Yet another survey of MLB venues has something to say about the Oakland Coliseum

Guess what? Raw sewage stinks.

And so does the most recent survey of major league baseball stadiums. Moneywise.com, piggy-backing on a Forbes report, published a ranking of MLB’s worst 30 venues, “taking into account design, amenities and the views.”

Survey says: The Oakland Coliseum ranks next to last, one rung above Tropicana Field in Tampa. Among other things, Moneywise.com knocks the Coliseum for its aging cookie-cutter design. That’s a gentle put-down; most critics cut straight to the Coliseum’s intermittent sewage backups.

Look, It’s no great trick to find rankings of MLB stadia in the great wide ether.
