The Detroit Tigers are one of Major League Baseball's oldest franchises. They go back to 1894 and became a charter member of the American League in 1901. The team has won four World Series titles (1935, 1945, 1968, and 1984) each marking a distinct chapter in Detroit's cultural and industrial evolution. Legendary players like Ty Cobb, Hank Greenberg, and Al Kaline helped shape the Tigers' identity, while the team itself has remained a symbol of resilience and pride for a city that knows both triumph and hardship. But I'm only a fan of the Detroit Tigers as far as Tom Selleck goes. His Tigers cap became a signature part of his character Thomas Magnum. Born in Detroit and a lifelong Tigers fan, Selleck insisted on wearing the cap to reflect his own roots. The hat's presence on national television helped popularize it beyond the ballpark, turning it into a pop culture icon. Selleck even trained with the Tigers during spring training in 1991 to prepare for his role in Mr. Baseball, further cementing his connection to the team. I was at Comerica Park on August 19 2025 and watched the Detroit Tigers edge out the Houston Astros in a tense 1-0 victory that took ten innings. A true defensive matchup by great pitchers - only nine hits for the whole game and in the end, a bases-loaded walk decided the game. [Review 986 of 2025 - 465 in Michigan - 24540 overall] read more

Comerica park added a ton of food and drink options this past year. A good improvement but be prepared to pay extra for it. All seats are decent but lower bowl is great. Main compliant is that the Little Caesars order ahead line was being used for regular orders which means I still had to wait, booo. read more

Comerica Park is such a cool spot to catch a Tigers game. The tiger statues, the Ferris wheel, and the views of downtown Detroit really give the place a unique vibe. It's fun for families too, with the carousel and little extras that make it more than just a baseball stadium. The food is pretty good--you've got your classic ballpark staples, but also some Detroit-style pizza and a craft beer bar, which is nice. That said, it's definitely on the pricey side but what stadium isnt. read more

Great stadium to watch a Tigers Game. Everything is wheelchair accessible. There's also family bathrooms throughout that make things easier for families or PWD. Parking is the only hassle when coming to the games. Expect a walk no matter where you park. read more

The Detroit Tigers rank in the top 10 in MLB in both World Series victories and World Series appearances, all time. However, despite appearing in the World Series twice this century (2006, 2012), the Tigers haven't won it all since 1984. Detroit's titles came in 1935, 1945, 1968, and 1984. They've also won the AL pennant 11 times. In the modern era, the Tigers have set dubious records. Detroit went 43-119 (.265) in 2003 and 47-114 (.291) in 2019. In terms of total losses, the 2003 team's 119 losses is the second-worst in MLB history. The 2019 team's 114 losses is sixth-worst. Also, the 2003 team's 119 losses is a record-high for most losses in a single season by an AL team. Detroit's 1984 team was led in part by Hall-of-Fame shortstop Alan Trammell. Trammell was drafted by the Tigers in 1976 and played his entire professional career for the team. His last game in 1996 (20 years). He was a six-time All-Star and the 1984 World Series MVP. Today, Trammell works in Detroit's front office as one of several "Special Assistants to the General Manager." The Tigers had a disappointing showing in the 2012 World Series. They got swept by the San Francisco Giants, 4-0. At the time of writing this, the 2012 World Series was the last Fall Classic to have a sweep. To Detroit's credit, the Tigers swept the New York Yankees, 4-0, in the 2012 ALCS. Outfielder and DH Delmon Young was named ALCS MVP with two homers and six RBIs. Since the ballpark's opening in 2000, the Tigers have called Comerica Park in downtown Detroit home. Unlike a lot of major pro sports arenas and stadiums, Comerica Park (named after Comerica Bank) hasn't changed from its original name. The stadium has a seating capacity of 41,083, seventh-biggest among the AL's 15 stadiums. It's located in "The District Detroit," the city's 50-block sports and entertainment development.

