I wish to go back in time and see a game at clevel and municipal, Polo Grounds, Shibe Park, Fulton County Stadium of the Braves, Sportsman’s Park. Now we have like Jacobs Field in Cleveland. (Or Progressive Field!) I wish to see Metropolitian Stadium and more! Or Griffith Stadium. Or Comiskey Park and more. I also wish to see a game at the astrodome in Houston. The first indoor arena! For the Astros. Man, I do also miss Candlestick Park on the Giants.

I went to Griffith stadium with my uncle, dad,cousin and brother . Saw Harmon Killebrew when he first came to majors. Calvin Griffith moved the team just when they were getting great players. The Minnesota twins of the 60's and 70's will always be the Washington Senators to me.

I saw hundreds of games at the Old Comiskey Park as a kid growing up. There were even a couple of times when it was called White Sox Park; at the very beginning and then in the early 60's. Parking back then was $1 when I started going with my father, with reserved grandstand seats were $1.50. By the 1980's I was going much more often with friends as well as with my father. It was just a great old ball part and unfortunately I can't afford to go anymore. I've hear parking alone runs as much as $25 at the new park. My last season of regular attendance was 1991 when I purchased two seats for all weekend home games plus opening day, a total of 28 games. It became ridiculously expensive and I didn't renew in 1992.

My Dad grew up in Brooklyn and saw many games at Ebbets Field. I think he also saw some games at the Polo Grounds as well, even though he was strictly a Dodgers fan. I remember seeing some of these old ballparks on TV when my Mets played at them in the early 1970s, before the "Stadiums R Us" cookie-cutter design craze took over. (When Citi Field was built to replace Shea Stadium, it was supposed to be reminiscent of Ebbets Field. When my Dad and I went there for the first time, my Dad said to the ticket taker--whom he could tell was about his age--"This doesn't look like Ebbets Field at all!" To which the guy replied, "Ya got that right!" 🙂

Or to have one more chance to go back to the Metrodome and see one more game from the left-field seats.

It was a multiple purpose stadium.

Yet for me it was the site of my first MLB game in person.

The lights were so bright, the baseballs were all new and not recycled one's of Little Leagues of the 70's. The Big Red Machine was right there in September of 1976.

Rest in peace San Diego Stadium.

Part of the charm of the old parks is that they all existed PRIOR to the greed of the modern ERA... all of them were made useless because the owners and players got more greedy and needed the bigger cathedrals to the sport for more fans and more concession and anything else you can spend money on. That and they no longer tried to fit the park in the hole in the neighborhood.. the leveled the neighborhood and built them in their stead... I'm sad to say that the best parks all existed before my time... all that's left now, Wrigley and Fenway... and even they have been remodeled to the point that some of their charm is gone. (again.. GREED). Cities should make the teams own their own stadiums.. because lets face it.. if the Dodgers had still owned Ebbits , they would not have moved.. if the Giants owned the Polo Grounds.. they'd still be in NY. Same goes for other Pro-Teams in other pro-leagues..
