Minneapolis, MN 55403

Category: Stadiums & Arenas

Neighbourhood: Downtown Minneapolis

5.0 star rating
  7/1/2011

Target Field was the single best tourist destination for me while in Minnesota.

The behind the scenes tour of this state of the art baseball field (only built in 2010) was amazing.  My friend and I went on a Friday afternoon, and luckily ended up in a…More »

I don't know about the team that plays on the it, but Citi Field is an Amazing Field!!!

  7/3/2011

Bank One Ballpark, as I have known it, was quite simply the best Major League baseball stadium I had been to when I saw good old Randy Johnson pitch a complete game shutout back during he D'backs' Championship year of 2001.

It was just perfect timing…More »

Category: Stadiums & Arenas

Neighbourhood: Concourse Village

4.0 star rating
  7/3/2011

The New Yankee Stadium (2009-) is great!  It is a huge upgrade over the previous steeped-in-history stadium (1923-2008), the House That Ruth Built.

However, Cit Field, which was also completed in 2009, vastly overshines it.…More »

Neighbourhood: Concourse Village

5.0 star rating
  7/29/2010

Review Based on the Old Yankee Stadium (1923-2008).

Tours of the old Yankee Stadium were held during the season on days other than home games.  No reservations were necessary, and all you had to do was show up and purchase a stadium tour ticket.  When…More »

Category: Stadiums & Arenas

Neighbourhood: Camden Yards

4.0 star rating
  7/3/2011

Camden Yards is the stadium that started a revolution.

Credit all deserves to be given to Camden Yards for bringing an end to the ugly and hideous era of the cookie cutter stadium, upon its completion in 1992.
" The great success of Camden Yards which…More »

Safeco Field, home of the Seattle Mariners, opened in 1999, two years before the arrival of Ichiro.

From the outside, the structure looks ugly and like a steel skeleton structure resembling a mutli-story parking lot.  The…More »

4.0 star rating
  7/3/2011

Kauffman Stadium, home of the Kansas City Royals is a surprisingly nice baseball stadium.

When my friend and I visited KC in April, for the Oz Marathon, we were able to sneak in a game here against the Seattle Mariners.  The Royals did well and…More »

3.0 star rating
  7/3/2011

The old Yankee Stadium was hallowed ground, and being in it gave you a sense of its illustrious history.  Despite all that, it really was time for it to go, sad to say.  Facility-wise, it was lacking in many departments.  As a stadium, it just…More »

Despite all of the criticisms and complaints I have enjoyed every trip I have made to Montreal's Olympic Stadium.

I went in:
- 1998: To sightsee and ride the elevator to the top of the tower.
- 2003: To view a Montreal Expos home game against the LA…More »

Shea Stadium was hideous.

All cookie cutter stadiums were hideous.  I am glad that Shea is gone, and in its place is the marvelous structure known as Citi Field.  Being a Yankees fan, even I admit that Citi Field is one of the nicest field in the…More »

The Sky Dome: From Best to Worst in 20 Years.

Back in the early 1990's the Sky Dome was a state of the art baseball complex!  (Note: I refuse to call this place the "Rogers Centre".  Sky Dome all the way!  Down with the commercialisation of sports…More »
