A few years ago - there was internet meme about a random train going through a football field in Czechia or Slovakia during the game.
Nobody remembered this movie to compare it with.
We are all convinced that such thing cannot happen in rich and organized first world country - but apparently it happened in 1930s there.

A lot of posts on here are from people who did not pay attention to the terms and conditions!
"Look at it this way; in a hundred years who's gonna care?"

I doubt it.
Too many risks.
Tripping over the tracks.
Getting hit by a passing train.
And then there would have to be certain rule changes for when a ground ball hits the tracks.
Damn, I'm good.

But there were so many thing and services that he really overpayed. Overall he got far less value for money that he would normally.

Not good value for money. That was a condition of the will.

That's not true. The name Trolley-Dodgers was closer to a reference to the fans dodging the trolleys on the way to the game, as there were tracks on either side of the stadium, but not within the stadium. The term was used in that period by New Yorkers referring to people from Brooklyn in general and was applied to the baseball team after they moved into Eastern Park (which was between two trolley tracks) in 1891.

I understand that in the very early days of baseball, the Brooklyn Dodgers got their name because the outfielders had to "dodge" the trolley cars whose tracks crossed the outfield. so it is possible that the train tracks did run through the outfield.

"Also, why didnt Brewster simply hire 30 security guards (as he did) and pay them $1million dollars each."
The terms of the will stated that he get value for his money. It would be hard to claim that any security guard is worth $1 million per month.
If Monty wants to travel the streets with briefcases of money ($500K at a time), he might consider an army of security mans round the clock at $10,000 a week value for moneys, hana

I've always wondered myself if that was a real field with real railroad tracks running through it. If you look in the background there are mountains and the field looks like the one used at the beginning of Stealing Home which I believe was filmed in CA.

I dont think the ground exists. It must have been made especially for the film as I have found no reference to a baseball ground in any league featuring a railroad. If it had existed it would have been mentioned on the Internet that X ground was featured in the film Brewsters Millions. From the rundown ground in the first scene to the updated ground in the Bulls v Yankee's game, there is a gas works as well as other industrial property and substantial car parking. Possibly an industrial lot in NJ.
To me, it looks like the production company leased a flat grassed plot of land with railroad passing through it. Built the small stadium making it look rundown. Providing old advertising hoardings of past businesses such as Hasbrouck Dairy, which I looked into. There are also other old companies from different locations in New Jersey. The name Pulaski Field exists but is in Virginia. Of course Hackensack Bulls is a fictional name.
Anyone got any ideas or evidence to support this was built by the studio or is actually a baseball ground?

Because this would have been gifts, which should not make up more than 5% of his loss of money, as his uncle made clear.

why didn't he buy health care for everyone in New York City? Why didn't he pay college tuition for a few thousand people?
it's best not to overthink this story. it's purely entertainment.

I dont know if it exists but it looks cool! and i imagine he could'nt pay the guards a million bucks each cos he was told he can hire anyone he wants but that he has to get value for their services,and if he paid out all of the 30 million to the guards he would'nt be getting that value for their services as there would then be no money for them to protect.
"When your down here with me you'll float too!!"

1 i dunno
2 cause then there would be no movie [duh?]
