Story
Quote:
In "Field of Dreams," Kevin Costner's character builds a ballpark out of a corn field because a voice says: "If you build it, he will come."
Well, now he can buy it, and so can anyone else.
Don and Becky Lansing, the owners of the site near Dyersville, Iowa, where the field was built by Universal Studios, said they're selling the property. The asking price is $5.4 million.
The couple said they love the land, which has been in Don Lansing's family for more than a century, but they're ready to retire.
"It's really time for us to head to the locker room. Maybe that sounds corny. I don't care," Becky Lansing said. "We really would just love to become spectators. We want to sit in the bleachers."
The site has been a popular tourist destination. Up for sale is the diamond, a two-bedroom house, six outbuildings that include a concession stand, and a 193-acre parcel.
