Been:
Fulton County (don't really remember much, I was 7)
Turner Field
Wrigley
Miller Park
Camden Yards
Nationals Park
Coors Field
Favorite:
1. Miller Park - Roof was open. Awesome looking stadium from the outside. You can see it from miles away. Good atmosphere. Really cool design overall. Fans gave me a ton of poo for being an opposing fan (braves).
2. Camden Yards - Really cool stadium. Bars and food within the park are very good. Excellent view of downtown. Fans were very polite. Orioles suck, so there was not many people there and no excitement.
Want to go to:
AT&T Park
PNC Park
Fenway (fug boston and the red sox, but it's too historic to not want to go)
Petco Park
Never want to go to:
Rogers Center
Sun Life Stadium (fka Pro Player Stadium, Dolphins Stadium, Land Shark Stadium)

U.S. Cell
Wrigley
Miller Park
1) The Cell
2) Miller Park
3) Wrigley
Love The Cell, though that is obvious.
Miller is just an amazing park, great field and seating, amazing food, just overall great atmosphere.
*Fun fact - I played at the mini Miller Park outside of the stadium.*
I love and hate Wrigley. I love it because it is a beautiful place to watch a ballgame, but I hate it because it is so damn old.
Want to go:
Every other park

Turner Field
Citizen's Bank Park
The old Veteran's Stadium
Coors Field
I need to get out and see more parks
I liked all of them about the same for different personal reasons. All three are great parks.
Really want to see AT&T park in San Fran, the say that is the best.
Never want to go:
I honestly wouldn't turn a trip to any ball park down, but the Rays and Marlins stadiums might make me want to throw myself off the upper level.

Citizen's Bank Park
Veterans Stadium
Oriole Park at Camden Yards
Nationals Park
Shea Stadium
New Yankee Stadium
CBP is the best. Of course, I have been to many games there, including 2 World Series games and it is the easiest for me to get to (20 min drive).
We had bleacher seats at Yankee Stadium this past June vs the Phillies. Got a lot of poo out there with that NY scum.
Went to Nationals Park 8/1 to see Strasburg (he was injured though) but still had a great time. So many Phillies fans were there. Worst part was the 4 hour ride in traffic home.
Shea Stadium was awesome. The Met fans weren't really even that bad. Yankee fans were animals. We had civil conversations with the Met fans which kind of surprised me.
Oriole Park I have been to a few times, never seen the Phillies play there though. Went back in the day during Ripken's streak (don't remember which game) and got free tickets last September and went down. It was pretty sad because there was no one there.
I also saw the Phils take on the Braves at Champion Stadium in Disney World this past spring training.
I would like to go to Citi Field, Fenway Park and PETCO.

Miller Park
Busch Stadium (old and new)
AT&T Park
Petco
Dodgers Stadium
Turner Field
Camden Yards
Old HH Humphreydome
I think I might have been to a few others that are currently escaping my old brain.
My favorite is Miller Park and Busch stadium. Beautiful, great food, ample parking, a good family experience. I don't like the Brewers or Cards, but they got the stadiums right.
My least favorite is the home of my beloved Cub. Yeah, it is historic, and looks beautiful, but the amenities suck, the parking sucks, the food blows...it feels its age when it comes to the extras.

Yeah, I always hated having to wade through 3 inches of urine to use the bathroom.

Sitting up on the terrace on a hot summer's day enjoying a hot dog and a cold beer overlooking the bay is a great baseball experience.
Much better then a room temp beer overlooking Oakland's industrial sector while at a A's game.

AT&T park is amazing, I converted from a A's fan to a Giants fan because of that park.
