For me: Georgia Dome, Memorial Stadium, Municipal Stadium, Pitt Stadium, Riverfront Stadium, Three Rivers Stadium, Veterans Stadium, and Yankees Stadium.

I wish I had made it to Tigers Stadium and Shea Stadium having watched so many games on TV on WOR. No one took me to Forbes Field :-(

Connie Mack, the Vet many times and Memorial many times. Been to Fenway but it’s still going
Connie Mack died fifty years ago. If I may suggest this book, To Every Thing a Season: Shibe Park and Urban Philadelphia. It’s a sociology book at heart but a fascinating story.

Veterans Stadium and that's it. It was in the mid 80s, I was in the upper level and I remember watching a guy throw a Cowboys fan down the steps. That's the last time I've ever been to an NFL game. I've never been to the Linc. While I love the Eagles, Go Birds, I prefer Saturdays in Happy Valley to Sundays in South Philly.

I am pretty sure Byrd is still there, expanded, with a name change.

I saw the Stones at the Vet. Rush at the Spectrum, is that still sitting there?

Tropicana Fields days are numbered. Milton took off the roof and since they only have 2 years left no one wants to pay for the repairs.

Both the Vet and the Spectrum are no longer existing.

Baseball: Cooper Stadium (AAA--Columbus), Connie Mack, the Vet, Riverfront, Three Rivers. While Anaheim Stadium is still there, the changers are such that it's almost a new stadium (I saw it in its football configuration, though it was a baseball game I went to). Add to that Pitt Stadium for football. Other sports--soccer--Rheinstadion in Duesseldorf, Bokelberg in Moenchengladbach, Muengersdorf in Cologne, Volkspark in Hamburg. Hockey--the Civic Arena, the Spectrum (also basketball), Philadelphia Convention Hall (Firebirds), Cherry Hill Arena (original Jersey Devils). The single A stadium where the Charlotte Rangers (FSL) played too.
