Just going with the Pros here, but feel free to talk college stadiums.
What is your favorite venue to go to in Houston? Which of our stadiums do you feel is the best?
We have three outstanding sports facilities here in Houston. Top of the line stadiums in Toyota Center, Reliant and Minute Maid. That is fitting for a city that is home to the Eighth Wonder of the World.
If I had to choose which stadium was my favorite, I'd have to go with Minute Maid. It has the most charm to me, plus the surrounding area is a lot of fun and can make for a good night out. Reliant is easily our most impressive stadium, but it is in an isolated area compared to TC and Minute Maid.
Basketball is, by far & away my favorite pro sport, but Toyota Center comes in at #3 for me with our stadiums. It's not a knock on it - it is a great facility - it's just that it seems kind of standard compared to Minute Maid & Reliant.
The Monument to Hakeem is freaking awesome, tho!

Re: Best Stadium in Houston
iv been lucky enough to have been to all 3. im not a big baseball fan but minute maid park was cool. it was laid back and relaxing. toyota center was probably my favorite because i enjoyed it the most, it was more live and entertaining. when i went to the reliant stadium the crowd was lame, no energy whatsoever... i would rather watch football at home with people that gets excited. being in reliant stadium makes you miss a setting like a UT football game, where its live and loud for 4 quarters.

Re: Best Stadium in Houston
Baseball is not my favorite sport unless I am at the game. Love Enron Field errr Minute Maid Park. Cheap seats but that is because the amount of games. Not a lot of bad areas to watch the game unless you are in the Nose bleeds but that come with to territory. At Minute Maid there is only the game so everybody has their @$$ in the seats when the game is going. When the Stros are on fire that stadium is loaded and deafening. Toyota has to much going on and people specially in the lower bowl are in Jack Daniels lounge. TC is loud but not like Minute Maid with its roof close. Also can't go wrong with the seventh ing stretch and DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

Re: Best Stadium in Houston
The Rockets games I've been to in TC have seen my butt planted in the seats, so I guess I haven't experienced any of the other stuff going on.
