| - After many...MANY MONTHS, its almost time for DODGER BASEBALL!! From October to mid-February, I had to fill my sports appetite with basketball. When I got an e-mail from the Dodgers to register for tickets for Spring Training.....I WAS ON my A-GAME. I have visited Dodgers Stadium and Isotopes Park. I can finally mark, Camelback Ranch off my list.
I attended the first three games of the 2013 Spring Training Seasons with the Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Cubs. The first game was going to have the most crowd because of everyone showing up including the NEW owners from the Guggenheim Partners. Camelback Ranch is quite new and very scenic. It is home, not just for the Dodgers, but to the Chicago White Sox.
Access to Camelback Ranch is very easy and FREE PARKING! You have multiple ways to access the park: Straight into the stadium or take a very beautiful walk to the training fields. Bags will be checked. The big item is the water bottle. Only 1 Liter, but they may let it slide if you have more. No Can Sodas! I had tons of baseballs and they were wondering if I was going to throw all of them in the field. Nah, just purely for autographs. It would be funny if I did, but I would be banned.
The landscape is just marvelous with a canal running through and the multiple fields for other teams. You can watch the pitchers, major hitters, and/or watch players work on their techniques. You can try to grab players autographs behind the metal fence and some of them will slip by you. So, you better be READY!
After you are done watching the players, you can enter the park. You can re-enter the park if you need to. They will exit your ticket and re-enter it in their system. There is a team store for both the Dodgers and White Sox. The park is so clean, you wouldn't realize you were there for a game...until you hear the announcer call the players. I've had front row seats on the Dodgers Side and got a couple of Dodgers Autograph.
There is an All-You-Can-Eat Patio Section on the left field. It is much more classier than the All You Can Eat Pavilion at Dodger Stadium. I had great views of the Dodger Legend, Sandy Koufax and current Dodger Pitchers. You have the basic items: hot dogs, chips, popcorn, and peanuts with soda. I ate so much that I didn't even have room for ice cream....Until the next day that is....lol.
I've met a couple people at Dodger Stadium such as Dean who is an user at Section 27, Stephanie, one of the security at the gate, Melissa, host at the All You Can Eat Patio, and Jose, another host at the All You Can Eat Patio. Without these wonderful people who represent, not just the Dodgers, but Camelback Ranch, the experience wouldn't be the same. It would feel like the old Dodger Days and I am sure a lot of you don't want those days to come back.
Dodger Stadium, Isotopes Park, and Camelback Ranch are just simply amazing. I've had great moments at every baseball venue and I...SO...can't wait to go back. April 1st is the Dodger Home Opener and can't wait for those words: It's Time for Dodger Baseball!
Yelp is my Review, My Story, and My Life. It's time to share it.
