Best Stadium In MLB Contest! (AL East) 

Post#1 » by SportsWorld » Sun Apr 8, 2007 7:01 am

That's right it's baccccckkkkkkkkkk.
I've decided to do a poll of each teams stadium and REALGM gets to decide which team has the coolest stadium in the MLB!

The tournament will work like a playoff system, each poll running for two days. The winner of each group will go to an AL or a NL final.

Tropicana Field

Rogers Centre

Oriole Park At Camden Yards

Fenway Park

Image
Image

Yankee Stadium

My Final Rankings:
1. Fenway Park
2. Yankee Stadium
3. Oriole Park At Camden Yards
4. Rogers Centre
5. Tropicana Field

With the exception of Tropicana this is one hell of a list.

Is there any doubt who wins in the AL east?

1.Fenway Park
2.Camden Yards
3.Yankee Stadium
5.Rogers Center
5.Tropicana Field


Any baseball stadium with artificial turf, automatically places it in last place.

Well I would think their fans have common sense. Rogers stadium IMO is ugly. Too much exposed concrete, hideous artificial turf, dark and dreary looking, outside the stadium it looks like a 1970's hockey arena. You take out the hotel in centerfield and it basically looks like Montreal's Olympic Stadium.

I'm going off of looks, not history. Oriole Park for me.

Probably Camden, but Fenway has that aura about it. It's just magical. A night game there in mid-August with the lights on. Magical.

Yankee Stadium is toilet, Tropicana Feild is just the ugliest thing since they tore down the Kingdome and Toronto has artificial turf.

I agree. I've been to both Camden and Fenway, Fenway is just a surreal atmosphere with the smallness of the ballpark+the green monster. Also the fans in Boston are a lot like the ones in NY which adds to the crazy atmosphere there. Camden yards the atmosphere is ok, nothing special. The fans there are nothing like NY, Boston or Philly. What I do like about Camden is, you get the feeling you're right on top of the action which is important to me when I go to a game. I hate stadiums where the stands are so far from the field, you feel sort of disconnected.

Yankee Stadium.

Fenway is old and antiquated and needs to be put out of its misery soon. Camden Yards is gorgeous though... that's my #2 choice. Never been to Rogers or Tropicana field, but Tropicana just doesn't do anything for me.

Tropicana has no shot. The Canadians will all pick Toronto's, Yankees, Sox, and O's all have historic stadiums.

I actually like the Trop. The fact that its the only stadium with turf, and still has dirt basepaths like all stadiums with grass do.

Tropicana Feild is a crime against humanity.
