2009 | Best Place to Meet Single Men

"But I hate sports!" is what you are saying right about now. You may scoff at going to Minute Park looking for single men because you don't exactly dig on baseball. But there really is nothing to being an Astros fan. Games can be as good as movies, with moments of tears, laughter, utter infatuation, crazy wardrobe changes and hilarious misunderstandings -- like when Cecil Cooper doesn't pull a pitcher out of an inning even though he's given up seven runs. There are men galore walking... More »
2009 | Best Cheap Seats

There's a certain kind of shock that comes when you luck into a friend's great Astros ticket and you look at the price. Fifty bucks For a single night at the ballpark But the truth is, you can have yourself a great night at Minute Maid Park and not put much of a dent in your pocket at all. (We do advise filling up before the game, though; some tickets are cheap, but hot dogs and drinks are another story.) There's always a slew of great offers on the team's Web site: Maybe it's buy an adult... More »
2003 | Best New Stadium

Forget about the stupid corporate name and that god-awful choo-choo train in left field. The best new stadium in Houston is the oldest new stadium in Houston: Minute Maid Park, a.k.a. the Juice Box, Home Run Field and Sponsorship Stadium. Minute Maid wins simply because it offers the best, and most interactive, fan experience in Houston: Sit in the Crawford Boxes and catch pop fly home runs. Sit in the field boxes and interfere with a ball in play. Our favorite seats are in right field on... More »
2002 | Best Polling Place

God bless that American tradition of elections -- those august times when the populace flows into frayed schoolhouse hallways or churches or even humble homes or garages to exercise their voting rights. But the downtown crowd, at least the Republicans, got a better deal on this democratic notion in the party primaries. While the lesser Democrats of the same precincts were packing into the Knights of Columbus Hall, the GOP (as in Grand Ol' Park) was granted access to the airy delights of... More »

Is Minute Maid Park (Finally) Going to Lose Tal's Hill?

By Richard Connelly | Tue, May 22, 2012

There were basically two people who loved Tal's Hill, the gimmicky hill in Minute Maid Park's centerfield, and one of them was named Tal. The other was former owner Drayton McLane, who installed the ... More »

Just to sit in a cheap seat and get creative is enjoyable to me at an Astros game. Come up and visit me in the 400's often!

It's one of the few places where my mother, father and grandparents get to come watch me play. It's a tremendous place to watch a ball game. The indoor/outdoor retractable roof saves you from rain so you don't have to worry about that. It's also another offensive ballpark -- if the guys come out swinging the bats, it's a fun place to watch a game.
