I can't claim to be a baseball fan, but I AM a Camden Yards fan. I've gone on hot days, cold days, wet days, and everything in between, so I feel like I was due to write a review. I wish I could give 10 stars. Truly. I haven't been to that many baseball parks, but I can confidently say Oriole Park at Camden Yards is the best BY FAR. As soon as you near the park, you feel the energy of the city. Baltimore gets a bad rap, and yes, it's more obvious in some parts of the city, but that exists in any city. But when you walk up to Camden Yards, and you see how magnificent and well taken care of it is, you forget everything else and you just take it all in. THIS is America's favorite past time and this is WHY.
Security and ticketing is easy breezy, even on a busy day when there is a promotion and everyone wants in to get their free item. Speaking of, there are so many promotions! You can collect so many t-shirts, water bottles, baseball cards, and bobbleheads! Once you're inside the park, you'll notice how clean everything is. On a wet, rainy day, you'd think the ground would be gross and muddy. No. Dry, clean, and pristine. The food offerings is STELLAR. There is something for everyone. There is also several stands that just offer your regular baseball fare for a low price for those looking to spend less or just have a no-nonsense hot-dog or burger. But the best part about food, is that you can bring your own food INTO THE PARK. As long as you can fit it into a gallon zip lock, you can bring it in.
With all of that in mind, my favorite favorite part of being at Camden Yards is the people. I don't think I have encountered anyone who didn't enhance my experience. I have also brought many friends and family, and they all have had amazing experiences. Everything single staff member makes this park great. They are there to show you to your seat, and if it's wet from rain, they will wipe your seat before you sit down. You are greeted, told to have a good time, a good night, and I genuinely look forward to every interaction I have in the park. I can go on and on, but we would be here all day.
TLDR: 10/10 recommend.
