My husband and I joined two friends for the Indians/Athletics game at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. I was happy because nice weather (for most of the game) + day drinking + baseball = one fantastic Sunday afternoon
Parking was easy (no problems getting in or out of the lot) and cheap at only $5. You can also take light rail to the Priest/Washington stop and walk to the ball park. We bought tickets at the window for $10 each and were very happy with our seats. We were in section 20 (outfield) in row 6 and it felt like we were practically on the field due to the small size of the stadium. We all decided that it really felt more like a minor league baseball park rather than the spring training facility for an MLB team. We were able to see players warming up quite easily and a few of the kids in our section got baseballs thrown up to them by some of the Indians players. The scoreboard is pretty small so if you have bad eyesight good luck seeing the stats and the score.
I didn't go up the concession stands, but when I walked by on our way to the seats, I saw it was very simple and small. There are plenty of beer stands around the park and there is even a stand where you can buy margaritas which made one of my friends happy. Draft beer was $6.50 for a 20 oz and the Miller Lite bottles we bought at our seats were $7. While the prices weren't bad, the alcohol policy is really dumb. Apparently, one person can only purchase up to 32 oz at one time; thus, you can buy 2 16 oz beers, but forget trying to buy 2 20 oz beers. Since I didn't go up with my husband to buy beer, he had the option of buying 2 16 oz drafts or 1 20 oz draft. He was told he could drop off the 20 oz beer to me and then come back up and buy another 20 oz draft. Seriously? That has to be one of the most dumb alcohol policies I have heard of at a sporting venue.
Despite the Indians losing and a silly alcohol policy, we had a good time at the game.
