Here’s a memorial somewhere in South Carolina. Where is it? Bonus points: Tell us a little about it. If you have a good mystery stumper to share with fellow readers, send to: feedback@statehousereport.com.
Readers didn’t flock to guess the identity of last week’s Mystery Photo, “Another stadium.” It was a tough photo to pinpoint. But stalwart sleuth Allan Peel nabbed it and told us a little bit about Erskine College’s Grier Field in Due West.
“Grier Field is named in honor of the many influential Grier family members who have a deep-rooted history associated with Erskine College, including family members who served as college presidents and faculty members, teaching philosophy, ethics and science. … Grier Field is home to the “Flying Fleet” baseball team, or “the Fleet” for short. … Incidentally, one can clearly see, in the top-right of the mystery photo, that there are eight tennis courts. The layout of these courts, relative to the baseball diamond, was instrumental in helping me confirm that this is Grier Field. Without them, it would have been rather difficult to figure out the location of this mystery photo … at least for someone not from South Carolina.”
Only two others – both longtime mystery aficionados, correctly identified the field: Jay Altman of Columbia and George Graf of Palmyra, Va.
