24 Dec 1996: Portrait of Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia where the world champion Braves compete.

The best NY Mets roadtrip I made was to Atlanta's old Fulton County Stadium. I had Field Level seats and when I walked in wearing all my Mets Jersey glory the sounds made by the chopheads in the section was beautiful. The usher even asked me if I was sure I wanted to be there and I said Absofreakinglutely!

I went to Pittsburgh in 2003 to attend a conference and ended up at a game. The views along the shore of the Allegheny River are fantastic and the stadium is a gem with its view of the downtown skyline.

Rogers Centre Park/SkyDome

When I went to Toronto in July 2000 it was still SkyDome and boy was it impressive compared to the run of the mill US parks. Mets won 2 of 3.

Fenway Park

I attended 3 games in June 1998. It is an iconic venue but it definitely needed some upgrades. The fans and energy in the park were awesome.

I went to see "The Eighth Wonder of the World." in Sept. 1998. Always glad I made the trip before it was gone.

In April 1969 we drove to Montreal (Expos)and got in to see both Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver win. Nirvana. Jarry Park Stadium seated only 28,000.
