| jturnhei's Full Review: Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome |
This is one ballpark for which I had high hopes. This is one of those stadiums where people specialize in wandering around. I think most of the people around me walked up and down the aisle at least 6 times -- in the middle of an inning always -- during the game. Multiply this by lots of seats accessible through few small aisles and you get the idea that the only way to get an uninterrupted view of the game is to get a front row seat.
A related phenomenon was the amount of attention paid to the game by the local fans -- almost none. Most of the people around me spent the game gossiping about whatever was going on -- and I wasn't sitting amidst a group of people from a reunion or anything. It was very odd.
The seats are comfortable, relatively, and the food selections are passable. Parking is a bit confusing -- lots of lots but hard to figure out which one to use.
A fond memory included: the couple in prom attire that went to the game before the prom -- too cute!!! -- and they actually WATCHED the game (of course, they could -- they were practically in the front row).
In general, somewhere in the middle of the pack.
