    Wow. I have a friend who did a Mets fantasy camp this year. Plan to checkout the Phillies stadium in May!!

    Good luck getting tickets Top, they're sold out all year. You'll likely have to get some from scalpers.

    Anyone been to the Phillies stadium?
    All these "baseball only" parks are so nice, comapred to the Rogers Center (formerly the Skydome) here in Toronto that is just one huge ugly mass of concrete with absolutely NO character or ambience.

    I think Rogers Centre looks pretty cool. It has a hotel in the stadium. But when you got to a stadiums with a roof, it can feel like watching baseball in an airplane hangar.

    Anyone been to the Phillies stadium?

    I was at 2 games at Citizens Bank Park last spring. I hit a Flyers playoff game on the Saturday afternoon, sandwiched in between 2 Phillies games on Friday and Sunday. Best weekend ever !!! Gorgeous ball park , probably not as much history as Fenway or Wrigley though, but I'm a huge Phillies fan so I'm a bit biased. All these "baseball only" parks are so nice, comapred to the Rogers Center (formerly the Skydome) here in Toronto that is just one huge ugly mass of concrete with absolutely NO character or ambience. I've been to Comerica Park in Detroit for a few games too, it's pretty nice...and actually attended a Tigers fantasy camp there a couple of summers ago. Couldn't believe how smooth the field was !

    Agree..the Rogers Center is pretty drab and soul-less..which is odd as Toronto is a teriffic and very eclectic city. But you know hockey is the be-all and end -all in Canada. Those guys treat baseball as a bigger joke than americans treat hockey as a joke sport.

    Best view in baseball is Salt Lake City's Spring Mobile Ballpark, home of the Salt Lake Bees, AAA affiliate of the Angels. A stunning view of the majestic Wasatch mountains.

    Camden Yards is the best, but the 2 staduims in Texas are cool and Fenway is very nice.

    Fenway is the most amazing experience. I can't even put into words the whole experience from the old seats to the green monstah! My husband is from Cape Cod, so we got to go to a few games when we lived there. He won tickets at work for a Red Sox/Yankees game. That was off the charts! There is no other rivalry in baseball better than that. We live in Houston now, my hometown, and minute maid is good, but doesn't compare to fenway. :smile:

    Wrigley Field #1. Would be an awesome place to see a World Series Champion play, and not just when we play the Cardinals. Miller park is an awesome ballfield too.

    I live 1 hour away from Camden Yards but the Orioles continue to field a AAA team. Hard to watch them play the past few years!!

    You never know! If something ever happened to U.S. Cellular Field, the Sox would need a place to play the series. :laugh:

    Safeco Field in Seattle! My husband proposed there, so I'm a little biased. :)

    PNC Park is an awesome stadium. Just need a professional baseball team to play in it.
    I didnt know Pittsbugh's team was still considered a professional team.

    That was my point.

    BTW if you want to see some great pictures of ball parks check out Michael Cuddyer's flicker page
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/fivebball/

    He takes pictures of every ball park he visits so has all the AL parks and this year since he is playing for the Rockies will get all the NL parks.

    Being from Cincinnati, I have to say Great American Ballpark is an awesome stadium ;)
    I have been to Wrigley and U.S. Cellular as well and each stadium presents their own unique qualities to love. I am hoping to head north this summer to catch an Indians game.
    Go Reds!

    No one mentioned Busch Stadium! Maybe some jealousy of the World Series Champs??? I would understand!

    If you had to choose between the Giants stadium and the Oakland A's which one would you chose?

    Camden Yards is easily the best stadium to watch baseball in.

    I was just there yesterday and they added a roof top bar deck.. AMAZING.. best view ever!

    I've been to Fenway, Yankee Stadium (old and new), the Jake (back when it was the Jake), PNC, Veteran's Stadium (old), Camden Yards, the Ballpark at Arlington (or so my tickets said, they had changed the name to Ameriquest Field by the time I went), MinuteMaid Park, and the Oakland Colliseum.

    Fenway is my home park (born and raised in Boston)
    Yankee Stadium is my house of worship (die-hard Yankees fan)
    PNC is my favorite of the other parks I have visted.
    Camden Yards is a close second.

    Hated the Jake
    The Colliseum is a dump
    Indoor baseball at Minutemaid is weird (but interesting)
    Ameriquest was nice, but not particularly interesting
    Veterans was fun, but nothing special

    I love Safeco field its only 10 years old so its a fairly new stadium, plus its the only one I can really drive to unless I want to fly somewhere.

    Big Braves fan, not a great start to the season, but am still a fan!

    I loved the old Yankee stadium, had such a great feel to it. But currently, I would say Rangers Ballpark in Arlington or Petco Field in San Diego are my two favorites that I have been to.
