Major League Ballpark with the best food.
When the Padres played at Qualcomm the hot dogs were bigger. They had "Fire Dogs" too. Now at Petco they only sell regular sized dogs and they aint what they used to be.
I hear that the food in Chicago and Milwaukee is pretty damn good.

1. Best food is outside Fenway Park
Sausage grinders from street vendors. Yummm! I could never afford to eat inside a ballpark, so my son and I always ate before ant then after the game. :)

3. Crabcakes? I LOVE Crabcakes!
Qualcomm used to sell fish tacos and turkey legs. Randy Jones, former Padres pitching ace, had a BBQ there too. Good stuff. I went to Petco once and didnt notice RJ's BBQ.

11. just to clarify..
after reading my post, it might suggest that Rubio's is out in center field. I'm not certain where it's located at The Pet, but I know it's there somewhere. We should catch a game together sometime.

5. Well, it certainly ain't current Busch Stadium
Hopefully the food choices will be better at the new ballpark.

12. Baltimore: Ribs and crabcakes
Chicago has good brats and polish dogs up on the porch overlooking the entrance and down underground sorta behind home plate. I hear Milwaukee has outstanding food.

But when I go to Wrigley, there is a place next door that sells brats all dressed for about half the price they cost inside. So that is usually the way I go.

From my memory, Fenway had the worst food. Yankee Stadium's is pretty bad too, and way overpriced. It's actually worth wearing a jacket and tie to eat at the club before the game, if you have season's tickets.

At Wrigley, if you're in one of the suites, they come around with a dessert cart around the sixth inning, and they have a home made turtle the size of your head. Ooog.

17. Safeco Field - Seattle
The BBQ is done over real wood, and the smoke wafts into left field, ironic in a non-smoking facility.

Kidd Valley Burgers operates a stand. Great burgers, fantastic shakes.

I would buy my hot dogs outside and bring them in, popcorn and peanuts too. But the treats listed above were worth the extra price.