Super cool video board such great pizza and I really like it plus it's cool my ice cream was really good and I really like the popcorn and I love the jerseys and the seats are cool read more

Wow! We loved the game and cheering our hearts our for our guys. Unfortunately the mask police were disrupting the enjoying environment. We are fully vaccinated. We do not need to be wearing masks outside in public. We were spaced well away from other parties. We were not even able to get on the camera because without having a mask on. What a way to spoil a cute event. Pas Bon. I don't think I will be going back until mask policies are lifted. I do wish to thank all the workers there at the concession stands, safety guards and the janitors. The safety and cleanliness of the arena is greatly appreciated. read more

I wanted to attend a Tigers game as we just re-located to the Detroit area. Had a question about handicap seating as I cannot do stairs. Called the organization and was treated rudely by the agent that answered the phone. I explained that I was looking at handicap seating on the website for tickets and wasn't sure if the seats recommended were for wheelchairs only or they were seats for disabled. She was rude, not helpful and stated I would need a wheelchair. She suggested I look at front rows on the aisle. I said I have never been there, how would i get to the front row without stairs. Needless to say, I won't be supporting any home baseball team here. And I might be wrong, but how can entire rows with seat assignments be for all wheelchairs?? where do the people they came to the game with sit?? Big thumbs down for this organizations employees. I would think a team like yours would welcome any fans new or old, but clearly I would be wrong. read more

The most consistent team in Detroit sports history. The Tigers are a reliable source of sports passion and entertainment. They have had their lulls as teams do but nothing like the ::ahem:: always and forever shitty Lions teams, the currently sucky Pistons or even the 60 yr drought that the Red Wings had us suffer through. I grew up with the Tigers. My best friend growing up had a dad who worked for them so we had freebie game tickets galore (yes even during the World Series year of 1984). I also had one of the player's kids in my class and girl scout troop. My dad and grandfather were lifelong fans so yeah I saw them on TV and listened to Ernie Harwell on the radio a lot too. These things make you more invested in a team for sure. I married a Cubs fan. We both root for each other's teams as long as we do not face each other. Thank goodness he was a National League team fan or it may not have worked out quite so well. I have made him an actual Tiger's fan though, not just an attendee. Illitch has kept them watchable and competitive, which helps. There is just something about the Tiger team that is likeable though, it did not take long for James to be hooked. I was sad when Tiger Stadium was torn down but am happy enough now at Comerica Park. It is starting to feel more homey and normal to me as we go more often. It is also very patron friendly with more conveniences, I will admit it, Tigers? I just can't quit you. read more

Detroit exploration (cont). Received a free ticket from a company giveaway, so the Monday night game with the Oakland A's would be my first introduction to Tigers baseball. Little did I realize how good it was going to be! They had a ceremony before the game for the 30th anniversary of the World Series winning team. Through a slow start before a 4th inning rally, then the A's taking a 3 run lead, and finally the outstanding bottom of the 9th grand slam! I felt sorry for all the people who left early and didn't get to see that! A friend of mine later said that the Tigers lead the division in last minute (8th or 9th inning) rallies. Definitely repeat and recommend! Can't wait for my next Tigers game! read more

LET'S PLAY BALL!!! Let's go Tiger's... Let's Go!!! Remember people -- just because you see the first low parking fee doesn't mind you have to get it. You do have legs especially on nice days; you can park inside of Greektown Casino (FREE PARKING) and walk over which only takes 10mins or 15mins if you have kids. If you are parking at the Greektown, then come at least two hours before the game; the casino starts charging $10 if you don't have a casino card. Tigers (9) VS White Sox (0) -- shut out game!!! read more

This is a pretty clean stadium and fairly easy to navigate....except for the 300 level. I've been to this stadium a little over a handful of times and had fun whether it was raining at the stadium, which is had once and when it's sunny with a slight breeze. The food at the stadium is of course, expensive, but that's okay because my hubs and I usually stop at Bucharest before a game. But that doesn't deter us from getting snacks and drinks during a game. The souvenir shop is awesome cause it offers a ton of Tigers clothes, but just like the food, it's overpriced. I was very close to buying a $50 Tigers shirt and told my hubs that I would check amazon first and sure enough, I found a few shirts I liked at a much cheaper price! I love that they have kids day on Sundays and free giveaways. This is definitely a must if you've never been to a game! read more

