Of these, I’ve only been to Comerica and Dolphin Stadium and I must say – the fans have them right on both accounts. Comerica is absolutely beautiful and there isn’t really a bad seat in the house. Dolphin Stadium on the other hand, feels like you’re watching the game from the moon, which makes sense considering it’s a football stadium.
This makes ense when you look at all the citeria they used, which is pretty fair.
The Jake (I still call it that) is a great place. I was there when it opened and have had many great times there. I think it’s definitely one of the best, though I think some of the more recent parks like the one in SF have improved upon the concept a little.
Interesting for sure ………. but I would like to make my own list.
I don’t understand why SF is way down at 17 ? Also, Cinn, and L.A.’s stadiums are way down …. don’t get it.
Shea is a toilet !
