| - Ok I have to say that I was NOT looking forward to this stadium because I am a huge Rockies fan, and to be honest I liked going to Tucson and watching at Hi Corbett. A more intimate spring training venue in my opinion. However I will say that I really enjoyed the design of Salt River. Watching practice and being able to see it upclose is uber cool. We really enjoyed the game from our seats right behind home plate, but I have to admit it was way to much like going to Coors Field. Looks kinda the same, feels the same. Only one real difference, well two, ok three, Coors Field is cheaper at the concession stand, and you CANNOT bring in your effin pistachios! We always have brought Chipotle and pistachios to any game any where, it is like tradition for us. Standing outside the gate eating my food is not what I would call fun. We do this because we are vegan and we can trust Chipotle. What did the have at the park for us, NOTHING! And finally, is that really a team store? Please that is garbage! It has been tradition for me to get a spring training shirt whit the year on it. There was 1 that I liked but it was $53 dollars. Are you serious! Literally we sat directly behind home plate in row one seat one, I could see the stiching in the ball coming to the plate and I only paid $25 for that. It was less in Tucson but those days are over. I do understand why the Rockies and the Diamondbacks moved to Phoenix, but from now on i will wait for the regular season games. Sorry.
