Pros: Infinite is its grace Cons: Null
In baseball there is divinity. Between the grace of the deep fly ball and the Edenic green of the infield grass, who could deny the existence of a higher power? The perfect geometry of baseball -- the number of innings, the 90 feet between bases, the...

Pros: Cubs Fans; Bleachers Cons: Cold Lake Breezes in April/May
It was former Cubs coach Don Zimmer who called Wrigley Field "The World's Largest Beer Garden." It is all that and so much more. It is baseball in it's purest form. Wrigley Field is devoid of many of the distractions that so many ballparks...

Wrigley Field in Chicago was the...

Pros: Great atmosphere, Sunny and warm in the bleachers, Classic Chicago experience, Old Style beer Cons: Bleacher creatures more focused on cocktail party than the game, Can't keep homerun balls hit by opposing team, Old Style beer
Ferris Bueller had it right. There is no bliss like a Friday afternoon spent in the bleachers at Wrigley, and playing hookey from work or school only adds to the enjoyment.
My perfect afternoon at Wrigley starts as I exit the el Station at...

Pros: The atmosphere and sense of history. Cons: Parking and having to watch the Cubbies play.
I have been to two games at Wrigley and there is no better place on earth to watch a ball game. Even if you don't like baseball Wrigley is still worth visiting. It has something most stadiums don't ambiance and a sense of history. This is what baseball...

Pros: baseball, the view, the food, the atmosphere Cons: Crowded, the calibre of play from the home team
If you are around Chicago in summer and have any interest at all in baseball Wrigley Field is a must see. From the carnival atmosphere outside the park to the dignified American classicism of the park itself Wrigley is a one of a kind experience. I...

Pros: Beautiful atmosphere, friendly/knowledgeable fans, great baseball Cons: Difficult to find parking
I am 37 yrs old and a lifelong baseball fan. I have had the opportunity to go to many ballparks new and old but nothing compares to sitting in the bleachers at Wrigley.
It starts with the ambiance outside the stadium. If you get their early...

Pros: Still baseball's best arena... Cons: ...but not on weekends or at night
Saying something bad about Wrigley Field is like setting fire to the U.S. Flag. It's like trashing apple pie, and saying you never really liked Mom anyway. But as a native Chicagoan, diehard Cubs fan, and someone who once shagged batting-practice fly...

Pros: Green grass, Ivy in the outfield, A chance to escape life's troubles for a while. Cons: Non-existent which means expensive parking, take the El.
The grass, the field, the ivy...
I could go on and on trying to describe the many individual things that make up one ball park. But it is more than just that, it is more than just a ball park, it is Wrigley Field. It is a testament to...

Pros: You feel like you are at a ballpark Cons: There aren't many more fields like it
For my 26 years of existence I have been a Chicago Cub fan. It is just a family tradition. A day at Wrigley Field is a day of fun regardless of whether or not the Cubs win. All these other ball fields have gone to a style that I think is not what a ball...

Pros: History, tradition, and a party atmosphere Cons: Parking, location of restrooms, some obstructed view seating.
Unlike some who have commented on Wrigley Field, I have visited only a handful of MLB parks. Wrigley is among those that I have been to. Now, I know that Cubs fans are loyal to a fault, and that's good considering the history involved here. But I have...

Pros: Hot chicks. Go there if you are a punk looking to score. Cons: God-awful baseball experience.
What could be worse than a game at Wrigley? Two games at Wrigley. Getting there stinks. Parking stinks. Sightlines blocked by poles and people standing 5 rows in front of you. 5 rows! Too shallow. Always somebody getting up in front of you and not enough ...

Pros: The ivy, fans, location and atmosphere make Wrigley Field great. Cons: There's shade in 3/4 of the park.
Besides the fact that we have the best fans, Wrigley Field is the best looking park with or without the green ivy. You can just picture yourself sitting there watching the game through rain, snow, day and night in the middle of thousands of faithful ...

Pros: Great old time baseball stadium Cons: Rough on the edges
So let me start off by saying I am a die hard Cardinals fan. It is programmed into me to hate all things Cubs. That being said, Wrigley Field is a gem. It is one of those places that just seeps baseball out of every corner of the building. The ...

Pros: Great Atmosphere Cons: Not really good food
Wrigley Field is one the oldest stadiums in Major League Baseball. At one point the Chicago Bears used to play football on Wrigley Field. Even thought Wrigley Field is old, it is still a great place to go watch a baseball game. The ...
