In the concourse above the retired numbers, there are statues of the first 6 Tigers whose numbers have been retired. Ty Cobb’s statue is also included. The Tigers didn’t add numbers to their uniforms until the early 30’s, so no number accompanies Cobb’s Statue. On the right field side of the wall are the names of several important names in the Detroit baseball community. The Tigers have retired the following numbers:

• #2 — Charlie Gehringer (1983)
• #3 — Alan Trammell (2018)
• #5 — Hank Greenberg (1983)

Comerica Park| Must Do

Check out the statues.

Most notably, you’ll notice several large tiger sculptures and 80-foot tall baseball bats out front of the gates to the park. Once you’re inside Comerica Park, you’ll notice statues aligning the brick walls in the outfield. Along the interior of the brick, facing the field, are the numbers retired by the Tigers. A statue of the Tiger each retired number belongs to is located atop the brick wall in the standing room of the outfield concourse. You may notice Ty Cobb is missing a number. This is because the Tigers didn’t add numbers to their uniforms until the early 30’s. You’ll find:

• Willie Horton
• Hank Greenberg
• Charlie Gehringer
• Hal Newhouser

In the concourse near section 212, you’ll also find a statue of the long time beloved radio broadcaster Ernie Harwell. Harwell spent 42 seasons as the voice of the Tigers and is famous for his “It’s Looong Gone” home run call. Here that and some of his other gems below:

Visit the Carnival Themed Rides

Looking for something to do other than watch the ballgame? The Tigers have you covered. On the 1B side of the park near section 119, there is a Carousel with hand painted Tigers instead of horses. You’ll also find some carnival themed mini games near the carousel. On the 3B side near section 132, you can ride a ferris wheel with baseball shaped cars. The cost for each ride is $2, but is free for kids on Sundays.

Explore the Walk of Fame

Since joining the American League in 1901, the Detroit Tigers are the oldest franchise in league history to keep one name and one city continuously. The walk of fame consists of several small displays that detail the deep history of the Tigers since the 1800s when they were a member of the minor league. You’ll find the display cases throughout the main concourse. If you are a baseball or a history fan, you’ll definitely want to take the time to view them.

Keep an Eye on the Chevy Fountain

There’s a reason the Tigers are nicknamed the Motor City Kitties. Detroit was built by the American automotive industry. Since Comerica opened in 2000, the fountains in Center Field have paid homage to this fact. In 2009, the recession hit the auto industry (and Detroit) hard. Strapped for cash, General Motors was unable to renew their sponsorship of the fountain. Instead of taking the GM logo down, the Tigers added the Chrysler and Ford logos to the fountain as a show of support for the entire American automotive industry, and the people of Detroit. In 2010, GM was able to renew their sponsorship, and the fountain is now known as the Chevy Fountain.

The fountain is used to celebrate home runs, and puts on a “liquid fireworks” display with synchronized lights and music, so you’ll want to keep an eye on it during the game.

Did we forget something?

Baseball Bucket List relies on information from Bucketheads to keep our guides and resources up to date.

Comerica Park | Transportation and Parking

Comerica Park is located in downtown Detroit, which if we’re being honest, doesn’t have the greatest reputation for safety. It’s rare for anything to happen near the ballpark, but it’s always a good idea to be aware of your surroundings. We recommend driving and parking in one of the official lots or nearby off-site lots.

Official Comerica Park Lots

The “officially recommended” lots near Comerica Park are actually owned and operated by a third party — Olympia Development. These lots are near the ballpark and are secure and well lit. You can purchase parking as you arrive and pay by credit card. The closest lots to the ballpark cost $25. They are (click for directions):

• 61 East Elizabeth
• 850 Witherell Lot
• 200 Madison
• The D Garage
• Tigers Garage

With the exception of the Fox Garage, the lots west of Woodward Ave are slightly cheaper at $15. You’ll find several available Olympia lots, nearby some of the area’s bars and restaurants. As long as you stay east of Grand River, you’ll still be no more than a half mile from the ballpark. You can reserve any of these spots ahead of time by using the ParkWhiz App, officially recommended on the Tiger’s website

Off-Site / Free Parking Options Near Comerica Park

You’ll find several off-site parking lots that will range in price. As you drive in, look for signage and orange flags. You can also reserve a spot ahead of time on one of the following apps:

• Parking Panda

You can find street parking within a few blocks of the ballpark, so it’s worth making a lap. Just keep in mind that there are several residential buildings nearby, so you’ll want to make sure to check the signage. On Sundays, the meters are out of service so street parking is free.

