Other Baseball Stadiums

[Spudboy]

I'm wondering what other baseball stadiums Talksox members have experienced.

I've been to dozens of games at Fenway, but have attended only one game at another venue.

I Saw the Pirates (with Barry Bond in left) play the Phillies at The Vet in '85 or'86.

 

Where have you all been and what were your impressions of the stadium?

[Cocos Disciples]

Fenway, Old Yankee Stadium, Shea, Camden, Nationals Park, US Cellular, Safeco, Turner, Citizens Bank, Wrigley.

Fenway' date=' Old Yankee Stadium, Shea, Camden, Nationals Park, US Cellular, Safeco, Turner, Citizens Bank, Wrigley.[/quote']

 

Wow! You sure have been around! Do you think the newer parks are more "enjoyable"?

Game play not withstanding, do any of these stadiums have features that make you want to go there again?

[Quinny]

fenway, Camden, petco, AT&T(or whatever san fran giants play in these days).

 

Went to a evening game at AT&T a couple years back, and it was really a beautiful park. Right next to the Pacific ocean

 

Camden was nice as welll.

Petco sucked.

 

Would love to go to New Yankees stadium, Pirates stadium(whatever they call it), jacobs, and Wrigley.

I thought Camden Yards was awesome, it's probably my favorite modern park. I also remember liking Safeco, though that was a while ago.

Friends have told me that Camden is awesome. The entire game experience, the surroundings, the food! I'd love to go there for a Sox series. Maybe I could find my way out to right field and have some barbecue at Boog Powell's!

Major League: Cinergy Field, Old Busch Stadium, New Busch Stadium, Kauffman Stadium, Turner Field, Tropicana Field, Ballpark at Arlington, Minute Maid Park, Fenway Park

 

Minor League: Autozone Park (Memphis Redbirds), Trustmark Park (Mississippi Braves)

[Spudboy]

I'm becoming increasingly jealous! I think I have to start playing the lottery. Maybe then I can afford to drop everything and travel around the country to take in ballgames at all the major league stadiums.

[Cocos Disciples]

I usually go to about one a year.

[Keeper]

Wrigley, U.S. Cellular, Fenway, Old Yankee Stadium, Old Busch Stadium, County Stadium, Miller Park, Comerica, PNC Park, Dolphin Stadium

 

I'm also planning a short road trip this summer to see Kauffman Stadium and New Busch Stadium or Progressive Field and Great American Ball Park. I haven't decided yet.

You are a fortunate man.

[Jasonbay44]

Fenway, Camden yards, old Yankee stadium, Shea stadium, RFK Stadium (Nats old stadium), New Nats stadium.

[Youk Of The Nation]

I've actually been to Camden far more than Fenway even though I'm closer to Boston. I love Camden.

[msubulldogs21]

I've thought about venturing up that way and hitting Progressive and Great American, then maybe going over to PNC and Citizens Bank. I love spontaneous road trips and they always revolve around sports. If I have the time I hope to do something like that later this summer or something.

[Mama Varitek]

Only PNC Park. I haven't even been to Fenway to see my own son!

[RobiForMVP]

Camden Yards

Great American

Chase Field

Olympic Stadium

Rogers Centre

Dolphins Stadium

[Youk Of The Nation]

I've been to Shea, Old Yankee Stadium, PNC Park, Camden Yards, and Rogers Centre. Rogers is a shithole.

[mvp 78]

A's - very blah, but they used to let you bring coolers to the game and bleacher seats were $1 on Wednesday

Giants - very, very overrated

Expos - I actually got to run on the field here, the turf was squishier than expected (I had only been on the turf of the old Foxboro Stadium prior to it)

Dodgers - absolutely gorgeous

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

I've been to 2 Fenway games in my life, excluding F@F games.

[Gom]

Old Yankee Stadium, New Yankee Stadium, Shea Stadium, Citifield, Camden Yards.

 

Camden Yards is my favorite, followed by old Yankee Stadium.

[Teddyballgame10]

Old Yankee Stadium, Shea, Citifield, Fenway, Camden. I'll get to the New Yankee sometime this year.

 

What's Petco like?

[yankees228]

Been to all of the current ones except National Park and Citi Field, along with Old Yankee Stadium, Shea Stadium, Veterans Stadium, RFK, Olympic Stadium, Cinergy, Jack Murphy (I think that's what the old Padre's was called), and Old Busch. I think that's it, but I might be forgetting one.

 

Took awhile...

[Youk Of The Nation]

I'm going to the Twinkiedome next week.

[Oriolekid]

Camden really is beautiful when you actually get to experience it from the upper deck as well. I would Take Upper Left Field Seats over 1st base liners any day because it's baseball atmosphere at it's finest up there.

Sounds cool. I hope I have the resources to experience Camden someday. Thanks.

Well, I can now add the Fukuoka Dome in Japan to my list. That was a blast. Saw the Softbank Hawks (Fukuoka) vs the Hiroshima Toyo Carp.

How cool. The Japanese games I have seen on TV look like big time events. The fans are really into it. The noise, the tradition. All that must have been really interesting. Glad you're having fun.
