Baseball in Seoul

There are some stark differences between baseball games in Korea and those in the States.  The best part about  the stadiums in Korea is that you can bring in whatever you want, including beer.  The vendors sell KFC chicken and Burger King burgers at almost no mark up.  Decent tickets cost only about $15 dollars which is a big difference to what I am usually used to paying.




From a baseball purists point of view the games in Korea may not be as enjoyable as they are stateside but if you are looking to go out with a few friends and have a good time, baseball games in Korea are definitely one of the places you can go to do that.  The crowd has custom cheers for most of the players and there are cheerleaders, yes cheerleaders in between innings.  The games actually resemble soccer matches in Europe but don't actually get as rowdy.
