I can only come up with 4.



4. Great American Ballpark - Doesn't this place get to 130 degrees on field in the summer?

3. Tropicana Field - A total dump of a stadium by all accounts. No personal experience.

2. O.co Coliseum - Baseball in a football stadium is always a bad thing. The A's need to rid us of this phenomenon, once and for all.

1. Sun Life Stadium - Baseball in a football stadium, plus the terrible heat / humidity of Miami. This team deserved a new stadium 10 years ago.



BQ: The Metrodome. A dome and a dual purpose stadium. It commits every sin of the bad baseball park. The Kingdome was the same thing, but the Metrodome has it worse because it was still in use as of two years ago.

5. PETCO Park -- dumb name, baseball and pets don't go

4. Sun Life Stadium -- the orange seats...no one ever goes to the games...

3. Minute Maid Park -- the dumb hill in center

2. Fenway Park -- worst dumbest dimensions ever, what would be a fly out in a normal stadium turns into a home run, and what would be a line drive home run, turns into a single off the wall

1. Tropicana Field -- baseball should not be played indoors in Florida, period



(1 is the worst, 5 is the least of the worst)



The Metrodome would be without a doubt the worst if the Twins still used it.



The most normal one has to be U.S. Cellular field, it doesn't get any normaller than that.

the guy who suggested Dodger Stadium ought to be slapped. heavily you're an fool. a million. Marlins- Land Shark Stadium(its not even a baseball stadium and that they draw in uncomplicated terms 4000 a night. 2. Blue Jays- Rodgers Stadium(seems undesirable on the exterior and doesnt get lots extra advantageous on the interior) 3. A's- Oakland Stadium(a monstrosity of a baseball field with boundless foul ball territory and prefer the Marlins stadium its a soccer field) 4.Rays- Tropicana field(somewhat grotesque on the exterior and is incredibly uncomplicated and small on the interior. Plus in case you hit a pop up too extreme it ought to hit the cat walk) 5. Reds- great American Ballpark(you will think of with a recognition like that it would be some thing specific. nicely its not, its grotesque, its small, and the atmosphere attempting to the outfield is terrible)

1. Sunlife stadium - half of it has to be because of the total lack of people there (374 at one game!). It is a football stadium not a baseball stadium so the seating isnt natural.

2. Tropicana Field - baseball isnt meant to be played indoors, and it is a huge pain in the a*s every time the ball hits the cat walk

3. Minute Maid Park - hill in center

4. Oakland Coliseum - like sunlife, a football stadium

5. Dodgers Stadium - no security at all

Dolphin Stadium, i think that's the name (Marlins)

Oakland Colliseum(A's)

Tropicana Field(Rays)



I've been to every ballpark, and these are the only 3 that I didn't enjoy as much. The Rays were ok, it was just the turf that annoyed me.



Worst of all time...Olympic Stadium or the Metrodome.

I don't know about the rest but there's a #1. Easily Tropicana Field. It's not even in Tampa, it's in St. Petersburg which means, with traffic, you're looking at HOURS to get back and forth. It really makes it hard on the fan base and kills baseball down there. I mean they couldn't even fill up their stadium the year after they went to the World Series.



And that's without even taking into account the stupid catwalk.

1) Wrigley Field

2) Oakland Coliseum

3) Minute Maid Park

4) Coors Field

5) Rogers Center



BQ: Wrigley Field, that eyesore is an absolute nightmare. It's ironic, that Chicago, home of so many architectural marvels, still houses that archaic wreck of a stadium.

My least favorite:



5. Citizen bank park

4. Turner Field (bad memories, not a very nice looking place)

3. Tropicana Field

2. Rogers Centre

1. The Marlins stadium that changes its name every five minutes (right now it's Sunlife). Thankfully they're building a new stadium, it'll definitely double their attendance. The new place will get as many as four people per game!



BQ: I don't know, maybe the Vet, maybe the Astrodome, maybe Shea Stadium ("it was a dump, but it was our dump" so goes the saying).

5. Great American "Smallpark"

4. Coors Field - of the newer stadiums nothing really stands out here.

3. Oakland coliseum

2. Tropicana Field

1. Sun Life



BQ: Shea Stadium. Never went there but even Mets fans considered it a dump and fans were very hostile there.



Is it the Mets fans giving me the thumbs down? Ironically I have fond memories of the Cards winning there in '85 and who could forget Terry Pendleton's home run in '87.

Rogers Centre by far: it's not much more than a loud commercial for the Rogers company.

The atmosphere is peculiar; people do nothing until the scoreboard tells them to.

Fan support is dull: yelling "so and so sucks" is pretty weak.

The beer costs way too much.

The Trop. I hate it, but we aren't getting a new one anytime soon.
