The longest I ever attended was at Angels stadium about 10 years ago, I think it was against the A's. It lasted 18 innings and they lost 2-1, one of those crazy games like this where both sides kept getting close but then would be turned back. By the end of the game the people that were left had all moved down to the seats behind the dugouts, it was almost like being at a high school game so few were there.
