I went to see the Texas Rangers play in Erving TX back in 1979 or 80, I was around 9 years old, I don't remember much about it, except, it was the first time I ever ate nachos !

I have been to Wrigley, Comiskey Park and The Cell. I love Wrigley, but I am a Cub fan and my parents always took me to games I can remember going back in the late 70's and 80's I remember my dad getting me a foul ball and going by the dugout and getting Barry Bonds to sign it when he was with the Pirates. I also remember waiting by the fence after the games to get the cubbies to sign programs. I still go to Wrigley now I take my kids and my dad. I have gone to so many cubs games in the last 34 years but I still look forward and feel like a kid when I go...
I also have to say that I enjoyed Old Comiskey before they made a parking lot out of it. I only went there a few times as my dads work would have company picnics there. I do not like the Cell.
I am going to Fenway in August I have high hopes for that!! I have heard it is similar to Wrigley....

As much as I love baseball I've only been fortunate enough to see games in 3 ballparks: Comiskey Park - Chicago White Sox, Detroit Stadium - Detroit Tigers, and Dodger Stadium - Los Angeles Dodgers.
One experience that particularly stands out was about 3 years ago when the Dodgers were playing the Expos. The Dodgers were down in the 8th inning but mounting a comeback. I was sitting next to my dad and I told him that if LA could rally we would be in for a special treat. That Eric Gagne was in the bullpen warming up, one of the best closers in the game. To my delight the Dodgers scored a couple of runs to take the lead. In came Gagne. And it was truly an incredible sight. The music in the stadium was blaring and the fans were going nuts as he made the long walk to the mound. Gagne struck out the first batter he faced, and the decibel level in the stadium went up a notch. He then struck out the second batter and the place was electric. And in storybook fashion, he struck out the third batter. There was so much jubilation! It was a truly enjoyable MLB experience.

Been to Fenway, Yankee Stadium, Shea, Dolphins Stadium, Dodger Stadium and Angel Stadium. Fenway is the best: (1) fans are friendly to each other*, (2) always a sellout, (3) fans come early and stay until the end, and (4) you get to sing Sweet Caroline in the 8th, Dirty Water and Tessie after the game if the Sox win and not knowing how to sing or what the words are does not count against you.
* Does not apply to Yankee fans

Miami..to see the Marlins. The weather is always about 85-90 degrees so its very nice to see 75% of the hottest women in bikini tops and short shorts. Also, because the stadium is never sold out--half way through the game you can move down from the cheap seats and get a better view.

I have seen them in Seattle.
Watched the Orioles clean Seattle's clock in '97
I have been to lots of A's games in Oakland.
Watched Maguire sprain his ankle sliding into 3rd on Easter Sunday of '93
Saw Ricky Henderson steal a lot of bases there,too.
Bleachers in right field are THE BEST seats in the house and I sat all over trying to find the best.
Turns out the cheap seats were definately the best there!

Been to Comisky, the Cell, the New Milwaukee stadium and Wrigley Field (many times). Wrigley is the best. I have heard a couple opinions that Dodgers stadium is excellent and that Yankees stadium is one that I have to go to. My next out of state game is to see the green monster before they tear down that stadium (yes, I know opinions vary on if and when....)

I've been to so many that it's impossible to remember one. I went to games at old Atlanta Stadium and Turner Field. I love to get a hotdog and drink a few beers. I love the Braves! Oh yeah, in 1988 I got a foul ball in the stands and still have it today!

I've seen a ton of games in Boston and Toronto, and one game in Detroit.
All three parks are very different, but Fenway has to take the cake because it's such a classic venue. The SkyDome/Rogers Centre in Toronto is awesome too, but in a newer, shinier, bigger kinda way. Detroit was cool... felt very small.

McAfee in Oakland, AT&T in San Franciso, and Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.Kauffman Stadium is by far my favorite because the Royals are my favorite team but also because it is so pretty there with the fountains and all that.

I've been to plenty of twins games, and I went to a cardinals-royals game when it was tghe first year if interleague. The old Busch stadium was sweet and the new one is even better.
