    Luckily, I've been able to hit most of the baseball stadiums I've wanted to see (Pac Bell, Camden, Fenway, Yankee, MMP, Wrigley, Dodger, the BOB, and even the home of the Durham Bulls), so most my "must see" stadiums are in other sports.

    I would, in a perverse, "I hate this team kind of way," love to see a game at Shea just because there's so much history there -- most of it infuriating.

    Also, I know this is a weird choice, but I have to see a game at the Metrodome just to see the "garbage bag"-style outfield wall (if they still have it).

    Here are the places I want to see a game at before I die:

    Cameron Indoor Stadium (Duke hoops)
    Notre Dame Stadium
    The Big House (Michigan football)
    Conseco Fieldhouse (Pacers hoops)
    Assembly Hall (Indiana hoops)
    Allen Fieldhouse (Kansas hoops)

    Honorable mention: Arco Arena (in a playoff game), The Pit, and Haas Pavilon (they expanded it after I graduated Cal)

    If I could go back in recent history (not including ancient places like the Polo Grounds), I'd love to see a game at:

    Busch Stadium
    Boston Garden
    Comiskey Park (the original)
    Tiger Stadium

    I actually almost made a road trip to Chicago just to see Comiskey, but my buddies and I wimped out.

    MSG
    Texas Stadium
    Reliant Stadium

    Notre Dame Stadium will be nice.

    I know this doesn't answer the question, but the most electric crowd I've ever been a part of was about six months ago at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (aka San Siro) in Milan, Italy. It was a match between AC Milan and Juventus. The stadium was filled to capacity at 85,700 and the crowd was just insane! :D

    I've been to Milan when I was in Europe during the 98' World Cup.. Milan is what us Americans would call 'Ghetto'

    Haha, why do you say that? Just curious, cause I lived there for four months last year.

    To me, Milan isn't ghetto at all. East St. Louis is ghetto. :)

    I've heard from friends that both are excellent places to see a baseball game, but the same friends told me they like Minute Maid better! :cool:
