4: Tiger Stadium, Comerica Park, Riverfront Stadium, and Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

Ice please change my vote to 4-6, just remembered Riverfront, I was probably 6 at the time so its very vague.

I've seen a couple of minor league games in person too.

2. Anaheim Stadium
3. PacBell/SBC/AT&T Park
4. Petco Park

I voted 10+. I've probably watched a baseball game in 20+ stadiums over the years, but I just realized that most of these "old stadiums" are decomissioned or demolished. Hmmm...just off the top-of-my head:

- Detroit Tiger Stadium
- Chicago Comisky Park
- Cleveland (the 80K seat massive dump) *horrible
- Cincinnati (Riverfront Stadium) *really horrible
- Pittsburgh (Three Rivers Stadium) *really horrible
- Philadephia (Veterans Stadium) *same as Cinci/Pitt
- Milwaukee (County Stadium?)
- Minnesota (Metro Stadium?)
- San Francisco (Candlestick Park)
- Atlanta (Fulton County Stadium)
- New York (Yankee Stadium)
- Montreal (Olympic Park)
- Baltimore (Memorial Stadium) *although I did see CFL football after the team moved to Camden Yards

My favorite stadium of all-time: Tiger Stadium (although I may be somewhat biased)

I absolutely LOVED Tiger Stadium.

Me too...and not just because of all the childhood memories. It was just a very intimate setting. I wish I could get one-half as excited about Comerica Park - changing the name would be a good start.

Unfortunately we'll never share that experience ever again. :river Anyway, as much as I like some of the newer stadiums they are sure starting to look and feel an awful lot alike. Camden Yards was unique, but having a dozen Camden-like Yards around the league is getting old fast. At least they are a HUGE improvement over the former stadiums (I wouldn't call them ballparks) in Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Minnesota just to name a few.
