Worst Stadium your ever attended?
Oh, another "I won't go to Wrigley" take. I really don't get it--it's a pretty great place to see a game.
Being a Red Sox fan, I just went to Fenway for the first time in my life last month. I now feel that I have to goto Wrigley, just so I can compare the two (Fenway will be better).
Red Sox fan also, Fenway is better. Maybe if I was a Cubs fan then I will say Wrigley.

It's not terrible so much as very empty and boring - or at least it was when the Royals were bad.
I get that Cubs fans are going to have some affection for it, but it's a dump.

Legion Field in Birmingham
to see it a few years ago and was very disappointed in many things about it. Just didn't meet my expectations. However I still would love to have seen an old Iron Bowl game there in the 80's or 90's.
but we just did this like 2 weeks ago
Easy: Citrus Bowl pre-renovation. Holy hell what a dump.
Close second: the upper deck of Spartan Stadium on a cold, rainy, and/or windy day.
Definitely Spartan Stadium. Unfortunately went to the trash tornado game in 2011

Toledo Sports Arena.
Indiana football. Only because of traffic. One way in, one way out.

onto the ice from the upper deck in Olympia as a kid. Crazy steep and up-close. The upper deck sight lines were better than any of today's venues.
The Joe was built at the nadir of arena design in 1979 before The Palace of Auburn Hills ushered in a new era that improved seating greatly for luxury box owners and somewhat for upper deck attendees.
Olympia. What a view from the upper deck!
The Joe. No overhang. Get out your binoculars.
The Palace. An improvement over the Joe, at least
The old Boston Gardens smelled like piss, had a ton of obstructed view seats and an inexplicable haze of smoke even after smoking was banned in the arena.
As a twist to the OP, I would say that Jerry World in Dallas is the Worst Stadium compared to expectations that I have been to. It's like a giant concrete prison with no character at all and the stands are so far away from the field that you HAVE to watch the game on the giant TV. The tailgating scene in the parking lot is unbearable given that the place is surrounded by a few miles of black asphalt.
The Metrodome, the Old Comiskey, the old Orange Bowl and the old Gator Bowl were all pretty bad.

Proof that parents shouldn't leave their passwords out where their 3rd-grade children can find them.
All I know is we won't have to worry about a bad seat at the big house this year:

Memorial Stadium before the refurbishing. Basically Spartan Stadium with war memorials. Wind blown prarie straight from the pig and cow farms. Students are (or were) miserable yuppies with no concept of good football at all. Every person I met was a complete dick from the minute I set foot in that town. Even then they thought Michigan was the biggest rivalry. I just wanted to die there.
The Big O was pretty terrible, and I'm sure it's worse now. There could be an entire section here dedicated to mirth Canadian concrete domes. The SkyDome is a joyless tomb that has terrible sightlines for baseball in spots and BC is about the same but older.
