Fenway Park vs. Wrigley Field ... whatcha got? (1 Viewer)

[Workhorse]

Wrigley is more comfortable and a better experience for the casual fan than Fenway, for sure. But I voted Fenway: For die-hard baseball fans, you can't beat Fenway Park for the atmosphere. I'm a Sox fan though so I'm clearly biased.

I'll be at wrigley this Friday for the game. See you there. ?

Been to both. Fenway is better, but I enjoyed the area around Wrigley more.

This for me.

Have been to Wrigley 2x... once in the bleachers, and once in pretty much the best seats in the house (dugout box, aisle seat across from owners seats, up against the brick next to Cubs on deck circle).

Have been to Fenway countless times having sat in bleachers, RF Grandstands, 20ish rows behind home, Bud Roof Deck, etc. Have been on the field at Fenway during BP.

SEAT COMFORT: Wrigley

PARK ATMOSPHERE: Fenway (Visually more interesting park, more amenities, etc)

SEAT VIEWS (overall): Fenway*

PARK AMENITIES: Fenway (Rehab did wonders for the stadium without killing historical vibe)

SURROUNDING AREA: Wrigley (LOVE Yawkey but Wrigleyville has edge overall).

FAN BASE / CROWD VIBE: Fenway (Bleachers are FUN, but most cubs fans don't care too much about the game)

OVERALL PREFERENCE: Fenway

I'm obviously biased... but I genuinely prefer Fenway, teams aside. It's just a more interesting park with a much better gameday vibe if you're there for the game. If you're just looking for somewhere to get white-girl wasted on overpriced beers, bleachers at wrigley are the spot.

*Disclaimer: You have to dodge certain seats at Fenway (RF GS 3 thru 7 for example) and obscured seats (duh)... at fenway.

I've been to both

Sat next to Nolan Ryan last time I was at Fenway(players seats) Fenway was a great experience. But nothing picks my spirits up like walking out of the tunnel to see the green grass of Wrigley. (And then nothing kills me more than watching my cubbies suck the high hard one)
