Shea 30th in food.

well OK, YS 20th, close enough.

^^ loses all credibility with me by rating the wrigleyville neighborhood #2. i would trade wrigleyville (if we could somehow keep the gingerman pub) for one of those weird mobbed up southwest suburbs if possible.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 1 May 2008 16:14 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah, wrigleyville is awful!

Tracer Hand, Thursday, 1 May 2008 16:32 (fifteen years ago) link

wtf is wrong with wrigleyville?

deeznuts, Thursday, 1 May 2008 16:56 (fifteen years ago) link

next to division street, it's the douchebag nexus of the midwest.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 1 May 2008 16:59 (fifteen years ago) link

and the gay bars are bad.

I did not know Manny Sanguillen had a BBQ stand in Pgh.

The Neighborhood around Petco Park is #1 somehow. I don't how see that could possibly be the case.

wrigleyville is pretty great but i wouldn't want to live right around there during baseball season. my dad grew up 2 blocks from there and used to have an afterschool job with some friends at wrigley, cleaning up the bleachers after games.

pro player really is the worst stadium in the history of baseball

J0rdan S., Thursday, 1 May 2008 17:27 (fifteen years ago) link

actually tampa bay's dome is worse

J0rdan S., Thursday, 1 May 2008 17:28 (fifteen years ago) link

safeco and new busch deserve to be in the top 5

Camden should totally be higher up on the food list!

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Thursday, 1 May 2008 17:39 (fifteen years ago) link

Progressive should be totally lower on the food list- except for their mustard. Overall it's pretty nice place to watch baseball but I have a hard time believing it's #1.

brownie, Thursday, 1 May 2008 17:59 (fifteen years ago) link

PNC is pretty awesome.

brownie, Thursday, 1 May 2008 18:02 (fifteen years ago) link

Glad to see my two favorites (PNC and Comerica) in the top 5. But I can't believe two of my least favorites (New Comiskey, Angels) rank so highly.

Of the 10 minor-league parks, I've only been to Tacoma.

lol @ o's 29 in team quality...

i don't understand how camden could have such high marks on everything EXCEPT atmosphere, though.

j.q higgins, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 14:38 (fifteen years ago) link

maybe cuz of all the visiting team's fans? (at least Bos/NY)

No wonder . . . it's the Gaslight District.

felicity, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 17:15 (fifteen years ago) link

It's called the Gaslamp District, but what is going on with that woman in the middle?

polyphonic, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 17:32 (fifteen years ago) link

my dog lives in san diego. i miss him a lot.

Their outfield scoreboard is exceptional, very informative.
