Casually having this conversation over the weekend, I was astonished by the number of major league parks I’ve actually been to.

Here’s my list:  
[ul]  
[li]Busch Stadium[/li][li]New Busch Stadium[/li][li]Wrigley[/li][li]Old Comiskey[/li][li]New Comiskey[/li][li]Arlington Stadium[/li][li]Ballpark in Arlington[/li][li]The Stick[/li][li]Pac Bell[/li][li]Oakland Coliseum[/li][li]Chez Ravine[/li][li]Jack Murphy[/li][li]Petco[/li][li]Fenway[/li][li]Kingdome[/li][li]Safeco[/li][li]Astrodome[/li][li][del]TenRun Field[/del] Minute Maid Park[/li][/ul]

That is all. Seems like a lot but I’ve barely scratched the surface. Also strange that 7 are either demolished or not used for baseball anymore (feeling old).

Yours?

I have been to the sight of both Hilltop Park (Where the Yank’s started as the Highlanders) and the Polo Grounds.

I need to get to Citizens Bank Park in Philly next.

You got me by a country mile.

Yankee Stadium  
Shea Stadium  
Vets Stadium (Phillies)  
Great American Ball Park (Reds)  
Busch Stadium (Cardinals)  
Dodger Stadium  
Petco Park (Padres)

But in two weeks I get the Rogers Centre (Blue Jays) and this summer I get Wrigley, Kauffman (Royals) and Coors Field (Rockies).

I’ve been to a great many minor-league parks as well. But the key is to “see America” as much as possible before **HSHGF** realizes that the only America we’re seeing has ballparks in it.

Funny, my husband just asked me this question yesterday. When he heard the answer, he laughed at me. Because my answer was:

1. Wrigley Field
2. Comiskey Park

That’s it. I never even saw the old Comiskey…never went to a Sox game until I was an adult (die-hard Cubs family).

I need to get out more.

Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium  
Turner Field  
Yankee Stadium (Vs. Baltimore, only non Braves game I’ve seen in person)

In some cases I don’t have the most current corporate name:

Skydome/Rogers Centre (Toronto)  
Exhibition Stadium (Toronto)  
Stade Olympique (Montreal)  
Pacific Bell Park (San Fran)  
Angels Stadium (Anaheim)  
Dodger Stadium (LA)  
New Comiskey (Chicago)  
Bank One Ballpark (Phoenix)  
Turner Field (Atlanta)  
Tiger Stadium (Detroit)  
Comerica Park (Detroit)  
Metrodome (Minnesota)  
Oakland Coliseum (duh)  
Miller Park (Milwaukee)  
Shea Stadium (New York)  
Petco Park (San Diego)

The best so far as either San Fran or Petco.

The worst, by fifty light years, was Montreal. It was ghastly. The worst that’s still in the majors is the Metrodome, with Oakland ahead of it only because it’s not a dome.

Oh my God, Connie Mack has been closed 38 years. Damn, I’m old.

I’ll add Busch (Cardinals) to the list sometime this summer.

I’ve never lived in a place where I could easily go to a MLB game and rarely did we go to one during family vacations. I think the only two games I’ve seen were in Qualcomm when the Padres were still playing there and Mile High before Coors Field was built.

[QUOTE=What Exit?]

I have been to the sight of both Hilltop Park (Where the Yank’s started as the Highlanders) and the Polo Grounds.

[/QUOTE]

I haven’t been to that many, but I actually did see a game at the Polo Grounds: an exhibition between the Yankees and the Mets before the Mets moved to Shea.

Besides that:

Yankee Stadium  
Shea  
Fenway  
Memorial Stadium (Baltimore)  
Camden Yards (Baltimore)  
RFK Stadium (Washington), an exhibition game by the Orioles in the late 1980s  
Mile High Stadium, Denver, in about 1978 when it was a minor league park.

I’m hoping to see a game at Dodgers Stadium later this week.

Dodger Stadium  
Wrigley  
Fenway  
Yankee Stadium  
New Comiskey (fuck, I had the opportunity to go to old Comiskey but did not have the fascination with classic stadiums that I have now.)  
Shea  
Oakland Coliseum  
Coors Field.  
Angel Stadium  
Candlestick Park  
Pac Bell. or whatever they call it now.

I tried to go to the old Tiger Stadium before it closed, but i couldn’t get any one to go. I had the chance to go and see the Dodgers at the Coliseum this year, but stupidly did not go.

The family’s had season tics for the Rangers ever since Arlington Stadium was first built, so the lion’s share of games were there. Row 1 between visitor’s dugout and warm-up circle, so a couple of yards from George Brett, Bo Jackson, Derek Jeeter, etc. 🙂
