Dodger Stadium

Home of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Dodger Stadium is an excellent place to go watch a baseball. Well-equipped with the best possible technology available, this place is a sight to see. Grab a Dodger Dog and get ready to see some fun action!

Yankee Stadium

It’s worth it to see the Yankees play just for their exceptional history and countless World Series titles. But even if that weren’t the case, Yankee Stadium happens to be a great place to see a game, because of its state-of-the-art facilities and beautiful aesthetic.

Fenway Park

There are some baseball stadiums that are known for certain iconic features, and Fenway Park is one of them. Home to the Boston Red Sox, Fenway is known for its “Green Monster”, a massive wall that goes along left field. It’s not particularly far, but it’s sure high and hard to hit over.

The West Coast is one of our favorite spots for a baseball pilgrimage, and if you’re looking to ballpark hop in 2021, head to these three stadiums.

Dodger Stadium: Los Angeles, CA

The home of the 2020 World Series champions, Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles’s Chavez Ravine is one of the best places to take in a ballgame anywhere. You’ll marvel at the 1960s-era architecture and palm trees lining the exterior of the park as you watch one of MLB’s best teams.

T-Mobile Park: Seattle, WA

If you love skylines and a guaranteed nice environment for a game, T-Mobile Park in Seattle is a great option for you. While the product on the field hasn’t always been great, the park’s retractable roof, views of the city’s skyline, and stellar food and drink options make it an enjoyable outing no matter what.

AT&T Park: San Francisco, CA

Ever since its inauguration in the early 2000s, AT&T Park in San Francisco has been one of the best stadiums in the Major Leagues. Known for its McCovey Cove, a short right-field porch that often results in home runs being hit into the San Francisco Bay, it’s a delightful place to experience baseball.

Basketball

Basketball was invented in 1891 by a Canadian physical education teacher named James Naismith. Fifty years later, professional basketball was already underway. Boston and Los Angeles have by far the richest tradition with basketball, given that their respective home teams, the Celtics and Lakers, are tied for most championships with 17.

Football

Football is arguably the most popular sport in the United States, which is why the Super Bowl is one of the biggest and most expensive events of the year. Interestingly enough, one of the most popular football cities is the small town of Green Bay, home to the legendary Packers. Although New England doesn’t have such a deep history, Tom Brady’s success with the Patriots made them a football staple for years to come.

Baseball

Baseball was founded in 1869, and to this day it’s considered an American pastime. As far as American history, baseball is about as classic as it gets, with traditions that include peanuts, cracker jacks, and the seventh-inning stretch. New York is by far the biggest baseball city in the world, given that it’s home to the Yankees, a team with 27 World Series victories.

Foodies who like baseball will find no shortage of parks to visit to try some of baseball’s most iconic snacks. Here are some of the highlights you can find around the league.

Dodger Dog: Dodger Stadium

Dodger Stadium is the home of the Dodger Dog, one of the most famous concession items in all of America. This 10-inch pork sausage served in a steamed bun is usually topped with ketchup, mustard, relish, and chopped onions and represents the most typical of baseball foods.

Toasted Grasshoppers: T-Mobile Park

Are you looking for something a little more out-of-the-box? The toasted grasshoppers served at the Seattle Mariners’ home stadium will run you only $5 and give you a crunchy, protein-filled snack that’s delicious if you aren’t too scared to try it. Seasoned with chili and lime, you’ll be surprised at how good this adaptation of a Mexican street food is.

Crabfries: Citizens Bank Park

French fry lovers who want to try some of America’s best should make time to go to a Phillies game if they’re ever in Philadelphia. Here, Chickie and Pete’s serves up “Crabfries,” a delicious bucket of seasoned fries that are served with white cheddar dipping sauce in an irresistible combination.

Located in New York, New York and home to the New York Yankees and the future home of the New York City FC of MLS, the stadium is one of the newer ones.

You’ll see banners of Yankee stars and LED screens. At Gate 6 you can check out Yankee memorabilia and highlights of Yankee moments.

AT&T Stadium, NFL

Home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, and opened in 2009, the stadium’s best feature is the HD television screen which was the largest in the world when the stadium opened. The Party Press section allows standing room for 25,000 people and there are 80,0000 seats in the stadium. There are also 3,000 LCD TV screens, so you’ll never miss any of the action.

Nationals Park, Washington D.C.

No matter their age, children will enjoy running the bases on Sundays, Fireworks Fridays, and the free giveways all season long.

Children under 10 will like the PenFed Kids Fun Zone which has a virtual reality game where they experience hitting a home run.

Oracle Park, San Francisco, CA

Fans 14 and under will enjoy the Fan Lot which is a free interactive play area where they can slide into home plate from one of the four slides inside a giant wooden contour bottle, sit in the world’s largest vintage-style baseball glove, hit softballs, and run the bases inside Little Giants Park.

Globe Life Park, Arlington, TX

Head to the air-conditioned Kid’s Zone, which has a baseball bay slide, interactive games, Vandergriff Plaza’s Wiffle Ball field, pitching games, and tee-ball cages. The Ranger’s Captain (the mascot) even stops by to sign autographs during the 5th inning.

Tropicana Field, St. Petersburg, FL

Make sure you check out Gram Slam Alley which has arcade games, video batting cages, a speed pitch machine, a make-your-own baseball card booth, and a crafting station for making signs to hold during the game.
