Will be going to a game at Fenway Park this year. Living in CT gives me a lot of chances to go and with it being the 100th anniversary, its a must. Will also go to a few games at Citi Field (my favorite of the 2 in NY) and probably a game at Corporate World (Yankee Stadium). As much as I like the stadium, its too expensive and too flash.
I am heading to FL in June and will be going to a Red Sox @ Marlins game for the new Stadium. I am down to 9 stadiums remaining. But have…

Before Christmas, I joined Ballpark chasers to get advice on ticket sizes for the MLB tickets. My boyfriend has been to 13 and plans to travel to all 30. As a gift, I tried to find a display case specifically for this purpose and sadly found nothing. As a graphic designer, I put my skills to use to create a poster for him to adhere his tickets to as he collects. I was asked to share the final poster when completed so here is a low-res jpeg.
Since my boyfriend is a Red Sox…

Craig's status update inspired me to look into PBS' documentary about Fenway Park. Although I am a die hard Yankees fan until I die, it still looks like a great documentary. Thought I would share the preview...…

I am going to be to games in Washington, Baltimore, Philly, and Pittsburgh. As part of my quest to hit every stadium, one of the things I am doing is trying to eat the ballpark favorite/signature foods at each one. Anybody who has any suggestions for what I must eat while I'm there would be great. I will take any suggestions for the other parks as well for when I get ready to go to the other stadiums.

ContinueWhat are some good iPhone apps? I’m looking for good travel and restaurant apps. I currently have “groupon”, “Orbitz Hotels”, “Hotel Tonight” “Hotels.com”, “Stubhub”, “Fastfood”. If you have an iPhone I also recommend the “Viggle” app. It’s this app where you tap the screen and it listens to whatever tv show you’re watching and gives you point for “checking in”. You can redeem these point for giftcards for websites such as Amazon, iTunes, and Travelocity. I’m saving all my points up…

Does anybody out there still collect baseball cards? My grandfather collected baseball cards for me and my cousins. He started from our birth year until he passed away. For me he started in 1985. It was when baseball cards were produced like crazy. To my knowledge there are not too many “rare” cards from the late 1980’s. I collected cards on my own when I was a kid as well. Every once in a while my dad would give me some money and take me to the card shop and I would buy as many packs…

I decided to go out to Chicago on the weekend of March 10th-11th. I wanted to go for the entire weekend but I had a previous engagement for that Friday the 9th. I had never been on a commuter train before so I decided to take the Amtrak from Ann Arbor to Chicago. Round trip the ticket cost me about $70. At first I was I thought it was pretty cool to be on a train. The only trains I had been on before were subway cars in NYC, Washington DC, and…

Days after I wrote the update to my 30 ballpark, 30 day plan, things began to finally come together. I had to make a final set of schedule alterations, but the blind baseball traveler is now 55 days from the ultimate baseball dream.
I’ve managed to also make arrangements with a few teams so far to see the field, particularly in the outfield where the ballparks have their personality or lack thereof.
Seats for all but four teams have been purchased, with the Cubs, Nationals, and…

So I've got two baseball trips in the works for 2012.
Trip 1:
Dodgers, Padres, Arizona. Having lived in San Diego for 6 years, Arizona will be the only new stadium for me. Nevertheless we will be traveling via RV, which is the coolest mode of transportation there is. This will be a short but sweet 4 day trip, seeing the stadiums on consecutive days.
Trip 2:
I'm really excited about this one. In August I will be visiting Milwaukee, White Sox,…

I recently got an email from columnist Matthew Van Wormer who writes for didtribewinlastnight.com. He asked me if he could ask me a few questions and feature me as the Fan of the Week on his site. I happily obliged and a few days later answered his questions that he sent me. I will be featured on didthetribewinlastnight.com a week from today, Friday, March 9th. A few days later I received an email from the co-founder of stadiumjourney.com Paul Sweeny asking me if he could ask…
