Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
This potentially invaluable guide for the well-traveled sports fan offers tours of the stadiums and arenas used by teams in the four major sports: football, baseball, basketball, and hockey. Each section includes a detailed diagram of the facility (color coded to indicate pricing), contact information for tickets, a subjective guide to good seats, access routes, and tips on stadium cuisine, nearby lodging, and local media outlets. Interestingly, there's no double-dipping here: for example, Boston Garden, home of the basketball Celtics and hockey Bruins, is covered twice, and the information--other than obvious similarities such as address and nearby parking facilities--is unique to each section. The text is also up to date. When profiling the baseball Padres and Jack Murphy Stadium, the authors advise that traffic congestion is a potential problem, but since the team is bad and doesn't draw, one has quick access to two interstates after the game. Readable, well-organized, and accurate, the book delivers what it promises. Wes Lukowsky

Essential and honest for travelers--act like a local,

This review is from: USA Today : The Complete Four Sport Stadium Guide (Paperback)
This book is an essential tool for sports travelers. This is an excellent guide for not only seating charts, but where to eat, sleep, and scalp tickets. It also gives information regarding radio broadcasts and brief team history. It is a great way to both act like a local and save yourself from getting ripped off by ticket scalpers outside the arena.
