Great American Ballpark Review

[arenafanatic]

I finally finished the review took a little longer than expected.

Thanks for all the suggestions from this site.

Sadly the game I went to got rained out. Coming from San Antonio and only having one day in Cincy this was not good, but I still went to the game. Had club seats so I got my free food and walked around the stadium.

I have been to the ballpark many times before I started the site.

If you think I need to add something please let me know.

Thanks again! http://www.arenafanatic.com/great-am...nati-reds.html

Just checked out your review and website. Very cool. As a lifelong Reds fan who has never made it to the GABP, thanks for this. A solid, fairly comprehensive review and it's great to see all the photos of the various locations. One thing I found to be lacking is the mention of the rest room facilities at each stadium. Surely some places have ample facilities and some are lacking (heard Wrigley is a problem). It may sound crude, but it is a fairly important aspect of each venue. If you're gonna be thorough...this should be included.

I can mention the restroom situation in the review. I think most venues built in the 90's and beyond really caught on to the importance of access to restrooms and having enough in the stadium. From my experience at GABP I have not a problem with the restrooms.

I'd say the one place that I have seen a problem with the bathrooms is Hinkle Fieldhouse Butler. Those bathrooms will take you back in time. They are renovating the Fieldhouse so I'm sure this will be addressed or has been since my visit.

This is a really good review. Great job! Having grown up with Riverfront Stadium, I was partial to it, even though it was one of those artificial turf cookie cutter stadiums. Still, I loved GABP when I first went there in 2004, and I still think it is one of the nicer stadiums in the league. I cannot wait to get back (now that I'm out of state). Thanks for the review.

Thanks for reading! We all have some odd thing we liked about Riverfront. Even though it makes no sense and looked horrible, the different color seats for each level of seating was my weird thing for the stadium. Maybe, because it was easy to say what seats you had.

Nice job. One thing I'd like to point so that no one is led astray: the Horseshoe Casino does not have a hotel. This was a big part of their agreement with the city. Because the local hotels did not want to lose business, they insisted on a "partner hotel" system where Horseshoe would direct guests to established local hotels.

Thanks for that tip. I'll make the edit!
