I dunno, Just photobucketed it, loading for me?

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 01:36 PM

Field where the Wright Brothers first flew?

SI

Tigercat · 03-22-2010, 01:36 PM

Yea its small, kinda did that on purpose because further zoom would make it 2x as easy and a bigger picture would just show more farmland.

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 01:37 PM

Custer's Last Stand?

Tigercat · 03-22-2010, 01:37 PM

No so far. Hint: Y'all (everyone is) are pretty far away distance wise.

MJ4H · 03-22-2010, 01:40 PM

Is it that bar in the middle of Iowa from Star Trek.

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 01:42 PM

Gettysburgh?

Tigercat · 03-22-2010, 01:45 PM

Zoomed to important area. (And yea, sorry again it's kinda small.)

Looking for one...

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 01:53 PM

i just feel so dirty when i don't use them

Shudder.

Mustang · 03-22-2010, 01:58 PM

Someone else can post one, I'm having issues getting them saved. (Which site is everyone using?)

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 02:00 PM

I save it to my hard drive then upload to my account at Photobucket.

Easy one.

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:03 PM

I've got one sitting around if we want to use it

SI

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:04 PM

Hm... this easy one is not so easy to me

Unless the answer is: "Parking lot!"

SI

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 02:04 PM

Sorry. I will not accept that answer.

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:08 PM

It's mostly empty. Euro Disney parking lot? Outside the Staples Center when the Clippers are playing? In front of a WalMart during a health food sale?

SI

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:09 PM

(seriously) For some reason I want to say outside Indy Motor Speedway

SI

Shkspr · 03-22-2010, 02:09 PM

Gotta be a baseball stadium parking lot. Turner Field?

spleen1015 · 03-22-2010, 02:09 PM

A parking lot at a stadium of some kind I am thinking.

Tigercat · 03-22-2010, 02:11 PM

I was even thinking the parking lot of an existing stadium that was perhaps once an older stadium. Notice the odd symmetry.. Not sure what that would narrow it down to though.

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-22-2010, 02:11 PM

Shkspr s rght.

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:11 PM

Where else did they build over their old stadium recently? Yankee Stadium parking lot?

SI

spleen1015 · 03-22-2010, 02:11 PM

Yeah, Comiskey Park or Tiger Stadium

lordscarlet · 03-22-2010, 02:12 PM

That inner parking lot is very dark compared to any speedways/ball field lots I have looked at thus far.

Yep. You're up next, but bonus points if anyone can tell me the significance of the part of the parking lot I posted.

Looks like Spleen basically said it.

Shkspr · 03-22-2010, 02:18 PM

I'm guessing the fence where Hank Aaron hit #715 is still standing?

Shkspr · 03-22-2010, 02:21 PM

This one's easy. I'll save the hard one for if I win again.

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 02:21 PM

One other factoid about my pic. The rectangle at the bottom is the outfield wall where Hank Aaron hit the homerun that beat Babe Ruth's career record.

That (and the outline of former Fulton County Stadium) are what made the image distinctive (and fairly easy to anyone within GA, I'd suspect).

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 02:22 PM

Notre Dame?

KWhit · 03-22-2010, 02:22 PM

Or the Vatican?

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:23 PM

Drawing a blank- looks like a megachurch to me

SI

sterlingice · 03-22-2010, 02:24 PM

It's not the Vatican. It's the wrong shape (most of the Vatican is surrounded by cement)

SI
