2. Fenway Park
Simply known for "The Green Monster", Fenway Park is the oldest and smallest Major League ballpark today. The history of the stadium itself was always second fiddle to Yankee Stadium in terms of nostalgia and history, but once Yankee Stadium was torn down, Fenway became the new iconic stadium. From The Green Monster, to the Citgo sign behind the Green Monster, to the John Hancock signature above the score board in Center field, to Pesky's Pole in right field, to Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline being sung in the 8th inning, Fenway is the kind of stadium you visit just to say you were there. There is no shortage to the history of Fenway stadium. |
