    How Many Major League (MLB) Ballparks Have You Been To?

    Current parks only. What was your most favorite? Least?

    I've been to Fenway, Camden, Yankees, Citi only. Camden was the best, Fenway is a dump.

    Visiting Rodgers Centre and Safeco this year.

    Minute Maid Park, It's quite nice and has a cool roof system. I grew up going the Astrodome so MM is not as spectacular to me.

    Dodgers, Oakland, Cubs. Cubs in the spring and early summer is the best.

    Yet despite all that, the park I always think about visiting is Camden Yards, especially with the way the O's have been playing.

    Target Field, Marlins Park, Tropicana Field.

    Loved Target Field. More so since I've been to well over 100 games in the old Metro-Dump.

    Obviously then Marlins Park.

    Coors
    Yankee II
    Shea
    Citi
    Dodgers
    AT&T
    Progressive
    Olympic (Expos)
    Rogers Centre (My home)

    Best facilities was Coors, worst was Rogers centre. It is a monument to how short sighted the 1980's were.

    Progressive is also very nice but, unfortunately, is in Cleveland.

    HHH Metrodome (Twins)
    Target Field (Twins)
    Chase Field (Dbacks)
    Kauffman Stadium (Royals)
    Petco Park (Padres)
    U.S. Cellular Field (White Sox)

    Target Field by far the nicest. Petco was cool as well.

    Nationals Park . Nothing beats the UNKS lining the street linking the metro to the park selling tickets and $15 Nats Caps . Meanwhile 7th inning stretch see smoking crack rock . DC rocks.

    I live on the opposite side of the world but have been a life long Jays fan. I can not wait to hit some of these parks! Kills me that I've been watching bases all this time but getting there is really tough (hey I'm a surfer and your waves aren't that great!).

    On the to do list are Jays and Leafs games obviously, then Fenway, SF, and I quite like the look of Pitts park. Guess the Bronx is on most peoples to do list but I couldn't do it just too much dislike, just like I'll never watch a game at Old Trafford, Stamford Bridge or the bitters home ground.

    Current Parks: Fenway, Camden Yards, Dodgers Stadium. Camden Yards is imo the nicest of the three, and Fenway has the best atmosphere. Dodgers Stadium was underwhelming.

    Former Parks: Olympic Stadium (Montreal), Exhibition Stadium (Toronto), Yankees Stadium.

    Olympic Stadium was pretty cool. Apparently it's in disrepair now, but back in the day it was spotlessly clean. In between innings the Expos outfielders would warm up by playing catch with the crowd. Everything being announced in French gave the place an odd charm.

    Exhibition stadium sucked; the seats were a rectangle around a baseball diamond. It was freezing cold in spring with wind coming off the lake.

    I doubt Yankees Stadium would be remembered very fondly if some random minor market team had played there, but it was worlds better than Toronto's former park.

    Instead of going to a Leafs game, save your $1000 and buy a cheap toyota. You will have more fun with the toyota.

    Residents of the City of Toronto don't discuss exhibition stadium anymore. Our current stadium is bad enough.

    Old Yankee Stadium
    Wrigley

    Chase
    The Ballpark @ Arlington
    New Cominsky

    Newer parks have all the amenities and concessions which is great, but I kind of like the grittiness of the old stadiums. Wrigley hands down on the surrounding pre game and post game atmosphere
