2. Fenway...
Dozens of times. And the BOB in Arizona (once). In the 80s, I went to lots of parks in Florida for Spring Training.

5. Four
The first one was the old Texas Rangers ballpark. That was also the first major league game I elver saw.

The Kindome (yes, I'll count that, because that's where the Mariners played their home games before the new park was built).

Safeco Field.

Giant Stadium.

18. Went to a Memorial Park doubleheader on our Honeymoon!
Briggs Stadium
Fenway Park
Yankee Stadium

In college, went to a Memorial Park night game. My buddy and I had enough money for either another beer or gas to make it back home.

Picked the beer. And made back to school. The next morning the car would not start as it was out of gas:rofl:

I like being outdoors, but I do understand why a domed stadium is a good idea in Tampa.

27. a few
1. Wrigly Field-2000, Cubs vs Cards...Cards won.

2. Kingdome-1993, Mariners vs White Sox, Sox won, and I got to see Bo Jackson break his bat, it was SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTT!...:)

3. Comiskey Park-2000, White Sox vs Mariners...Sox put the worst beating on the Mariners in club history. The final score was like 23-2...what a game to catch...:(

4. Kauffman Stadium-2006-Royals vs Angels, Angels won 5-4 in 10 innings...not a bad stadium actually, the water works is very impressive...:)


Thats it...I would love to go to Yankee Stadium, Fenway, Jacobs Field, Dodger Stadium, and Safeco Field...
