I hate the Scrubs - but it's Wrigley hands-down
I like Ed's list...I forgot to include Kauffman. That is a great ballpark.
How about the follow-up question: what makes a great ballpark in your opinion?
Been to 39 MLB Parks and 26 of the current parks. My top 10 and no real order after Fenway as it sits alone at the top and the other 9 are just parks I really enjoyed.
1 - My home town Fenway!
2 - Wrigley (but I wish they would spend $$ to fix it up like the Red So have)
3 - AT & T
4 - Camden
5 - Ballpark at Arlington
6 - Kauffman
7 - Dodger Stadium
8- Safeco
9 - PNC
10 - The Jake (Progressive)
I loved the history of old Tiger Stadium, Tribe's Municipal and Old Comisky.
The wrecking ball could not find Shea, Asterdome and the Skydome fast enough. The Brewer's and Rangers old parks were dumps as well, but not as bad the first three which were the worst of all time.
Well off to Fenway tonight to see them beat the hated Yankees....
My list of parks that I have been to (only counting current stadiums, otherwise Yankee Stadium would be #1 on my list):
1. Wrigley
2. AT&T
3. Fenway
4. Petco
5. Safeco
My top 10: Its tough to rank them as the new ones are all so great and fun to go to. But they miss the historical feeling of my top 2. The rankings can be too subjective and biased.
Fenway Park |
Wrigley Field |
PNC Park |
Petco Park |
AT&T Park |
Camden Yards |
Yankee Stadium |
Safeco Field |
Citi Field |
Nationals Park |
My top five:
1) Oriole Park at Camden Yards
2) PNC Park
3) Comerica Park
4) Wrigley Field
5) Fenway Park
Oh what the heck I'll go for ten:
6) Citizens Bank Park
7) Rangers Ballpark in Arlington
8) Busch Stadium
9) Yankee Stadium
10) Nationals Park
Now this list is from someone who has not yet been out to any on the west coast, so I haven't seen Chase, Coors, Safeco, Petco or AT&T. Will probably need to revise this later...