Public Transportation

Public transportation is an option for Comerica Park, but we recommend avoiding it unless you are an experienced transit rider. The Q-Line is a streetcar that serves 12 locations throughout Detroit. The Q-Line has a stop on the corner of Woodward Ave and E Montcalm St, which is about a block from the park.

You can also ride the DDOT bus. You’ll want to take the #4 to the Woodward Ave and Columbia St stop.

One of your best options for transportation will be shuttles. If you’re staying near the ballpark, your hotel may offer a free shuttle. Additionally, there are several well known bars in the area where you can park a car for free, then pay a small fare to shuttle to Comerica Park. Nemo’s , Bookie’s , Harry’s , McShane’s , and The Old Shillelagh are all good options.

Uber & Lyft

The designated rideshare pickup zone is north of 75. Head north on John R St to find it. There should be signage marking the way.

If you’re new to Uber, you can use this link to get a discount on your first few rides.

You can also hail a cab, which there will be plenty of after the ballgame.

Comerica Park | Best Seats

Best seats for tigers history.

“Mr. Tiger,” Al Kaline never played at Comerica Park, but he still has a corner there. In 1954 and 55, the Tigers removed box seating from Old Tiger Stadium to make room for Al Kaline as he chased down foul balls. The right fielder was known for giving an all out effort that would sometimes send him crashing into the right field seats. A beautiful writeup of the process can be read on kalinescorner.com . When the club moved to Comerica Park, it seemed only natural to include Kaline’s Corner. According to fans of Old Tiger Stadium, the view of the corner at Comerica is almost identical to the old ballpark. Some fans disapprove of the recreation, but the seats offer a great view and are a nice nod to one of the greatest Tigers of all time.

Best Seats for Game Views

Comerica Park is another park with a great view of the downtown skyline in the outfield, so we prefer the interior seating bowl. The third deck at this park offers padded seats and a great view of the entire park and skyline. These seats are also great for budget conscious fans. If you don’t mind spending a bit more money (Think $80ish per ticket), you can score seats in the Tiger Den. The Den is located in the top few rows of the lower seating bowl. These areas are designed to look like the old school “boxes” that you’d find at older venues. You can move your chair around in your semi enclosed area. If you prefer to watch the game from one of the baselines behind a dugout, we’d recommend the 1B side here, since the scoreboard is situated in left field.

Where not to Sit

There aren’t any real obstructions at Comerica Park, or a bad seat to be had really. If we had to recommend staying away from a ticket, it would be for the outfield bleachers. These tickets are dirt cheap, but the bleachers are a general seating area that is first come first serve. They’re also far from the action and not as comfortable as the seats you’ll find in the rest of the park.

Best Seats for Shade

Home plate at Comerica Park faces south-east, which makes the 1B side the first to get shade. For truly midday games, you’ll want to try and find an overhang in the last few rows of the lower sections along 1B and the right field corner. As the sun sets, the shade will creep towards 3B.

Best Seats for Foul Balls

Looking to snag a souvenir from Comerica Park? According to foulballz.com , your best changes are along the 3B line in sections 132-137, and 122-118 on the 1B side.

Comerica Park | Ballpark Food

The must have: bratwurst.

Around the park you’ll find sausage stands which offer several different dogs. We’ve gotten nothing but rave reviews about their Bratwurst. Top it with peppers and onions for the full effect. Best paired with a cold beer. Try section 206 for both a dog and a brew.

Something Special: The Mac Daddy Dog

Detroit is famous for its dogs, and Comerica Park serves over 650,000 of them each year! The Mac Daddy is special. A regular hot dog topped with mac ‘n cheese, scallions and bacon. Find it at the Big Cat Court in section 119.

