I’m not a HUGE fan of these colors. It was cool to see on baseball cards, but not necessarily something that looks great full time.

I like the old font in the current blue color scheme.

I’m also a Cardinals fan, and they have one of the best uniforms across sports period.



No doubt they are top 5 in MLB and one of the best across pro sports. The home whites are very clean looking.

They don’t draw well. Tickets sold and butts in seats are way different There is a lot of $$$ in SD so I’m sure they sell plenty of season tickets but actual attendance is around 10k a game


They do draw well and the 10K you throw out is BS. I visited all 5 of the California MLB parks last May and the only ballpark I had to pay face value for a decent ticket was in San Diego. San Diego had a large crowd despite fielding a mediocre team last season.

Wrong again. I live in San Diego and go to a ton of games. You're making assumptions based on the play on the field and how much support the chargers had. Take trip out and see for yourself, this is a great city and you'll have a blast at the game.

I agree with this. I get out to San Diego for work, and I always try and time with baseball.

Always a good crowd. Best microbrews at any Park in the US.

PETCO is amazing. Where else can you get a dog suite?

The area around the stadium has nice pubs/bars/restaurants all within walking distance.

And if by chance you are out at PB, the games are on and watching baseball in that weather while sitting on a roof deck is terrific.

The Padres draw pretty well. They just have the same problem that the Chargers have...especially in division games, they get a shite ton of opposing fans attending. It's easy to understand why, though. Maybe the best ballpark in the league with exceptional concessions and location...and summer weather in SD is tough to beat.

A great plus is that Del Mar race track isn't far away. It's always cool to have a combination horse racing / baseball road trip.

30yrs ago? And got swept once almost twice. Thats a contender to you?

They haven't been to playoffs in like 11yrs. Every year its trust the process 2 or 3 more years the farm team is stacked. Hosmer + Myers got paid now they just chill at Fits jacuzzi

Well, by Cowboys fans' standards...that sounds about right.