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU%^&#@%&KKKKKKKKK!!!!! Now that I've got that out of my system, let me tell you about my love for the Tigers. This is a team that will stab you in the heart repeatedly but you'll love every minute of it! From making the World Series and getting beat by a team who was barely above .500 to losing over 110 games in a season to blowing a seven game division lead with less than a month to go in the season, they will take you to the highest heights and drop you from them without a parachute. But through all the pain, they're still a loveable team. Once a generation or so, they'll actually win it all and make all the suffering better. For me, it was 1984, for my dad it was 1968, for my grandpa it was 1945. They're overdue for a title for this generation but living in Chicago now (and being a Cubs fan), I can say that it's better to have seen the promised land and miss the sensation than to never have experienced it at all. I just wish this scrappy little team of (high paid) castoffs (Placido Polanco, Magglio Ordonez, Carlos Guillen) had finished what they started this year. Still it was a wonderful, exciting, nail-biting ride. This season aside, thanks to the Tigers most of all for helping to revive downtown Detroit by moving onto Woodward Avenue. That's still a work in progress but Comerica Park has become a focal point for revitalization 81 nights a year. To see that many people pack the bars and restaurants of downtown D-town pre and post-game is a beautiful thing. If only it had been a few more nights of it this year. I went to the first game of the World Series a few years ago and Detroit was the proudest place in the world for even a few fleeting moments. And there's no putting a value on that (monetary or star-wise). GO GET 'EM TIGERS (next year)!!! read more

The Detroit Tigers are a new team for my husband and I and after our wonderful experience at their stadium, we love them! Not only is the stadium beautiful and state of the art, other fans super sweet, and the staff sent me my license after I dropped it on the floor! We are super pleased to be The Tigers new fans and plan on coming back for more baseball, hotdogs and beer:) read more

Detroit is a sports town to the core. Doesn't matter whether the Lions are going 0-15 or the Red Wings are pounding their way towards another Conference final, this town loves its players and its teams. But I think, at heart, you're a city of tigers. Since I moved here in late 2011, so far I have seen two professional teams in action and the Tigers account for 75% of my limited sports diet. I'll be honest, professional athletics tends to lack a certain something for me. The stats don't send thrills through my heart and I could care less about the apparent strategies used in a game that's all about two men: one throwing a ball, the other strutting, spitting, and swinging a bat. Not exactly a team sport the way European football or ice hockey are, you know? That's why I went to the Tigers game as an experience with my fellow Detroiters. What's more beautiful than an afternoon at Comerica Park with people from the suburbs and the city, high and middle and working class, all ethnic stripes and persuasions sitting together? Not much. Sure, the prices of concessions are stupidly high and parking in a dubious lot around some buildings which need to be torn down or restored to unite Midtown with downtown reveals to me where improvements are needed. But once you're under those great stone tigers with baseballs in their fanged maws, you belong. I love that. This city is so unlike Chicago, its nearest rival, in that it welcomes everyone. Here's a towel, here's a t-shirt, and a big margarita in a skinny tube for $9.50. Enjoy the ball game, baby. The game leaves a lot to be desired for someone like me, but I love the crowds. They laugh, they gasp, they cheer. Applause for great hits or strike outs -- I was there on a near no-hitter night early in the season and again at their great demolishing of the Rockies -- soars into the sky, blasts off the buildings, and winds around the city sounds filtering up from Woodward. Men still doff their hats at the national anthem and the huge Meijer screen broadcasts lots of helpful and welcome information. I get a chuckle out of the kitsch of it all. A rainstorm that delayed the Rockies game sent me and the beau into the overpriced indoor cafe where we sat at a table carved with yearly layers of names, initials, best wishes, and cryptic messages. A family hiding from the rain joined us, and the dad immediately introduced himself and his teen daughters. Only in Detroit would we all be so friendly, especially since I'm sometimes shy around strangers and try to let them stay in their own bubbles of conversation. It was a great time. Do it at least once even if you don't give a crap about baseball. Walk to the third tier and hide a story above the Fox sports guy as he has the prime view in the house, and you have one slightly less great, which is within a degree of perfect. read more

Every year, my friends tell me this will be the year the Tigers will make it to the World Series. in 2006, the Tigers were known as the best team in all of Major League Baseball, and they are proving it again and again. The history, including Kirk Gibson, Mark "the Bird" Fidrich, Lou Whitaker, along with today's players make me a Detroit fan for life. GO TIGERS! read more

