Yale Stadium Hartford CT. - The Yale Bowl Jets vs Giants season 1974. Jets won in OT on Joe Namath TD pass. First regular season NFL OT game. My Dad took me and my maternal grandfather. We rode the Amtrak train from Newark to New Haven.
I was 11 years old.
JFK Stadium Philly - 1974 World Football League game. Philadelphia Bells vs New York Stars. Stadium old and decrepit. Maybe 4,000 fans. Fights and fires in the stadium. My Dad and I left early.
Veterans Stadium Philly - 1971 First baseball game. Pirates vs Phillies. Dock Ellis pitched, Roberto Clemente on RF, Wille Stargell in LF, Bill Mazeroski at 2nd base and he hit a homer. Pirates won 11-9
I was at this stadium at least 30 times.
Arrowhead KC - for my 50th birthday did a bucket list event. Sat in front row on Chiefs 25 yard line next to replay booth. Chiefs beat Giants 31-7
2nd time I went w GBlowfish and sat front row 50 yard line for Chiefs vs Broncos on Christmas Eve. We won again. I'm 2-0 at Arrowhead.
PNC Park Pittsburgh. - About 5 times. As Pirates fan I think it is one of the best stadium in baseball. Food, location, amenities, comfort.
Shea Stadium and original Yankee Stadium New York - once for each as a kid. Hated both teams and went to Shea w best friend who is a fan and Yankee Stadium with my little league team. Teenager both times
Meadowlands Stadium New Jersey - Stadium sucks and three times there. Once for Giants, once for Jets vs KC in Dennis Byrd paralyzed game and 1st time was for my high school teams state finals.
Brendan Byrne Arena Nets Meadowlands - Nets vs Bullets as a young teen.
Verizon Arena Wash DC - Wizards and Capitals games
Nationals Stadium DC - only when Pirates came to town.
Spectrum Philly- Sixers game once
Madison Square Garden - NY City - Knicks and Rangers games vs Bullets and Blackhawks.
Nassau Coliseum Long Island - Islanders game I got free tickets to. Drive there sucked so bad.
Candlestick Park San Fran - was on top of Giants dugout. Giants vs Cardinals. Bonds played and Dave Parker was hitting coach for St Louis.
Oracle Park San Fran - A top notch baseball stadium w fantastic food and incredible views downtown in SF. I was there the first year it opened with a season ticket holder right at Club Level. I was there a few more times.
Oakland Alameda Stadium - I was there around 1997 or 1998 with a high school buddy from NJ who moved to Dublin CA to watch the A's. The stadium was a complete shothole back then and a tiny crowd.
Shark Tank San Jose - several times to watch Sharks games while living in Mountain View. Easy quick ride on Cal Train from Mtn View right to San Jose. Seats very uncomfortable and super tight on knees.
MCG Melbourne Cricket Grounds Australia - 3 day Cricket test match. Most ****ed up shit. 100,000 seat stadium and just 40 people there for first day of test match. No clue how cricket works.
Rodgers Arena and Rodgers Stadium Toronto - went to games for Raptors vs Wizards and Blue Jays vs someone I can't recall. Pretty decent stadiums.
Palafiera Stadium Forli Italy - basketball team with Darryl Dawkins.
Camden Yards Baltimore - my favorite baseball stadium outside of PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Been there at least 10 times. Located 3 blocks from the Wire neighborhood. Wrong turn leaving stadium likely to result in carjacking.
Fenway Park - bucket list item back in the 90's. Just a cool place to watch a game.
I think I have passed on going to more stadiums than I have attended. Seattle Kingdome, Cincinnati Reds, Detroit Tigers, Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins, AZ Cardinals and AZ Diamondbacks, Houston Astros at Astrodome, Saints at Superdome, Minnesota Twins, Chicago Bears and Chicago Cubs.
I will likely be watching the Raiders Chiefs game this season in Las Vegas w my buddy Phil.
