| - My first Dbacks game at Chase Field was amazing!
This was my first experience at the indoor ballpark and at a Diamond Backs (Dbacks) baseball game. Much like any arena, everything is overpriced, especially the parking. I am sad to say that we should have done some research as far as the parking goes. Parking ranges from $10 in the garage to as high as $40 in a near by lot. Unfortunately we did not see the value parking until we started walking in from the $25 dollar lot. That extra $15 dollars could have bought us nachos with a side of jalapenos, value hot dog, and a value pretzel with a side of nacho cheese.
The indoor amenities were really nice, plenty of AC and lighting. They have a nice gym, sandlot for the kids, and fun little games at every inning. There is even a park side pool you can enjoy the game at for a higher priced ticket. I enjoyed the game and the atmosphere especially when my ticket was free!
Our section 102, won a free Circle K hot dog at one of the inning activities. I don't understand the Dbacks mascot which should be a rattle snake, but instead they have "Baxter" the bobcat. I guess a rattle snake is not as cute and cuddly as a bobcat.
Recommendation: Do some research and map out the $10 parking garage, eat from the value menu, bring your own water. Enjoy the AC, Go Dbacks!
