FT "Classic Ballpark" get-together in 2001?

I was in Tropicana Field on Monday night - my first major league game since the strike (I went on strike against MLB - I've been to dozens of minor league games since).

Anyhow, the topic came up about putting together a "classic ballparks" vacation.

For example: Fenway, Yankee Stadium, Wrigley, Jacobs Field, Camden Yard ...

Organizing this thing is impossible for one person, so I was thinking along the lines of having a host for each city (ie: one person coordinates Wrigley, another does Fenway).

We could either try it over the course of a week (which I think would be a LOT of fun), or various dates during the season.

Would be curious who would be interested and/or their nominations for ballparks.

Fenway, Yankee Stadium and Wrigley are automatics in my mind.

Jacobs Field, Camden Yards, Arlington and Enron are also high on my list.

I'd also include Tropicana in Tampa - not much of a stadium, but I've got an "in", and we could have a great time in the billiard room, cigar room, etc.
