I have gone to quite a few but I would have to say that new Busch stadium is awesome. A lot better than the older one.

Jacobs is nice, but to be honest, I like the Pirates park better. To bad they cant fill it.

Turner Field and Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
Saw one of my favorite teams play in a series with the Rangers. This team was the Mariners team that had Griffey Jr., Edgar Martinez, Randy Johnson, Jay Buhner, ARod, and so on. Pretty exciting. Also saw the Braves during one year in the 94-96 range kinda young to remember specifically.

Fulton Co, Arlington, and Turner Field. Obvious Braves fan here..I love Turner Field. Arlington is a beautiful stadium too. Cant wait to see this coast's ballparks. Wherever the Braves go I will be there. Guess looking forward to SAN Fran's and Dodger Stadium the most for next year.

I'm actually a pretty big baseball fan, but haven't been to too many MLB parks. Just never had the extra cash to travel that much.

Cincy - Riverfront & GABP
St. Louis - Busch Stadium (the previous one, or Busch II. I guess the current one is the third St. Louis park to be named Busch Stadium.)

Of those, Riverfront has the best memories for me, but GABP is the best overall park.

I'd love to go to Wrigley, Fenway, Jacobs and PNC sometime. I could take or leave Yankee stadium to be honest.

that is kind of the way i feel about fenway and wrigley. i would like to see a game at each, but i don't know if i could deal with the red sox or cubs fans while there. no offense to those fans here on the nation.

I don't know, Yankee Stadium has never seemed all that interesting to me. It's always seemed like half of the lure for most people is the history of the Yankees players who played there. And since I've always kinda hated the Yankees, I don't feel that drawn to it. Either park, old or new, didn't seem to have that much unique going for it architecturally speaking, and when I'd see a Yankee game on tv, the atmosphere of the park didn't look all that intriguing either. Just kinda looked like a pretty standard baseball park, with a memorial area just outside the outfield. But it's never really seemed like hallowed ground to me the way some people talk about it.

The obnoxiousness amongst Sox fans is mainly found among the pink hats who have been around since '03/'04. These are a national phenomenon as opposed to a New England one, so you won't find many at the park. I've taken fans of opposing teams to several games, and nothing outside of the usual good natured smack talk has happened. There are no more or less drunken morons than you'll find at any other pro sporting event.

Been to Chavez Ravine, old Arlington Stadium, Kingdome/SafeCo and Wrigley for games. Got to wander around Fenway once, too. Wrigley has been by far my favorite atmosphere for a game, and SafeCo has been the neatest field IMO.

I will name teams since the stadium names are a pain:
Braves, Marlins, Rays, Reds, Cubs, Cardinals, Rangers, Astros, Rockies, Red Sox, White Sox, Yankees, Mets, Twins, Orioles, Pirates, Phillies
(I used to be a vendor to MLB, I have been to every spring training stadium and camp and that is much more fun)

any executive job in MLB would be fun, I was a rep for a protective equipment company and worked with the catchers of each team

Thought of this watching the Yankees-Orioles and I see it's already a thread. My choices:

1. Camden Yards. Not a bad seat in the place, classic look, love the warehouse and great concessions.

2. PNC Park. Surprisingly underrated.

3. Original Busch- good views and great atmosphere

4. Kaufman Stadium- scenic and great views everywhere.

5. Ballpark at Arlington- GREAT setup, classic style.
6. Nationals Park
7. GABP
8. Miller Park (did get to stand in the batters box and sit in the dugouts there though)
9. New Busch
10. Citizens Bank
11. Turner
12. Riverfront Stadium
13. Altanta Fulton County Stadium
14. Vet
15. Pro Player Stadium (Marlins original)
16. RFK (Nationals original)
Got to walk through Wrigley and US Cellular but haven't seen games there. Went by Yankee Stadium and Shea.

You guys need to check out Petco Park, here in SD. It's a ridiculous ballpark
