john/z28jd Yankee stadium was alot cooler when I was a kid but I went about 14 years between visits,going there in 2005 and the place is such a dump both inside and outside,if there is any stadium that needs to be remodeled its that.I would have never even thought about tearing it down though,thats just ridiculous. If you dont get to visit it you wont miss much and i believe theyre keeping monument park intact so you could always go see that. Hopefully with the new stadium they clean up the area around it a little
Fenway Park is definitely a must see,Ive been there twice,once for 2 Mets games a couple years ago and once for a playoff game vs the White Sox in 05. Great place and area around the stadium,i was hanging out there 3 hours before the last game of the Mets series.
For pure beauty I would recommend PNC Park,its an amazing view from behind home plate and seats all around the stadium are great and you cant beat the prices,plus the area around the stadium is nice
Citizens Bank isnt bad,prices are high all around but there is plenty of parking,nice around the stadium and some great views from seats depending on where you are,some seats can be a pain to see everything because of the nooks and crannys in the outfield,plus they dont like playing replays there for some reason
Shea Stadium is a dump too and it doesnt have the mystique of Yankee Stadium,plus they have even less parking than before due to the new stadium being built in the middle of the parking lot. If you miss Shea dont feel bad
Forgot about Camden Yards which is a nice stadium,has a ton of parking and the Babe Ruth birthplace and museum is right around the corner and a must visit. Ive been there 3 times and really like the place,although they raise the prices for the Yankees and Red Sox games substancially,i hate when teams do that.
I would recommend in order Fenway,PNC,Camden and Citizens Bank. The 2 new york ones just arent that great but if you had to see one its definitely Yankee stadium, Shea is garbage. I have tickets for the first game at the new Nationals Ballpark,that one looks like its going to be real nice!
