The Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, apparently one of baseball's finest, home of the Texas Rangers, sited in a park-like setting, next to Six Flags Over Texas, with a man-made lake between the stadium and Interstate 30 and a lush landscape of trees giving the Ballpark a much different look than more urban stadiums, such as the stadium formerly known as Enron Field in Houston, or Safeco Field in Seattle. |

The lakeside view of the Ballpark in Arlington. A jogging/rollerblading path runs besides the lake. |
|||
The Ballpark in Arlington has many food buying opportunities. The cuisine seems somewhat Texasified, as you can see in this view of the Red River BBQ.
|
|||
The Ballpark in Arlington seems very well designed to move people fast and easy. Wide traversing walkways and long escalators to transport you to the nosebleed sections. This view looks down from the upper escalator. |
|||
Looking out the arched windows from the escalator Six Flag's new hyper roller coaster called Titan came into view. |

The more you escalate the closer Titan seems to get. |
|||
|
|||
The upper concourse of the stadium is a big open walkway with great views. This is looking across Interstate 30 to a small portion of sprawling Hurricane Harbor, the Six Flags Waterpark. |
|||
|
|||
The upper concourse provides a much closer view of Six Flags and Titan. Titan appears to dwarf the Texas Giant which is the World's top rated wooden roller coaster and is visible directly behind Titan. |
|||
This close-up gives a much better idea of why Titan is scaring people even more than the former number one rated coaster, the Texas Giant. |
|||
Almost forgot we were at the Ballpark, but let's take one more look at Titan before we return to the game. |
|||
Baseball games take place in the Ballpark in Arlington. At this particular game the Texas Rangers are playing the Anaheim Angels. A member of one of those teams appears to be at bat in this view. |
|||
For those not enamored of watching a baseball game exploring the stadium seems an enjoyable activity. This view is from the highest level nosebleed section. Unlike the field formerly known as Enron in Houston, or Safeco Field in Seattle, there appears to be no roof over the Ballpark in Arlington. Inclement weather must be a rarity in North Texas... |
|||
|
|||
We are looking at the area behind the center field home run fence. When a home run occurs fireworks go off behind those signs you see at the top of the stadium and the Jumbotron spells out 'Don't Mess With Texas'. It is not known if this message occurs for every home run. |
|||
This is a slightly bigger photo, shot in panorama mode. You'll start on the left side of the field and go all the way to seeing home plate being hovered over by a spectator's nose.

Thank you for letting us take you out to the Ballgame in the Ballpark in Arlington | |||
