Welcome to Regency Furniture Stadium, in Waldorf, Maryland, southeast of Washington, DC. The southern Maryland Blue Crabs are a first year franchise in the independent Atlantic league, a full-season minor league.
The stadium is located literally in the middle of nowhere, in a soon-to-be developing area a couple of miles off US-301. At night, the stadium has the only lights for about a mile.
A seat was $13, a little pricey, but even the worst seats have a great view of the field. Lawn seats beyond the right field fence are $6.

Up Close and Personal
The stadium has about 4,000 seats, and like a few other smaller parks, the seats in the outfield corners are turned in towards the infield. Makes for a great view of the game, unless a ball is hit into the corner closest to you.
Regency Furniture Stadium is well set up for groups, with a party suite in the left field corner with a large room and skybox style seats in front. The skyboxes behind home plate are also VERY close to the action.

Bumper Boats in the Outfield!
Apparently, the Blue Crabs have decided to go the Arizona Diamondbacks one better, putting a large pool with bumper boats in left field. Kids can pilot these boats like bumper cars, and use the water cannons to soak their friends.
Regency Furniture Stadium
Regency Furniture Stadium is a nice, cozy ballpark, with plenty of good seats. The hot dogs are great, as is the beer. If only the baseball could have been a little better. The Blue Crabs beat the Riversharks 12-8 in nine innings, and the game took over 4 hours!
