Rowand44 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I really didnt mind fenway, didnt like it but didn't think it was awful. For me yankee stadium and especially dodger stadium were much crappier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_genius Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Fenway is great. Wrigley, by far, is the worst stadium in all professional sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 The only stadium I've been to is the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. It's nothing to brag about, I'll tell you that. The seats suck and it's even worse for football games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(Soxy @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 02:47 PM) The Roller dome. Horrible place to try and watch a game. Just crappy. Plus it has the swastika. I still don't believe the swastika was intentional. On September 10th I looked at it and you have to actually look for it to notice it. Not that that's the reason that it wasn't intentional. I just have a hard time believing it. Edited November 18, 2005 by WilliamTell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 11:17 PM) As a side note, my father, who is way more knowledgable about stadiums than I am, has said that his trip to Pacbell was the best stadium he's every experienced. I'm curious to here if anyone else has been there, and what they have to say about it. Phenomenal. Right in worst spammer ever, walk into the stadium, sit down and there is the water right there. Everything about this park is so dead on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxtalk.com, 1st attack an ump..than post. from Thursday's New York Post which is never wrong with facts Vallone, who chairs the council Public Safety Committee, said the crackdown is a follow-up to a recently approved law that boosted penalties against wacky fans who run on the field. A fan had blindsided the Chicago White Sox's first-base coach last year. http://www.nypost.com/seven/11172005/news/...lnews/31437.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Haven't been to any of those except USCF, which I think is a beautiful park and a great place to see a baseball game. Of the parks I've been to, I'd say Busch Stadium WAS ( thank God for that wrecking ball ) the biggest dump. Bland, dismal s***hole - the Cardinal fans are finally getting the ballpark they deserve.

The Racehorse Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 11:18 AM) ......Wrigley is the definition of hellhole. The windows dirty the mattress stinks This ain't no place to be a man Ain't got no future, ain't got no past And I don't think I ever can The floor is filthy the walls are thin The wind is howling in my face The rats are peeling, I'm losing ground Can't seem to join the human race. --- Hell Hole, Spinal Tap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullcollapse Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 (edited) i go to the dome a couple times each year for sox games. i don't think it is quite as bad as everyone says it is. i'm not saying it is great or anything, and i think they do need a new stadium, but not as terrible as everyone makes it out to be. the concourse isn't very wide and most of the seats don't face home plate. the new turf makes it look a lot better. i was at uscf in 02 and then didn't make it back until this year. i really enjoyed the stadium. i thought it was great place to see a game. i think it has really gotten better the last few years. like everyone else i'd like to go to sbc. i thought pnc was also very nice. i've never been to any of the other stadiums on the list, but the worst i've been to is wrigley. although people i've talked to said yankee stadium is pretty bad.

Rex Kickass Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 12:17 PM) Why yes.. it does. Along with nasty food, warm beer, and absolutely frightening bathrooms. Don't forget netting to catch any chunks of it that might fall on your head. Shea Stadium is a bit of a hole, but its got a lot of history and its own charms. The only thing that really bothers me about that stadium is that you can't walk all the way around it. There's no outfield concourse or common area.

I would take this out of the equation, since it seems now that everyone, everywhere is on their goddamned cellphones every waking moment of every single day. I have seen COUNTLESS examples of people on their cellphones at USCF, as well as anywhere else you'd care to mention. Just check the scout seats at USCF any game of the year - there's always a fresh new batch of f***tards waving at their thick-foreheaded sister/wives watching at home. YEAH, Cleatus, we can see you ALL THE WAY at OUR HOUSE!!! It's called TELEVISION, it's been around a while.....

Sox1422 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Tropicana Field is absolutely the worst stadium I have ever been to. However, you can't beat $1 beer in the "Beach" (Nose bleeds) on Friday Nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