The Challenge: Coney Island Pizza

We’re calling this a challenge because we’re just…not sure about it. Square sliced Scicilian style pizza is a Detroit staple. Coney dogs are a Detroit staple. Square sliced Scicilian style pizza topped with coney island dogs, mustard, and onions? We’re not sure. If you’re brave enough to try it, let us know . You can find it at Little Caesars in the Big Cat Court (section 119) and sections 115, 137, 217, 323, and 334.

Vegetarian and Vegan Options at Comerica Park

You can find veggie dogs throughout the park at the Big League Grill (sections 108, 130, and 325). You’ll also find the Beyond Burger at the Big Cat Court (section 119). Big Cat Court also offers a falafel sandwich which is vegetarian.

Step Inside: Comerica Park – Home of the Detroit Tigers

• Copied to Clipboard

Home of the Detroit Tigers

Comerica Park is located in downtown Detroit, Michigan in the District Detroit section of the city. It is not far from other local arenas, like Little Caesars Arena, home of the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings and the NBA’s Detroit Pistons, and Ford Field, home of the NFL’s Detroit Lions. Comerica Park has been the home of the Tigers since 2000, replacing Tiger Stadium. It sits on the original site of the Detroit College of Law.

Comerica Park History

Comerica Park was built at the same time as Ford Field as a part of a revitalization project for downtown Detroit. Comerica Park sits near the Fox Theatre, as well as St. John Episcopal Church and Central United Methodist Church, two historic downtown churches. The first game held at Comerica Park was on April 11, 2000. Outside of the front gate is a huge statue of a tiger that welcomes fans. Once you step inside the stadium, you’ll find exhibits showing the history of the Tigers’ franchise, including memorabilia from MLB hall of fame players like Ty Cobb and Hank Greenberg, and a statue of longtime announcer Ernie Harwell.

On the left-field concourse, there are plaques for players who have their numbers retired by the team and a statue of Cobb. Over the years, LED scoreboards and video displays have been added. The stadium’s dimensions were changed in 2003, bringing in the left-center field wall 25 feet. In 2014, a $4-million renovation at the Pepsi Porch added over 400 seats to the ballpark.

Comerica Park has hosted many events, including the Hockeytown Winter Festival in December 2013 to coincide with the Winter Classic at the University of Michigan Stadium. A public ice skating rink was placed inside the stadium for fans to enjoy. Comerica Park has also hosted two soccer matches, a 2017 contest between Paris Saint-Germain and Roma in the International Champions Cup and a 2023 match between Sevilla and Crystal Palace for the Motor City Cup.

The stadium is a popular concert venue as well, hosting acts like P!nk, Elton John, Chris Stapleton, Billy Joel, Eminem, Rihanna, The Rolling Stones, and more.

Comerica Park

By Edward de la Fuente

Our guide to Comerica Park in Detroit includes information on events, tickets, parking, public transportation, nearby hotels and restaurants, seating, bag policy and more. Read on to find out how to get the most out of your gameday experience.

Comerica Park, home of the Detroit Tigers, occupies a prime spot in the city’s sports scene — it stands just off Woodward Avenue, a major thoroughfare downtown, and right next to Ford Field , home of the NFL’s Lions.

Its large dimensions, wide layout and luxurious exterior complete with tiger sculptures at several entrance gates, make it sort of the anti-Tiger Stadium. While its predecessor was, in its later years, a creaky but beloved old structure, Comerica Park took a while to establish itself in the hearts of Detroit sports fans.

It surely didn’t help that the Detroit Tigers were terrible in the early 2000s, the formative years of the stadium, but two American League pennants and frequent playoff contention for a good decade afterward made the ballpark a more happening place to be.

Besides, Comerica may not have the rich history that Tiger Stadium possessed just yet, but it’s got plenty worth seeing on its own. And it’s an easy place to get to, right in the heart of everything Detroit has to offer. Just the view beyond the outfield fence would suggest that.

