I am psyched since my big 2009 roadtrip got cancelled, I am looking for a late april roadtrip and I think I found it with a quick look at the schedule.



I could potentially knock off 9 stadiums in 14 days. Including new Target Field! And get to see the Mets (the 2010 NL East Champions...LOL) twice!!! woo hoo



Lots of driving but with me and a few folks we could do it!!!



here is what I found....(home team listed first)

Houston vs Pittsburgh 4/24

Texas vs… Continue

So I went to Cleveland to see the Yankees/Indians game and went on priceline.com hoping to get something pleasent enough to not want to run out at 3am kind of hotel.



I bid $40.00 expecting to get a days inn or something like that...imagine my suprise when the Hyatt Cleveland Arcade, one of the highest priced Cleveland hotels on the Progressive Field Chasers Guide popped up. The normal night in that hotel is 229.99!!



So anyone planning on Cleveland, take a chance on… Continue

So me and my pal Rick are leaving tomorrow night to head to Progressive Field in Cleveland on Monday night, we are gonna take the ballpark tour in the morning, the Indians are playing the Yankees, so I will actually have a rooting interest in the home team for once!! LOL



The we will head down to Pittsburgh the next morning to PNC Park, take in the ballpark tour and then that night games Mets/Pirates game....should be good as Johan Santana is pitching from MY Mets!!!



I will… Continue

When I made my plans to go to Nats Park, I had very little in terms of my expectations. The team is lousy at best most of the time, the stadium is in a run down area of town and to be honest, I was going to see two last place teams (Orioles) "battle it out"



Well let me say this...Nats Park was probably my favorite stadium in the past few years. The place was exceedingly clean, well taken care of and the sound and public address announcer was amazing.



The game was a 12… Continue

NYS is my 10th stadium, and today's 9-1 (10 runs scored combined for my 10th stadium....the Gods were sending me signs....LOL)



The stadium was beautiful, less intimate and cozy then Citi Field or Oriole Park or Citizens....but still a great place to watch a game. I sat in the bleachers and found it to be quite enjoyable and a great place to watch the contest



Monument Park should have been at least half more of the size then it is....felt cramped and that the plaques and… Continue

So on Tuesday, I am going to my first game at the new Yankee Stadium or as I like to call it, HGH - Human Growth Hormone Field, to play the Orioles. I will also be going on Friday to Nationals Park to see the Orioles play the Nationals in Interleague Play!!

so by this time next week I will have an (11) next to my name!! woo hoo!!!

Just got home from a very long day.....just wanted to change my ballpark status from 8 to 9.....will write more later and post pics very soon!

very excited that by this time next week I will have a (9) next to my name. Me, my partner and a friend are going to see the Phillies vs Dodgers on May 12 at Citizens Bank Ballpark!



I got Hall of Fame Level seats on stubhub for a crazy low price so i jumped at the opportunity.



we are gonna take the tour in the morning as well.....any suggestions on what else to do in philly while we wait for the game...i like historic things so it shouldnt be too hard to find things to… Continue

So I joined this site and now I am making it a mission to do a big trip this summer......my partner seems to be on board with this as well.....for now at least :)

Wrigley, Brewers, US Cellular, Progressive, Comerica & Great American



Petco, Chase, Angel, AT & T, McAfee



Rangers, Minute Maid, Kauffman, Busch, Wrigley



all will be… Continue

I have tickets to share an Empire Suite luxury box at Citi Field, I am going with a friend and a few of his friends and the box is also shared with complete strangers....god I love stub hub!!

As much as Shea was near and dear to my heart, we never had these suites/lux boxes, so this is def a 1st for me!

I will write back and hopefully I will have some great pics!

The only stadiums I see myself getting to this year are:



PNC Park - I have plans the 1st week of June to see the Bucs and Mets

Citizens Bank Ballpark - Friends in Philly and since I have never been I must go!

Tropicana Field - Only if the Rays are in the playoffs will I get a chance, since I wont be in Tampa/St Pete until 10/12 for a week

New Yankee Stadium - May 18th vs Baltimore

Nationals Park - I want to go, just to hang out in DC!



so that would add… Continue

So I was down in Balto this past Tuesday to catch the O's and the Chisox....unfortunatly the rains and lightening came and with the game being delayed 1 hour and 38 minutes we had to head back home to NY before even 1 pitch was thrown.



It's ok, the tickets were comps as the O's are having a Birthday Month Free ticket program this month, it was really cool!



It's always great to be at OPACY, its the big brother of all the new retro stadium and for being 17 yrs old, it looks… Continue