I have to support the Tigers because they were such a large part of my childhood. I was at Comerica this year, and I don't know how I feel about my experience. On one hand, the Tigers themselves were entertaining. If all it took to make my night was a hot dog and a bunch of guys smacking a ball around, then I suspect I'd be happy every day. On the other, the park itself sort of hindered my first ball experience in quite some time. The prices are just outrageous; Bruce is right - $10 beers. Also, you'll pay an arm and a leg for a slice of pizza (which is so small it's like a pizza roll. Hot dogs are outrageous as well. What ball park was it that made prices low because "every child that comes to a ball game should be able to have a hot dog?" That's a smart way to do business. But back to the Tigers. They kicked butt the evening we were there, and that made up for being able to afford A drink, having to walk up three flights of stairs to smoke, and having to leap over a fat guy with a whole large pizza on his lap (no, I'm not kidding). If the Tigers can make that worthwhile, then they can make anything worthwhile. read more

This team brought Detroit back to it's love affair with baseball in 2006. The expectations were high this year with the acquisition of Miguel Cabrera (my new favorite Tiger) and Dontrelle Willis. The season has been disappointing, but it's still wonderful to have the downtown stadium practically sold-out for every home game, and people buzzing about our boys of summer again. As far as the rest of this 2008 campaign and our chances? Well as Jay-Z put it, "Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week." Go get 'em Tigers! read more

There was a nice article today (July 20 2014) in the Detroit News about the Tigers, focused on Tiger Stadium (the old stadium) versus Comerica Park (the new stadium). I don't think the link could be posted here but anyway I disagree with the article strongly enough to post on it here. There is nothing that I love more about the Tigers than their history. I grew up attending baseball games because whenever it was my birthday or a special day that was what I wanted to do (go to a game). I have a lot of memories of not just the modern day Tigers but the old time Tigers too. i know that we are in an era of sabermetrics and analytics and new training regimes and new coaching strategies. I love that because it is fun and makes me interested in the game in new aspects. Every sport needs to evolve and find new ways to grow. However, baseball is also about tradition and history, moreso than most American sports. We shouldn't forget Tiger Stadium because we now have Comerica Park, just like we shouldn't forget Ty Cobb or Al Kaline (iconic players of the team from the past) just because we have Miguel Cabrera (the iconic player of the team today). The way that the Tiger Stadium withered away in downtown Detroit was pretty pathetic. It was a symbol of the corruption that was in the air in Detroit at that time and many parties were to blame. I personally wish that there was some kind of museum that could have been made without all the back and forth bickering that occurred before the stadium was eventually demolished. It was hard to see the bulldozers go through (I sadly watched some of it in person) but you can't have an empty stadium too. There is still passion about that stadium though so I hope that the site, even if it's just a field now, is still considered a treasured area in Detroit. By treasured, I mean not just treasured as a place where new housing can be built or we can bring in a new shopping center with a few "dollar stores ". Great cities across the world preserve sites of importance. On the path to making Detroit a great city again, let's find someway to preserve one of our sites of importance and share our history rather than forget it and move on. read more

One of the nicest ballparks in the country. Haven't seen the new Yankee stadium...yet...but sat next to a guy making his final round of all the ballparks and even he had nothing but great things to say about the ball park. It is one of the most kid friendly and walkable stadiums in the country. If you've never been to another ballpark, you don't know what you have. The COPA is a great spot to check out a game. Easily accecssible and always a fun time. The new scoreboard is TITS! Not a bad spot to sit in the house. Not like the old tiger stadium obstructed views. One thing I dislike is the new smoking sections, how stupid is it that you are outside and yet you still have to walk "outside" to smoke leaving your beer on the fence? That's my only gripe. read more

