Watching my White Sox take on the A’s tonight in Oakland. We don’t play there much (thank god) but got me thinking what is the shittiest stadium you’ve ever seen a game in? I can’t imagine many are worst than this abomination. Sucks for A’s fans but MLB needs to seriously consider relocating the team to Vegas. The stadium is shitty to a point where player safety is a problem. (Eloy was drilled by a foul ball on the bench because there are no guard rails)

On and the A’s fans horns that go off all night don’t make the viewing experience much better lol

Oakland Coliseum is the correct answer. Tropicana Field a close second, but at least the Trop wasn't old and filthy.

I saw a game in Oakland like 12-13 years ago and it was a shithole then. Can't imagine what it's like now.

1 redeeming quality: the garlic fries were legit

White Sox Talk changing their twitter name to Vuvuzela Talk was a nice touch tonight.

The vuvuzelas and football field sized foul territory make it awful watching games there

Saw the Nationals play in RFK during their inaugural season. That place was horrible.

If you take out the nostalgia, Wrigley is a complete shithole.

Kingdome is worst for me. The thing is, I went there in ‘95 when the team was getting good, so the place was rocking and fun.

I’m old school. I don’t need all the bells and whistles. At the least, I like a nice view, which is what makes places like Pittsburgh and St. Louis so amazing. Oakland wasn’t even that bad until they built Mt. Davis.

very close between wrigley and oakland. unfortunately, wrigley has us all brainwashed (including myself) so i thought it was cool that it sucked and i just thought oakland sucked.

I've been. I have mixed feelings on it. Probably the worst of the ones I have been to. Everything is cramped.

Camden is probably the best stadium I've been to as far as food selection, affordability and experience. I'd have bought season tickets if I lived there.

Probably Legion Field although I don't think it's really that bad- it's basically the lower bowl of Jordan Hare if JHS was abandoned for 20 years and in a shite neighborhood.

Though I loved the Rose Bowl, if that stadium were located anywhere else it would absolutely be the worst

I don’t think it’s ‘brainwashed’. Wrigley sells an experience, not just a game. Even now after recent upgrades, it’s still like seeing a game in a time capsule.
