Comerica Park (obviously)...been there 3 times so far, more to come for sure

Tiger Stadium (obviously)...went there 3 times, RIP

New Comiskey Park (U.S. Cellular)...saw a doubleheader against the Tigers

Turner Field...went down to Augusta/Atlanta on Spring Break with my high school baseball team, that was the game they honored Aaron for the 25th anniversary of 715 (talk about luck!)

Miller Park...didn't see a game, went to lunch at TGIFriday's in left field with my dad last summer, want to see a game there soon


I definitely want to go to Wrigley and Fenway before they tear them down. Yankees Stadium would be cool to go to also. I haven't been further west than Chicago and Milwaukee...there's still a lot of the country I haven't seen.

Safeco Field - went there last summer

I've been to Skydome, but only went for a tour and didn't see a game.

Miller Park
County Stadium
Metrodome (shithole)
Wrigley Field

Would love to head out East one day and hit NY/Bal/Bos/Phi

Astrome
Coors Field
Pac Bell errrr... Not sure what it's called these days in SF

Ones I'd like to see

Wrigley
Fenway Park
Yankee Stadium
Camden Yards
Minute Maid
Petco Park

I was in Jack Murphy Stadium for game 4 of the 1998 WS as my beloved Yanks swept the Pads.


Also been to Dodger stadium a bunch of times, the Big A, Oakland Mauseleum, Candlestick, the old stadium in Toronto, and that old shithole in Cleveland.

went to Wrigley in April one year. Stupid move. My beer got progressively colder as it sat in my hand. Fans got a good chant of "bullpen coach sucks" going. You gotta entertain yourself somehow. Cubs baseball sure ain't entertaining. Kosher dogs there are TIGHT.

As a kid, almost caught a ball at old Comiskey. It was during bp and Tom Brunansky hit it. Ball hit my hands and bounced ten feet in the air. Roy Smalley Jr. saw what happened and came over to give me a ball.

Saw a couple Royals game at the now Kauffman. Upper deck stairs so steep that that level has chirpas for ushers. Boiled hot dogs suck. Boulevard doesn't. Went to opening day in '97 where a bunch of dumb teens wrote one letter of "ROYALS" on their bare chests. They stood up looking for the crowd's approval only for their message to read "SLAYOR." Good goin' guys.

Dodger stadium as a kid... fans were fashionably late. Weird.

Of course, Busch ten times a year. Busch is the gem of the cookie cutter stadiums. Soon it'll be gone and in its place will be yet another taxpayer subsidized HOK designed retro dump; a cookie cutter of a different sort. If they serve hummus and falaffel at this new stadium, I'm burning the fucker down.

Many a game in Busch Stadium in the 80's when we lived there, always in the cheap seats!

A few games in Jack Murphy when we lived there, not as many as in STL but some good games.

One game in Dodger Stadium with a bunch of Elba folks on a party bus, fun Dodgers v Giants game sitting in left field taunting Barry Bonds.

Driller stadium in Tulsa is what we have for now, a AA park and always a fun night of minor league ball.

Parks I would like to visit this year: Wrigley Field. For history if no other reason, and also have an old friend in Chicago that I have been promising to visit forever. I would also like to go back to STL this year since it has been a long time since I've seen a game there.

That Minor League Park in Oklahoma City

Places I would like to see,

Every other park in the league, but Fenway and Wrigley top that list.

just drove by the new Cardinal stadium. they have the red brick facade going up and half of the second level terrace in place. I can't wait until the Cards get a new stadium so that we too can be as far away from the action as all the fans in the other new stadiums.

WAR NEW COMISKEY NOSEBLEEDS

Those outfield terrace seats in Busch II aren't exactly close to the action.

I've been to Busch II, Whateveritiscallednow in Arlington, and the new park in Philly.

Louisville Slugger Field

Tiger Stadium...irregularities in every corner
Old Comiskey....toilet that screamed for the wrecking ball
New Comiskey....underrated....Sox fan screams for wrecking ball
Wrigley Field....has no peer
Milwaukee County Stadium....brawt sauce is overrated
Miller Park...cool roof, AA team
Metropolitan Stadium...would've rather seen Vikes
Busch Stadium....too many Cardinal fans
Arlington Stadium....years and years of mediocrity
The Ballpark....as Rhynes calls it, The Temple
The former Enron Field.looks like tent on..outside...greatness inside
Bricktown Ballpark...OKC, watch for tornado
Whatever stadium the Portland Beavers play in....Beaver Fever...snatch some!

Watched the old OKC 89er's win their Tripple AAA crown here one year. I was an adolescent at the time and I and my friend (both of our sets of parents were divorced) at the time were being sort of mentored by a member of the 89er's that year. One of the best summers of my life!!! I spent much of the summer at the ballpark. Got to field balls for the team during practice, eat their buffet after the games (mmmmmm), ect. The team even allowed us to travel on a couple of the series out of town as well, with them.
