Good old Memorial Stadium! Actually, I'd much rather be at Camden, but I enjoyed my visits to Memorial anyway. Wish I had some to add, but I usually don't bring a camera to the ballpark. I was at Tropicana Field last month - not bad for an indoor yard.
I should try and dig up my old photos of the "real" US Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, way back when.

Chris, you've been to Wrigley. You've been to Fenway. You've been to Turner. But you haven't been to Yankee Stadium! Whats wrong with you? ;-)
I'll dig up some of my pics where I went to Yankee Stadium and to Cinergy Field in Cincinnatti.

Nice shots Chris!
Camden Yards is really a great ball park and you have some foaming not too far away.
Cheers

Had season tickets for the first two years at Camden Yards, still got the ticket from the first opening day there.
Being a truck driver had it's advantages, like being able to make the most of your down time, or just finding a few minutes here and there to check out the sites.
A trip to Charlotte Speedway lead me to discover that Hendricks shop was just down the street, so off I went. Got lucky and got a photo of one Jeff's cars as it was being driven down from another shop, as it passed by my semi. Still one of my favorite shots, but too big to post here.
Very cool indeed...except the losing part :-(

Does track and field or cross country count as a sport? If so, I'll try to dig up a few pictures from the last two years. Otherwise, don't have any of myself. I haven't been to may sporting events recently besides New York Yankees baseball (D or 4 train there, 4 train back: it's a real experience that no one should miss when going to a game) and I haven't taken any pictures recently.

I took the train from Aminia, NY to New York when I went to the stadium a couple years back.
I'll never forget that game. Yanks and Red Sox were tied at 7 in the bottom of the ninth and the Yanks had the Bases loaded. Jorge Posada was the batter, Uegeth Urbina was the pitcher.
Posada walked.

How about us playing a sport?
About a year ago. I think I Doubled in this at-bat. BTW, I played in my league all-star game tonight. We lost 2-1. (Just thought someone might be interested ;-))

Heading to the All Star game for my Babe Ruth League an Saturday night. I was one-for-one.

Nice pics Chris, I'm so jealous that you've been to Fenway! Boston's only an hour and a half (if that) flight from where I live, I must get down to see a game!
Here are some of my pics (be warned, they're mostly hockey :-) )
1: An NHL exhibition pre-season game between the Boston Bruins and the Pittsburgh Penguins last year played at the Halifax Metro Centre.
2: Toronto Maple Leafs game-day practice at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto.
3: Later that night, versus the Ottawa Senators, a nice fight broke out. I was quite pumped to see my favorite player (Tie Domi) drop the gloves. Too bad that guy had to stand up just as I took a photo!
4: As usual, the Leafs were victorious against the lowly Senators ;-)
5: Team Canada and Team Czech Republic warm-up before their game at the 2002 World Junior Hockey Championships at the Halifax Metro Centre (a big deal in Canada!....it's being held in the US this year).
6: A view from a cheap seat at the SkyDome as the Blue Jays take on the Devil Rays (they lost :-( )
7: To try and tie this up up and relate it to trains: after the Blue Jays game, the crowd makes it way to Union Station to catch GO Trains or TTC Subways home.
Hope you enjoyed this (Canadian) look at sports, not a NASCAR in sight :P
