Chase is a corporate ballpark - clean, safe and full of MLB authorized 'charm'. Havent seen this many concessions since the Kyoto Protocol. Well behaved fans awash in beer. Best time to watch baseball is cool April/May evenings w/ roof open. MLB's tastiest girlwatching on any Fri/Sat nite - only thing 'hotter' is brutal June-Sept day games - avoid! Plentiful nearby parking - best value are little known lots due east, between the RR tracks & Washington. Bleachers (or cheap uppers and moving down) are best values; never pay retail for lower decks; discounts abound on ebay, stubhub since the team folded in 2003. Assuming they havent ripped it out to make room for another Team Shop, Baxter's Den(beyond CF), is/was adorable for kids under 5. Buy an ice cream or sushi and slowly stroll around the concourse that circumvents the field to peoplewatch and appreciate the entire facility.
Pros: Clean, comfortable, offsite parking, peoplewatching
Cons: comatose team, typical MLB ripoff, very hot outside
