| How many mlb stadiums have you been to and which was your favorite?
I thought it would be fun to hear where you all have been to see games around the country and what was your favorite stadium? I am a young guy and have not been to as many games as I am sure some of you have, but I have been fortunate to make a few rounds when I was in a geographical location to allow me the privledge.
I have been to San Diego when they were still in Qualcomm, Anaheim twice, Dodger stadium, Coors field, the last Busch Stadium, the Astrodome, Safeco Field, and Great American Ball Park in cincy a few times.
In terms of what I thought the coolest field was I would have to go with Safeco. If you have ever seen it from the outside from the highway and then gone inside it is pretty cool from both perspectives. But in terms of overall my favorite place to watch a pro ball game I would have to say Anaheim. The waterfall and rock formation is just something you don't see at a stadium.
Would love to hear what others have experienced and maybe some cool stories while you were there.

| Fenway, old and new Yankee, Shea, Camden Yards, and Philly. Naturally i have a bias towards the Fens, i've sat about everywhere, the Monster and RF roof bar were about equal. Comfort wise, new Yankee Stadium is nice, plenty of room to move about, plus it has some of the feel of an older park. |

| The rank and file ticket prices at Yankee arent astronomical, but they are a bit higher than Boston, which i assume is probably higher than everyóne else. However, they take price gouging on concessions to a new level. | |
