Pros: Beauty, Seating
Cons: Parking Situation
Summary: I went to this stadium last year on a free ticket that was awarded to me by my work company. I must confess I am not a big baseball/orioles fan. My heart has always been with Football and/or Basketball. I decided that even though I do not particulary ... read more

Pros: Atmosphere, Seating
Cons: Parking, Price
Summary: Attending a game at Oriole Park is an opportunity I wouldn't pass up! Famous among the locals for the high ticket prices. In this fan's opinion, it's all worth it. There really isn't a bad seat in the house. However I'd recommend staying out of the ... read more

Pros: good sight lines, great atmosphere for baseball
Cons: that there aren't more parks like it
Summary: Versatility, it was once the key to building a new stadium or arena. I mean imagine, throwing 200 million in to a facility that would only get prime use for one season of the year, it sounded like such a waste of money. Out of this way of thinking ... read more
