Great American Ballpark (Cincinnati, OH - 2003)

 
The field looked great.  I've learned the grass is actually natural grass with a synthetic carpet for extra durability.

After sitting there looking around the stadium for a minute I realized the seats we were sitting in were slightly padded.  I looked around and noticed the section to my left was also padded.  We couldn't tell about the rest of the stadium, but if they were all that way, I'm impressed.  I guess that's why the final price tag was around $290 million.
