| - I absolutely loved visiting this stadium, even though it the Dodger's training facility, but really it's only half theirs. Anyway, came to see my SF Giants play the Sox (White). First of all, free parking! Yay! Anything free is great. The grounds are beautiful with nice scenery as you walk to the stadium. It's a bit of a walk if you are carrying stuff, just FYI.
We purchased lawn seats, which were only $10, a steal to what we paid at the Scottsdale Stadium! We were advised by fans in the parking lot to buy lawn seats then find an empty seat later. $10 entrance is well worth the money. First of all, sitting on the lawn is not bad at all! You can get really close to the outfield and you get an excellent view of the players and the bullpen. I was lucky enough to catch Bruce Bochy signing autographs just before the game! He was walking from the bullpen to the dugout and stopped for the fans along the way! Ok back on track, what I like about this stadium is how open it is, so if you get up to go the bathroom or to get a soda, you can still see the game! How brilliant! And if it's too hot there's plenty of shade between first base and third where you can just hang out and watch under the fancy seats and what must be a clubhouse above you.
Best of all, the food options here are wonderful!! Definitely visit the burrito and taco stand. For $9 you get a monster burrito or tacos, made to order, your choice of carne asada, or chicken, or both! It's such a deal and the best stadium food I had on this trip! They have the hot dogs, sausages, Island noodles, and all the other crap, but I exhausted those options at the other games.
The stadium is clean, beautiful and modern. There are plenty of stalls in the bathroom, so no waiting, and it's very clean!! I was very impressed that they actually played walk-up music for each White Sox player! That's as good as you get to the regular season!
I look forward to coming back!
