I personally dont like this..it seems to me to be a PR marketing ploy.
Even if the intent is good, I think it could easily offend some.

I say let Taylor rest in peace. I dont like the idea of parading his locker around like some sort of shrine...not cool.

Yeah, the club level is too public for his locker to be, they should keep it at the park.

Yeah I agree. I'd like his memory to live on, but this seems like a type of marketing thing to me, which I hate. He's in the ring of honor, so his memroy is living on at Fed Ex and through the fans. I think they should leave it at the park.

I'm fine with it.

Sometimes people need to be reminded of the loss of someone with so much promise to senseless violence. If just one person who might otherwise get involved in something they'll regret sees this and it has an impact, it will have been worth it.

I think its great. I know when I finally get to make a home game, I would love to see his locker. Millions of people have been to Graceland. When you truly miss and love something you want to remember it. I beleave it is out of respect to him and the fans. I know I watched about 30min of youtube videos on him after reading the article and it made me feel good and sad at the same time.HTTR

Why would anyone want to be intested in his locker? I agree with the majority that this is a maketing ploy and is in poor taste.

The same reason you would buy his jersey.

Are they charging extra for people to go see it? Am I missing something here?

Club A Tower is the location it will be placed. I'm not familiar on the workings of the staduim and where you can go with a regular ticket.

I think it's time for the team to move on in the locker room, I've got no problem with this at all.

If they had moved the locker right away that would have been tasteless, but it's been 3 years now.

The organization has handled the whole ST tragedy with class and respect. I don't see how that's changed by letting the public view the locker, and letting the team move on.

Hrmmm.. I'm not a big fan, but I'm sure that the new FO isn't as tied to it as we are. I guess it's better to be on display than just sitting in some storage closet or in Danny's office. Moss and Portis were fine though so no reason for me to be upset.

The difference between Ticket A and Club Level I suppose.
