Need some help guys, I have a child in a wheelchair that wants to go to see a baseball game in The Box. Haven't bought tickets yet, but need to know how the stadium is set up for wheel chairs. We went to an Astros game a few years ago and had to purchase a special ticket for a parent seat next to the wheel chair space. There will be a total of 5 of us going. So I need some advice.

Thanks in advance.

There are 2 elevators just inside of the gate at the Championship Plaza to assist disabled people to the upper ramp where the handicapped seating is located. Just look to the left when you walk in. There are seats for you to sit with your child. Not sure of where you want to sit I just but I wouldn't think it would be a problem for almost any weeknight game regarding tickets.

You are required to sit in the ADA accessible area nearest your ticket purchase. Each area has ADA seating...

Look for Row 17 in one of the Section 200's (Grandstand) in the Ticket Marketplace. You will likely find a couple of tix for a midweek game. You will need to buy two tickets - one for you and one for your child.

With luck, you will find seating close by in the same section for the others in your party.

They will pretty much let you park it along the back row of the front section along the lines (if that makes sense)

or you can elevator up to the standing room only and there are sections lined off.

I kidnapped a friend sorta (pushed his chair from southgate to the stadium) to go to a game last year and we just showed up and walked in and went straight to a spot. It was a midweek game i think, but it wasnt a problem
