Baseball stadiums, mostly corporate, mostly on their way out, but all cool.

What about stadia that are no longer around? Of those, I went to games at:
Memorial Stadium (Baltimore)
Candlestick Park (SF)
The Astrodome (Houston)
Olympic Stadium (Montreal)
Cleveland Municipal Stadium
Fulton County Stadium (Atlanta)
The old Cincinnatti stadium
The old Milwaukee stadium

I see the Vet has been added – what about the ones that odyssia lists? Plus the old Comiskey Park, Tigers Stadium, Three Rivers Stadium (Pittsburgh), the Kingdome – all throwbacks to the pre-corporate era.

Likewise, I’ve been to:
Old Comiskey (never, ever do I call the new one US Cellular)
Old Busch (not the 2006 stadium, the older one)
Old Cincinati
Three Rivers
County Stadium in Milwaukee
Tiger Stadium

I substituted Nationals park for RFK – sorry if that causes anyone’s % to decrease, but otherwise anyone who’s never been to RFK could never get to 100%!
But oh, oh, I never want to delete Yankee Stadium…

I can hardly believe that the Yankees are building a new stadium. This just seems like a big, big, huge-enormous mistake. Baseball, in my mind, is partly about tradition, hence my opinion. Oh well, just another reason to hate the Yankees.
What’s crazy? Dodger Stadium will move into the space of 3rd oldest Major League ballpark in use next season. That just seems wrong in a way.

Yes, the list is in a different order. I am, slowly to be sure, putting it in order of age of the stadium, since there didn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason to the previous order. Alphabetical by stadium or team name didn’t seem very fun. So age it is.
