Myprimetime.com Presents Insider's
Guide to All 30 Major League Baseball Stadiums
Consult the "Wise Guide to
Ballparks" Before Heading Out to the Old Ball Game
SAN
FRANCISCO, Apr. 6, 2000 - Myprimetime.com, the definitive online resource
for baby boomers, will be helping baseball fans "play ball" this season
with a new Web site feature called the "Wise Guide to
Ballparks."
Providing an inside look at all 30 major league
baseball stadiums, myprimetime.com's Wise Guide to Ballparks is filled
with useful information about where to sit and which seats to avoid, what
to eat and drink (all hot dogs are not created equal!), and the
not-to-be-missed special features in each major league baseball
stadium.
"Every year, a few lucky people take a fantasy trip of a
lifetime, traveling the country to see
a game at every major league
baseball stadium," said W. Blake Gray, the myprimetime.com columnist
behind the Wise Guide to Ballparks feature. "For those who can't make it
to all 30 ballparks, our guide is the next best thing to being
there."
Gray, a confirmed baseball fanatic who has personally
visited almost every current major league ballpark (and many that are now
extinct), once attended more than 400 games in a five-year span.
"Myprimetime.com's Wise Guide to Ballparks provides a wealth of
information gleaned from my visits as well as the comments of locals," he
noted. "We want every baseball fan to have the best possible experience,
and these tips are provided in that spirit."
So where can you find
the best ballpark food? Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, FL, home of the
Tampa Bay Devil Rays, where Cuban cuisine reigns supreme. How about the
worst cheap seats
in a supposedly well-designed new stadium? The
Houston Astros' Enron Field, where the top row of the upper deck is level
with the stadium lights. The biggest bargain? Dodgers Stadium in Los
Angeles, where field box seats go for a mere $17 (and are often available
on game day).
In addition to providing background information on
each of the 30 major league baseball stadiums, myprimetime.com's Wise
Guide to Ballparks also offers links to official team and fan sites, where
you can take virtual stadium tours, purchase tickets and souvenirs, and
even find out how the team's best closer is faring.
"This was a
labor of love for Blake," said myprimetime.com Co-Founder, Vice President
and Editorial Director Donald Van de Mark. "If you don't go to games
regularly - and even if you
do - you probably don't know all this
stuff. We're happy to be able to add value to the experience of
participating in America's favorite pastime."
