Petco, I was so drunk I don't even remember anything about it.

Busch, I don't know what it was but I did not see a single good looking girl in the entire stadium. I know that doesn't have anything to do with the stadium, but I was kind of amazed and maybe didn't pay attention to the stadium much.

The good ones:
Coors Field - awesome views all around
Progressive Field - same as Coors...they are quite similar.
Skydome - lots of cool stuff to do around the ballpark
Bank One - even more cool shite to do around the ballpark. Even SRA tix are worth the wait here. (Yeah, I had to get those during their inaugural season)
Olympic Stadium - empty place, but the stadium was easy to get around in, and they had some pavilion with a concert goin on under the grandstands...pretty cool.
Wrigley Field - didn't see a game...but the atmosphere around the ballpark was still entertaining.
Kingdome - sort of a dump, but the crowd was electric throughout the late 90's.
Ballpark in Arlington - maybe the nicest I have seen.

The not so good.
Astrodome - nothing to this joint. Although it looked a bit nicer than the Kingdome, the experience was still...meh.
Mile High Stadium - saw a game there with 80,000 plus...definitely loud, but it's a football stadium that doesn't quite do the cookie-cutting thing all that well.

Sort of funny how Dodger Statium has become one of MLB's classic old ballparks. Seems to have held up real nicely.

The Big A seems a bit goofy and contrived now with those rocks and waterfalls.

Nothing beats the view at AT&T park in San Francisco on a sunny day.

Tiger Stadium
Riverfront Stadium
Jacobs Field
Busch Stadium
Comerica Park
Angel Stadium of Anaheim (my most recent)

As far as fan experience goes, nothing could beat Anaheim's. Parking is no problem, you can move just about anywhere in the stadium when it's half full, and the people all seem to be pretty friendly, and I saw some good looking chics there as well. A+ Experience. Here are some pictures.

Old Colt 45 Stadium was my first.
Horrible place. Like a big minor league park. Hot, humid, with giant mosquitoes all over the place.
But I did get to see the St. Louis Cardinals with their all-star infield of Boyer, Groat, Javier and White. I think it's the only NL all-star game infield made up from one team.

Best experience was the Astrodome the year it opened. Amazing to walk into an indoor ball park. The colors were so bright. The AC kept at 72 degrees.