Getting to the ballpark

Though there is a side street and a row of parking lots in between, Comerica Park’s address is on Woodward Avenue, which cuts through the heart of downtown heading southeast toward the Detroit River. Just a block away is Interstate 75, aka the Fisher Freeway, which most drivers into downtown will wind up on at some point in their journeys.

Most downtown Detroit hotels are located between the river and Comerica Park. On a warm summer evening, Woodward Avenue presents an opportunity for one of the nicest walks that you could have in Detroit, with plenty going on throughout downtown.

Walking not your thing? OK, Detroit has an automated tram system called the People Mover that runs in a continuous loop through downtown and stops at most places of interest. The closest station to Comerica Park is Grand Circus Park, though there are a few other stations (namely, Cadillac Center and Greektown) within reasonable walking distance as well.

There’s also the Q-Line Streetcar , which runs up and down Woodward Avenue and stops a block from the ballpark at Grand Circus. Either method is good for a quick ride if you’re trying to get from a downtown hotel to Comerica Park.

Parking at Comerica Park

For a downtown venue, Comerica Park has a  surprising amount of parking available, with several lots and structures surrounding the ballpark — most prominently the twin garages that stand across Montcalm Street to the north.

Numerous other private lots are available on nearby blocks, particularly around District Detroit, the area on the other side of the freeway that includes Little Caesars Arena .

There’s even ample street parking depending on the day and time. Washington Street, which radiates southward from Grand Circus Park, is a particularly popular spot for free-parking seekers because of its large median that allows for parallel parking on both sides of the street, in each direction.

Parking spots would be in high demand regardless of whether a Tigers game was being played at Comerica Park, so it you’re really looking for a bargain, get there early.

Map of the surrounding area

Things to do around the ballpark.

If you do choose to make that walk up Woodward Avenue, the noteworthy things you will pass between the river and Comerica Park include the famous Joe Louis fist monument; two parks, Campus Martius and Grand Circus; the city’s two most famous eateries dedicated to the coney dog, American Coney Island and Lafayette Coney Island ; numerous other shops and restaurants; and the historic Fox Theatre.

Eventually, you’ll see Comerica Park off to the right, across a parking lot, when you hit Grand Circus Park.

Because Comerica Park and Ford Field stand right next to each other, it makes sense that a lot of the surrounding restaurants would have a sports-fan atmosphere.

More popular options for eats and drinks lie on Woodward Avenue or in the nearby Greektown district, where many Tigers fans (and fans of Detroit’s other sports teams) can be found partaking in general merriment at one of numerous establishments.

Brush Street, which cuts through Greektown before passing between Comerica Park and Ford Field, is another street worth walking to find places to eat, drink or otherwise pass the time, and a few downtown hotels are located along this route.

Watching a game at Comerica Park

With all the stone tiger statues around, you might think you’re entering a palace — and in truth, Comerica Park does a good job conveying the palatial feel.

Once you’re inside, take a stroll around the main concourse, which the Tigers have gone to great lengths to dress up with reminders of the franchise’s long and rich history. Several displays, called “decade bats,” cover different eras in team history.

In left field, you’ll find statues of six Tigers greats, including Ty Cobb, Hank Greenberg and Al Kaline.

Also in the main concourse, you can find a ferris wheel (with cars made to resemble baseballs) and a merry-go-round in case the typical ballpark accoutrements aren’t entertaining you enough.

Just like the playing field’s rather large dimensions, the layout of Comerica Park’s seating bowl can feel pretty large as well — but it doesn’t necessarily mean the farthest seats offer a subpar view. Sight lines from the upper deck are typically fine, and if you’re seated behind home plate or on the third-base site, you’re treated to a splendid view of the Detroit skyline.

From upper-deck seating you’ll also have a pretty good view of Comerica Park’s outfield features, including the display of the Tigers’ retired numbers and the fountain nestled within the ivy-covered batter’s eye, which goes off whenever a Tigers player hits a home run or the team finishes off a victory.

One oddity you’ll probably notice rather quickly, regardless of where your seating area is located, is the placement of Comerica Park’s main scoreboard in left field. It’s strangely far left, practically in line with the foul pole, though most of the pertinent info is displayed in the center, well within view from most angles. (Steps were taken before the 2012 season to address these issues , including the installation of an HD scoreboard.)

