| - I flew down from San Francisco to my first spring training this year. It was a great decision. I was lucky enough to go to three games at Scottsdale Stadium Fri, Sat, and Sunday and it was the best. I was so excited that I got there early all three days. I loved watching batting practice and seeing Jon Miller and Bochy talking to the players.
My friends went last year and got some autographs on a ball and I got some more myself. Having a quick chat with Santiago Casilla, Javier Lopez, Tommy Joseph, Heath Hembree, Clay Hensley, Chris Stewart, etc. was awesome.
The actual stadium is wonderful. As soon as I started heading toward my seat there were vendors selling ice cold beers. In Arizona they can bring it to your seat which is clutch. I did a lap around the stadium to really see every nook and cranny. The outfield lawn seating is cool, and you can even watch the minor leaguers warm up on the adjacent field from the outfield area.
I remember the food being good, I got chicken tenders and garlic fries. They were also cool about me bringing food in to the stadium. So, I have no complaints, if you're a true Giants fan you'll have to make a trip down here at least once.
