I really enjoyed seeing two Royals games at Surprise Stadium this spring. Uncle Jimmy's cheesesteaks in the left field concourse area were really good as we the ice cream from the booth next door. I liked the ice cream place's frozen lemonade as well. My wife had a BBQ chicken sandwich from the "Battle of the BBQ" stand and was a little disappointed. Evidently Surprise isn't going to win any BBQ battles with KC or even Texas for that matter.
We had great seats, although they were very narrow. If you want to ensure your seats are in the shade, choose seats between first base and home plate or seats in the second level.
Gates to the Royals practice fields open at 10:00, and players, especially minor leaguers, were very accommodating to kids seeking autographs or moms with cameras taking pictures.
Special thanks to the Surprise firefighters who taped up my hand after I sliced it open trying to grab a batting practice ball. Thanks for not making fun of me too much and for the Jr Firefighter sticker.
