Reds at Giants - Apr 25
My girlfriend and I are headed to San Fran Apr 24-27 for a vacation, which just so happens to coincide with the Reds visit (pure coincidence!). I got us tickets for the Friday night game. Any RZ regulars live in SF? Recommendations for food at the park? Anybody else attending and want to meet up at some point?

I usually don't buy a lot of food at the ballpark, but the garlic fries, as baseclogger mentioned, are the specialty.

Re: Reds at Giants - Apr 25
The garlic fries are good. They also have a nice beer selection.
Rojo is right to tell you to bundle up. Seriously. Long johns aren't a bad idea for early season night games. I was there last week and it was COLD. Tickets were also very plentiful outside the stadium. I got 18th row tickets on the 1st base side for $30 a piece. I might head down. Really depends on the weather outlook. If you're staying at Union Square it's about a 1 mile walk straight down 3rd to get to the park.

Re: Reds at Giants - Apr 25
Speaking of cold April baseball, I was at the game last night at Wrigley (and will be again tonight.) I guess it's worth risking frostbite to see the Reds on the road, just not when they play like they did last night...
