Wrigley easily. You can't beat a sunny day game with a nice cool breeze out in the bleachers

Really? I mean, I appreicate the history of the place, but it was a dump in a terrible neighborhood. The only good thing about Yankee Stadium was the whole "Wow. Babe Ruth played RIGHT there!" and Monument Park.
As an eight year old boy in love with the history of baseball, that was enough for me right there.

First time I went there, it was a day game and it was 85 degrees at first pitch, and 50 degrees in the 9th inning. Freaked me out.

The reason I liked it so much was probably because I'm a Yankee fan. Even outside of that though, it was nostalgic and that was cool. The atmosphere (saw them play the Rangers and the Red Sox) was amazing. VERY passionate fans when I was there.

Take the light rail. Stops at the stadium.
thats exactly what i was going to ask...Friend lives in Arlington and was wondering if there was a rail, how much it costs etc...or how difficult the drive was. Orioles and Rays the weekend I'll be there...Nats are going to be out of town.

be careful where you get your tickets
stadium seats over 30K... but it seems to me like a third of those seats had some significant restriction on their ability to see game
People have gotten much better about designing ballparks with fan visibility in mind IMO

Dodger Stadium by far for me. U.S. Cellular is great now after the remodeling and I always liked Turner Field.
Wrigley is pretty to look at from your seats, but overall it's a dump. There are some bad sight lines, no amenities to speak of, the bathrooms make the ones at Tiger Stadium look like the Sistine Chapel and the food sucks. Oh and the baseball team is pretty shitty too.
