Tiger Stadium

Description

Das Tiger Stadium war ein Baseballstadion in der US-amerikanischen Stadt Detroit im Bundesstaat Michigan. Das im Jahr 1912 eröffnete Stadion war die Heimat der MLB-Baseballmannschaft Detroit Tigers, die heute im Comerica Park ihre Heimspiele austrägt. Ebenso spielte hier die NFL-Footballmannschaft Detroit Lions, die nun im Ford Field spielen. Es wurde 1989 in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen. Seinen Spitznamen „The Corner“ trägt das Stadion wegen seiner Lage an der Kreuzung der Michigan Avenue und Trumbull Avenue. Nach dem Umzug der Baseballmannschaft in den Comerica Park gab es mehrere gescheiterte Versuche zum Erhalt des Stadions, so dass es schließlich am 21. September 2009 abgerissen wurde. Das eigentliche Spielfeld blieb aber erhalten und wird heute noch von den Fans genutzt.Im Frühjahr 2011 gab die Detroit Free Press bekannt, dass freiwillige Helfer der Motor City Blight Busters das Spielfeld wieder bespielbar gemacht haben.GeschichteDie AnfängeIm Jahr 1895 wurde vom Eigentümer der Detroit Tigers, George Vanderbeck, ein neues Baseballstadion an der Kreuzung der Michigan und Trumbull Avenue gebaut. Das Stadion bekam den Namen Bennett Park (benannt nach Charlie Bennett, nicht zu verwechseln mit dem gleichnamigen Park in New York). Es bestand hauptsächlich aus einer überdachten Holztribüne und unüberdachten Sitzplätzen.

Absolutely wonderful stadium!! We came here for the first time this past weekend to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and it was absolutely wonderful! VERY clean, very good security, comfortable seating, very easy to find sections for seating too. Super friendly staff at all the food stands and nice fresh tasty food. By far one of the best stadiums I've been to! The concert was well put together and went wonderfully. The security check before entering was smooth and very fast and friendly. Even very easy to find parking areas all over by the stadium as well! All in all a really great experience. Highly recommend attending a concert or ball game here!
I have no complaints. I do, however, have a confession ‍. I'm not a huge baseball fan. This was my first major league baseball game. We were invited by friends so we weren't going to turn the opportunity down. I felt like the stadium was very nice, clean and a lot of food and drink options. Obviously not without draining your pockets, but that is expected at any sports venue.
Not impressed with the Kiosk system. People INSIDE were Great- people At Ticket windows, rude as can be, AS IF they're Doing You a favor getting paid to sell or accept tickets. Poor setting for concert- concrete baseball bleachers. Prices are Disgusting- 8.95 for a Hot Dog on rollers. 8$ for a 16oz water. ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING AREA. Not enough restrooms, vendors, nada. We went. We enjoyed the show- from damn near the furthest row away from the stage. No Regular beer, All Craft or Light. We agreed, we don't care to go back. It was an experience we'd never had, and, neither care to go a second time. Not even for a ball game.
Great stadium for a ball game! We sat in the 3rd row behind the opponent's bullpen during our most recent visit. We've sat in many locations at Comerica and this was one of my most favorite. I would love closer if there is an option. I would not sit in the upper deck if I could avoid it!
Enjoyed the game last night. Tigers were able to pull out a win and beat Kansas City. I was invited by a friend who had suite tickets which made the event even more memorable. The attendee was attentive and the ensuite food was tasty. Unlimited drinks and snacks. Comerica Park rather in a suite or standard seats is an amazing venue. Always well maintained, great areas for pictures as well. All seats are pretty good and not too tight. The food court is nice as well. Plenty of options. The Official Tiger at the main entrance is always a huge hit with fans and visitors.
A beautiful stadium to watch a ball game. Lots of room to move around and enjoy the event. Unfortunately when I asked about gluten free items the staff did not understand what that meant. I tried to explain but still did not go very far. Use caution when eating or drinking here. Otherwise a nice venue.
I am a huge fan of the Detroit Tigers and baseball in general. Each time I come to Comerica Park I leave with everlasting memories. The prices of food and drinks is a little high but coming to a game is the best experience ever. Come out to a game and support your Tigers!
One of the better ballparks we've visited. Great location, easy entrance and exit, views are excellent. I expected more of the food court and more ballparks have delivery to seat options. All told a great experience that we don't regret.
Just beautiful ..what can I say. Detroit is one of the best city's, and it's easy to see why. So many things to do, with beautiful sports arena's to do some in. It was a perfect night for a baseball game...and of course the Tiger's won...12-4
This venue has a history of issues with tickets being double sold, we waited in line, got through security, they went to scan our tickets and the bar code wouldn’t load. I had these tickets for 2 years. We were told we have to go to customer service. So we do and they print them. It happened to everyone who bought them originally, but the email specifically said the tickets are electronic. It said nothing about will call. It was a huge waste of time and caused us to miss the first band partially which sucked. Plus it was beyond hot outside. So then we have to get back in line and go back through security and get to the opposite side of the stadium in a massive crowd. They really need an area that’s just a walkway without vendors so that people can get to their seats bc it’s honestly dangerous. Also, there is no shade in the upper decks and you would think with how much money the stadium brings in that they would put fans at the top of each section or something. That heat is dangerous and the walking vendors never have water, which is not their fault they just sell out of it in minutes and only have beer. The concert was amazing but the venue needs work. I had been there for baseball games before but this was way more out of hand.
