The Inside Scoop by our Local Expert

Having recently opened in 2000, AT&T Park in San Francisco, CA, is the home of the San Francisco Giants Major League Baseball team. As such, the open-air baseball park has played witness to several monumental moments in sports history, including Barry Bonds' 500th, 600th, and 700th career home runs. With its location right next to the San Francisco Bay, the park is a magnet for canoeists and boat rowers looking to catch a stray home run, or as they're known here, a “splash hit.”Because of its relatively recent construction, AT&T Park offers a number of modern features and a seating capacity of 41,503, as well as several luxury suites from which fans can watch the game while enjoying such perks as room service. Behind left field is an impressive 80-foot Coca-Cola bottle that features playground slides for children. The bottle presides over a miniaturized AT&T Park where children get to have a taste of the big leagues.Even when AT&T Park isn't serving as home field to the San Francisco Giants, it's still as busy as can be. In addition to the many musical events that are held there, AT&T Park also plays host to visitors who get to take guided tours amongst the seats and staff-only areas such as the press box, dugouts, and indoor batting cages.