This review is of the venue, not the team (obviously.... Who am I to critique professional baseball players? I mean, that's totally unheard of, right?) Compared to the old stadium, this one is better. But that doesn't mean it's perfect. Yes, it's a beautiful ballpark. Every seat gives you a good view. As someone else already yelped, it's very walkable. And I do love the fact that I can take a bus from a block away for my house that drops me off at the front door. That being said..... Two major drawbacks detract from the overall experience. The first is the lack of overhangs/protection from the elements. As other ballpark designers have established, it IS possible to build a stadium with some shade and some minimal protection from wind and rain. Weather can and should be mitigated even in this kind of an outdoor venue. Sadly, here you are left to bake in the sun like so many dried out old hot dogs..... Secondly, what is up with these prices??? Seriously! Who can pay 20 bucks for a beer and a hot dog? Free water is hard to find, which is criminal given the probability of sunstroke in unshaded seats. I smuggled in snacks and diet coke, but should net have to feel like a criminal just because I wanted something to drink during a long game. Shame on whoever sets the prices for making baseball inaccessible to the average Joe/Jane. read more

Stadium is nice but this review is on the TEAM hellooo? Mr Illitch finally seems to be investing some money into the team rather than using them as a tax deduction against his golden boy trophy team (the Red Wings). The team seems to be doing better. I never really was a fan, but it's fun to watch. $8 for a small beer (12 oz) and $10 for a large (16 oz)? WTF?! Still though, it's good fun, and the scenery (as in, of the female variety) seems to be getting better in the stands... keep a sharp eye and see what you can catch boys... read more

On this Memorial weekend I have one song in mind, Baseball, Hot Dogs, and Apple Pie(I prefer chocolate cream pie though). What better way than to celebrate it with friends at a Tiger game. Since this review is about the Tigers and not the ballpark I must say there is no better team to root for in baseball. From the time I was introduced to baseball when my father said " nice catch, I see you throwing a ball for the Tigers". Back when I was five that scared the daylights out of me and I had nightmares because I thought I would have to throw a baseball at a real tiger. He'd chew me up. I didn't know he meant THE baseball team. My fond memories of a Tiger fan.... 1968 World Series - Watching the games in my catholic grade school in class with the nuns more interested than most of the kids. My first baseball game - Al Kaline home run. Walking to Fort Street, picking up the bus to Trumbull , walking to the ballpark and catching a doubleheader in the bleachers, all for $3.00, by myself. 1984 World Series - After a start to finish first place and a 35-5- record to start the season. Taking my daughters to their first Tiger game, just missed a foul ball. There's many many more but there's nothing better than being a Detroit Tiger baseball fan!!! read more

We drove 4 1/2 hours to see the Tigers play. It was a beautiful sunny day and best of all, they won the game. Awesome!

Let me just say right off the bat that I miss the old Tiger Stadium. I know Mr. Ilitch needs the luxury suites and the higher ticket price to pay for the team (and I use that term loosely. How can you finish last behind the KC Royals?) payroll. But something is just missing. For one thing, ain't no shade. Better bring the sun screen, and umbrella, or somethin' because you will fry. For you sun tanning buffs, that may be alright, but for me of the naturally tan persuasion, ITS DAMN HOT! Of course I can't complain too tough. A former professor of mine gets group tickets and if a game pops up that he doesn't want to go to, he'll pass a pair of tickets my way. What's that expression about beggars being choosy? Prices for a hot dog and coke/water are outrageous. Took one son one game and the other son another game and I told each after paying $5+ for their food: "Chew slowly and savor the moment." It rained on and off one game and the wind blew so bad that you had a mob of people rushing the door of the only enclosed place on my level...the bar! Another game the heat was beating down so much that I had to duck underneath the stands to get some shade. For health reasons (mine and the youngest lad) we left and found an air conditioned environment and big screen to finish watching the game...which in typical fashion last season the Tigers lost. So hey, if the tickets are free and you get an advance on the monthly paycheck, then by all means go. read more

Enjoyed my 3rd game this year at Comerica Park yesterday at the Champions Club. Every time, including yesterday, everyone associated with the Tiger organization was exceptional! Friendly, courteous, professional, out-going, just stellar! From the parking lot attendants to security, the gates, elevator, servers, just everyone I encountered every time. Good Job vetting your employees and volunteers! UPDATE: I am revoking my last statement. Had a run in with a cranky old Usher in section 129 Tigers Den. It only takes one to ruin the repetition of many. I left the last game of the season with a very bad taste in my mouth because of this one very rude usher. Shame on you Tiger Organization. read more
