As a long time Giants fan, I very much appreciate the Giant ownership groups effort in erecting A T & T Park. The group listened to fans suggestions, toured all the ballparks in America and took all their best features and ideas, picked a wonderful building location transportation-wise (that also helped rejuvanate its neighborhood) and incorporated all of this into one beautiful package. For a fan that saw the team nearly leave San Francisco twice, I can take comfort in knowing that not only will the team not threaten to leave again, but that as a San Franciscan I will always have this amazing place to watch baseball. A T & T Park is the ballpark that San Franciscans wanted for so many years, and after all the many failed ballot measures both in SF and elsewhere it feels great to call it our own. In regards to the negative post left by the person complaining about the size of the seats, I had not heard that complaint until now-and the park is entering its 8th season of baseball in 2 weeks. The food isn't cheap, but it is tasty. If the prices inside are a little steep for you, there are many places within one block of the ballpark (including a Safeway supermarket) one could get food ranging from sandwiches to pizza to ice cream- and the Giants let you bring it in the park. A true testament of the lure of the park is the Giants sub-.500 records in recent seasons and the fans 3 million-plus attendance in spite of that. This park is a must-see regardless of if you like baseball or not.
Pros: Beauty and smiles in every direction, fun and excitement
Cons: hmm....whenever a Dodger fan visits San Francisco?
