Ballpark Rankings

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

As promised, below are my personal rankings of the baseball stadiums that I’ve visited.  Combining my love for baseball, travel, and architecture, I have either attended a game at or taken a tour of 25 out of 30 stadiums.  I have also created albums with pictures from each of the ballparks.  :)

For more stadium information check out www.ballparksofbaseball.com.  This is a really cool website that I recommend you view as well.  There’s also a facebook application called “Stadium Tour” with pictures of all stadiums, not just baseball stadiums.  It’s pretty cool because you can give each stadium a 1-through-10 ranking and leave comments.
