re: Nicest Stadium You Have Ever Been To

I'm a sucker for Bowl Stadiums and I also enjoy stadiums that bring the game experience close to the fan. So I actually have 2.

1) Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto is by far the coolest stadium I've been too. It's small, I think seats around 50K. But it's new and it's double decked all around the field. It brings the 50K of fans very close to the field wherever you sit in the stadium. Because it is new its open air with plenty of restrooms.

2) California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley California. This is Traditional Bowl Stadium built in 1923 and seats about 71K of fans. I like it because it is not too big. Even if you are up on the last row you have a good seats anywhere in the stadium. The stadium is now receiving a much needed renovation. One really cool thing to do is to go up to the top row on the west side of the stadium and look over the top to view a great view of the entire San Francisco Bay Area. The stadium also has no lights. So for games on TV that go late they have to set up temporary lighting.

*Tiger stadium would be my choice if it had no upper decks. I miss the Bowl look of Tiger Stadium. I think the new additions destroyed the classic look of the stadium.
