A beautiful park but.....
3 Star Rating: Average

You're not aloud to actually cheer for your team here. The park policies are ridiculous. They expect all fans to remain firmly seated for the duration of the contest, no matter if it's a critical point in the game when the crowd should be excited and encouraging their team. The cause is a subdued atmosphere which is a real bummer. I went to opening day in 2007 and predicted correctly that the loudest point in the game would take place during the simulated hydroplane race shown on the big screen, never mind Sexton's go-ahead homerun. By all means, this is a splendid park deserving of better from its managment and their policies. In the Kingdome, at least we were aloud to be good fans.

Pros: great views (especially in the 100 level concessions, a gem of a park

Cons: fans discouraged to cheer by zealous ushers, sell some plasma pregame to afford the concessions

Insider Tips

Parking

Stadium parking is limited. A good bet is to park downtown and take the bus tunnel to Pioneer Square.
