I have yet to visit the Hall of Fame of any of the four major sports.
Museums I have visited:
Daytona 500 Experience in Daytona, FL
Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs in Louisville, KY
California Surf Museum in Oceanside, CA (lived two blocks away)
Smithsonian American History Museum in Washington DC - several incredible sports collections and exhibits

Only been to Canton. I've driven past the basketball in Springfield and I honestly do plan to take 89Jr to Toronto for the hockey hof.
Have also been to the world golf hof when it was still in Pinehurst.

There is also a United States Hockey Hall of Fame in Eveleth, MN, up in the Iron Range.
Wondering if any of the DC or Baltimore folks have been to the Babe Ruth Museum?

If you get the chance to go to Cooperstown I would definitely recommend it. Awesome place for a baseball fan.

I've been in the birthplace museum, but not the new Sports Legends one next to Camden Yards. I was at the birthplace museum, but it was an event, so I really didn't take the tour. I've been in the bar his family ran too. Before Camden Yards was built. That was a seedy section of town back then.

The Shoeless Joe Jackson birthplace and museum is less than a mile from my house - I should go check it out sometime.

The Hall of Champions, in Adams Fieldhouse, on the campus of The University of Montana.
Although he doesn't get a lot of credit for it, Ursus was the motivating factor for this Shrine being built.
