Comment by Mark (53) on July 19, 2012 at 3:12pm: That is quite impressive. Congratulations. Did you ever make it to the two NY stadiums? How about Target Field and Marlins Park? Hope you get to see them soon, if you haven't already. My regret is not getting out to see the Kingdome or Mile High.

Comment by doug duane[50) on June 1, 2009 at 3:52pm: thanks Jack, it has only taken me 54 years to do it. In August I will be getting Nationals new park for my 50th. Possibly one or both new New Yorks but probablt not Depends on whom I am traveling with.. If not this year then maybe the year after. My plan next year is to get the Minnesota more on that much later. Which 6 have you been to?
