So after all of the work done on this trip, one last stop at AT&T Park was needed.
The stadium is awesome. It is right against the water. The kayakers were out before the game to try and catch some batting practice home runs.
How many stadiums have a view of the water?
The coke bottle is actually a slide for kids and drunken adults.
It was absolutely gorgeous and a perfect day for baseball. It was the Giants Home Opener, so there were plenty of pre-game activities.
The coolest part about the park is that there are tons of little features that are only seen here For example the Giants 500 HR club.
They released a ton of balloons before the game. This makes Amy mad.
Tim Lincecum was introduced to a loud ovation. Always great to see a UW Alum.
Another cool thing was that Jerry Rice threw out the first pitch and he threw it to Steve Young. After the first pitch, Rice went out for a pass and Young threw a baseball TD to him. It was very cool.
No one has hit the glove yet and 501 feet is a long way to hit a ball....someday.
The splash hits meter keeps track of Home runs that land in the water. Most of these belong to Barry Bonds.
To the left of the Comcast sign is a plaque where Bonds record breaking 756th HR hit.
Below is Pedro Sandoval.
His nickname is Kung Fu Panda.
Wholly cow, it is Potatoes O'Flaherty. He is on the Braves now.
I had to leave the game a bit early to catch my flight home, but I will be back.