Food and drink at Comerica Park

Comerica Park’s wide main concourse also includes a food court, the “Big Cat Court,” located behind the home-plate seating area; this is also where you’ll find the merry-go-round, aka the Comerica Carousel.

If you’ve entered the ballpark through Gate A at the intersection of Witherell and Columbia streets (recognizable by the two giant bats as well as the tiger sculpture in the middle), this area will be just off to the left.

If you’re looking for a good overview of the food offerings, the Big Cat Court is a good place to start, with just about every concession item offered in the ballpark available either here or somewhere else nearby.

Two items easily identifiable as part of Detroit cuisine, the coney dog and the Greek gyro sandwich, are readily available as well — both, in fact, are offered at the Leo’s Coney Island stand. It being Detroit and home to the powerful Ilitch family, Little Caesars Pizza also operates at the stadium.

Beer fans shouldn’t miss the Beer Hall, located on the third-base side, which features a wide array of local beers. If you’re sitting in the 300 level, then check out the Blue Moon Brewhouse, which also features a brewpub atmosphere within the ballpark.

Comerica Park bag and food policy

Per policy , approved bags for entry into Comerica Park must measure 4 inches by 6 inches by 1.5 inches or smaller. They need not be clear, like those permitted in NFL stadiums.

Backpacks of any kind, as well as suitcases and large purses are among the bags forbidden at Comerica Park, per stadium policy.

No outside food is permitted at Comerica Park, with the exception of one factory-sealed water per guest, or juice boxes if children are in the party.

Bags will be inspected by security at the entry gates to Comerica Park, and patrons carrying any bags that don’t comply with stadium policy will be denied entry.

In April of 2000, The Detroit News produced a commemorative section on the Detroit Tigers’ first game at their new home, Comerica Park. A quote from the headlining story read, “Comerica Park is expected to make the Detroit Tigers part of baseball’s nouveau riche...”

Groundbreaking for the $300 million project took place on October 29, 1997. More than 60 percent of the financing is private, with the rest contributed from public sources. In the time since groundbreaking, the design has continued to evolve. The resulting goal realized is a combination of a classic design for the seating area with amusement and entertainment features that are unique to  Comerica Park.

This tour is your chance to get a behind-the scenes look of Comerica Park, including the Home Dugout, Visiting Clubhouse, Visiting Batting Tunnel, Champions Club, Ernie Harwell Media Center, Detroit Tigers Walk of Fame and a Party Suite.

MLB brings back Players' Weekend, but without the fan-favorite nicknames

The august weekend will instead highlight players' interests, backstories and charitable causes.

Players' Weekend is returning to Major League Baseball this summer, albeit without special uniforms and nicknames on jerseys. On Thursday, MLB announced a reimagined version of Players' Weekend that will "provide a platform to celebrate MLB players' interests, backstories, and the charitable causes that are important to them."

Scheduled for the weekend of Aug. 16-18, different aspects of players' lives will be highlighted each day with special content at games, on broadcasts, and on social media. Here is the schedule:

• FUN (Friday, Aug. 16): Fun aspects of players' personalities, friendships, and off-field interests will be featured.
• CAUSES (Saturday, Aug. 17): Focus will be on charitable and community initiatives that are important to players.  
• APPRECIATION (Sunday, Aug. 18): Players will celebrate the people who helped them on their path to the Major Leagues.  

Rather than special uniforms and nicknames, players will wear caps with their uniform number displayed on the side and in a "youthful design," and they will be allowed to use customized bats.

There are two nationally televised games on the schedule this Players' Weekend: Los Angeles Dodgers at St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday (FOX) and the Little League Classic between the Detroit Tigers vs. New York Yankees in Williamsport, Penn., on Sunday (ESPN Sunday Night Baseball).

The original Players' Weekend ran from 2017-19. It was put on hold in 2020 because of the pandemic and remained on hiatus from 2021-23.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!

• Every day each car in  Moscow metro passes  more than 600 km, which is the distance from Moscow to St. Petersburg.
