I totally agree with both of you. I'm a lifelong Orioles fan having grown-up going to see them at both Memorial Stadium and Camden Yards. The roughest crowds always seem to be when the Yankees are in town. Although I have met quite a few really cool Yankee fans at the games.
As for the minor leagues they are definitely more family friendly. Both in total cost of enjoying a game and the atmosphere. I live near Harrisburg and had the great joy of attending my first Senators game this spring. It was a wonderful experience. We sat right along the 3rd base line about 3 rows back (and these were the cheap seats). Great time was had by all and we all had plenty to eat and drink (beers included) for less than $30, for 3 adults and 2 kids.
