    Man, the Rays are going to have to tarp the entire outfield if they keep losing the little fans they had.

    Fenway, the original Yankee Stadium (before remodeling), Shea, Municipal Stadium in Cleveland, Exhibition Stadium in Toronto, Comiskey Park (I and II), Wrigley, Royals Stadium, Busch Stadium (the one the Sox won the 2004 World Series in), the Astrodome, County Stadium in Milwaukee (saw Rice's 300th homer there).
    The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough

    If Porcello keeps winning, he should continue wearing that nasty hat.

    I still want to go to the Trop for a game. It looks fugly (except for aerial views ) but I've never seen the Sox anywhere but Fenway and I've never seen a game in a dome.
    The year I retired I went to Fenway, The Trop, Camden Yards, and Yankee Stadium. Kind of a retirement gift to myself. I didn't get to Toronto because of scheduling but it's on my list.
    I had no problem with parking or traffic at the Trop but the place really is a dump - for a MLB park. The carpet looks worn and anything that makes it unique makes it unique in a negative way.
    The good news was that I walked up to the gate and bought two lower boxes ~12 rows off the field for (IIRC) $53/each!)
    It's a mere moment in a man's life between the All-Star game and the Old Timer's game.
