Cool Major League Ballpark Seats
This is in regards to places I've sat before...
(Please share your own seats you've enjoyed)
PNC Park- upper deck 3rd baseline... great view of the city, bridges and river, best view in baseball!
Fenway- seats near Pesky Pole (bring a sharpie to sign it)... your as close as you can get to the action in fair territory in the majors, very unique view of entire outfield and Green Monster.
Great American Ball Park- right center field stands... when you go out to get concessions you have an awesome view of the Ohio River and Kentucky, and you are a short walk away from the mist machine located under the smoke stacks beyond center field during hot/humid games.
Camden Yards- not really a seat, but standing room only above the high right field wall... great place to soak up the sun and take in a game, beyond gate is Eutaw St. where markings lie of home run blasts (player&date). Eutaw St. is great to roam during a game (very busy, social, concessions, etc.)
Citizens Bank- left field seats... known as being a home run porch, actually saw a home run hit directly to the Phillie Phanatic there, offers a decent view of the home run liberty bell too.
Rogers Centre- anywhere upper deck... you are close in proximity to seeing the roof open and close which is quite a site up close... when the roof is open you have a unique view looking up at the CN Tower.
Anyone have cool seats they have sat in to share?
Below is a site that rated the top 10 seats overall in MLB.

Great idea for a blog, Mike. Generally my favorite place to sit is behind home plate in the upper deck (given my limited financial status). But there are definitely advantages and disadvantages to different seats everywhere. Incidentally, I'd beware of the Pesky Pole seats, believe it or not, you're better off in the outfield than down the line...anyone who's been there knows what I'm talking about!

Seats you mentioned are great because you can see how every position player reacts on every play and how every play unfolds.

Great post, Mike! I would have to say my favorite seat at a ballpark has to be the 2nd or 3rd level, directly behind home plate, row 1. The ticket is usually inexpensive and the view is amazing!
As far as famous seats around Major League Baseball, I would love to sit in Bartman's seat!
I am surprised ESPN's list did not include the swimming pool seats at Chase Field!
