When the World Series Shook

The UFE Team studied the restrooms, facilities, vendors, and fans, using over 79 different criteria and they rated all 30 Major League Baseball parks. Of all 30 stadiums, the best rating belonged to Busch Stadium in St. Louis. The stadium with the worst rating was Wrigley Field in Chicago.
