      Thanks, man! I agree that it’s completely underrated. It had a great feel and atmosphere to it. Also, best fans in the MLB that I’ve come across thus far. I loved the passion for the team. I’d love to go back and cheer for the Sox.

      Underrated?! It’s universally considered one of the worst in MLB, maybe just after Oakland. I haven’t been there since probably the late 90s, but at least then, it was like the most impersonal experience of watching baseball. They had to reduce seating capacity by thousands to make it less of a giant billboard filled corporate behemoth of a place. They’ve kind of done the opposite with Wrigley, which is sad.

      @@MattSezer that's why they're saying it's UNDER RATED. because it's always viewed as one of the worst. i get it's not as personal as Wrigley, but I don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. I think it's a nice stadium. If they ever integrate the neighborhood with it rather than keeping it isolated from the city than it would be awesome.

    I was lucky enough to visit old Comiskey during it's last days. At the time it was unique for me that they let fans walk on the field, something they NEVER allowed at my home field, Fenway. Another thrill, Carlton Fisk came out to greet fans. He literally seemed like a giant. My gf at the time knew nothing about baseball and commented how handsome he was.

    The cool thing about Sox park I is it's always strong ties to Bridgeport a real blue collar chicago neighborhood with blood line that runs deep, when people from all over the chicagoland area come to the games either driving off the interstate, or coming off the redline, most of them have no clue they're like a couple blocks away from one of the most interesting neighborhoods in America with tons of history, their loss for not checking it out.

    The only way they allow you to float between all the levels is if you have a Club Level(300 level) ticket. It's a lot of stadium to cover in just one game honestly and that's coming from a lifelong White Sox fan that has actually worked there for several years. It's a great environment and I'm glad you enjoyed your visit. You should get a seat in Club or the Picnic area along the right field fence one day.

    Writing this before watching the video.
    I’m gonna be honest with you. I’m a diehard White Sox and Packers fan, and lifelong stadiums enthusiast. Watched your videos on Lambeau (nice job btw), Wrigley, Miller Park, and the Great American Ballpark. All of which I’ve been to.
    As a White Sox fan, I fully acknowledge that no, we do not have the very best ballpark. However, I don’t believe for a second that we have the worst. Despite this I quite regularly find it rated at the very bottom of people’s ranking videos and lists, sometimes rated even lower the Rogers Centre, Tropicana or the Coliseum. Even if you put us at #27 out of 30 on that list. I think there’s still a massive gap in quality between us and those parks. And people who give us crap saying our park is dull and boring and the upper deck is to high, usually have no clue what it was like before the renovations. When the concourses were bare white, the upper deck was 10 rows higher and so much more we didn’t have yet.
    I just hope you gave us a fair shot. Respect man

    3:13 this actually has more to do with the 1991 surroundings of the stadium than their current surroundings. In 1991, across the highway there was a mile stretch of notorious high-rise public housing projects that have since been torn down and partially replaced. Stateway Gardens were right across the highway, with the Robert Taylor Homes adjacent to that.

In my opinion they should have faced the stadium up to downtown not the projects but to my understanding the point was since it is the southsides team they faced it south.

    As a White Sox fan, I appreciate this good review of Guaranteed Rate Field. This place had been so maligned since it opened, with Camden Yards in Baltimore opening in 1992, and the constant comparisons to Wrigley Field. It weighs us Sox fans down when you'd hear over and over again how "bad" the place is. Well as you saw for yourself, the home of the White Sox is a great place for baseball. Yeah...Wrigley Field is more popular. That place is marketed more as a tourist attraction. But Guaranteed Rate Field is a great place to watch a ball game.

      @@SACSportsAdventures They would have to do something like they did at Lambeau Field for the Packers, where they built a surrounding structure which would greatly increase the width of the food concourses. Then, they would have had to go upward from that structure to build a 3rd deck above the existing 2nd deck (which was the top deck). Not sure if a new 3rd deck would be the luxury boxes, or if they’d have made part of the 2nd into the boxes and had the new 3rd just new cheap seats.
      But you’re right, it would have been a major project, and perhaps not worth the money.
      I lived in suburban Chicago in the late 80’s and early 90’s when New Comiskey was built. First time I went there, me and my kids were in the top deck way out by the LF foul pole. I nearly got vertigo, it was so high and steep. Sometime in the early ‘00’s, they removed the top 7-10 rows (I don’t remember exactly how many), and put a different, larger roof on which made it feel a bit more comfortable and more “basebally”. Before that renovation, the top rows felt more like Shea Stadium, or even a big football stadium.
