the task of planning a trip that maximizes the limited time
you may have is still quite daunting. Where do you start mapping your schedule, booking the best airline reservations, rental
car reservations, hotel reservations, buying great seats to the ballgame and much more?
Well, use the guides’ easy-to-use ‘Bookmarks’
to quickly hop to a particular part of the country or team (instead of having to scroll past endless pages). View your options
on how to secure airline, rental car and hotel reservations to that area or city right for you – then book them, using
the Web links inside the guide that take you directly to the deal right for you. Discover whether you need to buy tickets
in advance at a particular ballpark using the guides' customizable links to every team – or whether you can save money
on the surcharges and buy day of game at the box office. Receive tips on saving money on parking, local attractions and much,
much more.
From booking airline, rental car and hotel reservations to
researching game tickets, local attractions and more nearby baseball and sports happenings, Joe’s guides focus on the
planning necessities – right at your fingertips! Even better: if you wish, you can easily print out only the pages you
desire for your specific trip. All you need is a computer, Internet access and Adobe PDF (Portable Digital Format), which
you can download free (www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html).
HOW JOE’S GUIDES WORK: You receive the guide via e-mail, open the attachment and save it to your desktop. Once you’ve
opened the guide, click "Show Bookmarks" to easily click between ballparks using your mouse (instead of having to scroll past
endless pages), and to utilize the resourceful planning information and customizable Web links inside each team (and city)
profile.
