Team store closest to stadium???
Forgive a simple question from an outta town fan--bringing my little girl in for opening day. I literally haven't been to a game in Cincy in over 30 years, so I need to know where to go to out fit her up with plenty of souvenirs....is there a team store outside the stadium (or is it inside)? Is there a better place close by? How about a website that specializes in Reds gear?? Thanks for any help!

There's the one at the Reds Hall of Fame (which is just outside the stadium) - been a couple of years since I've been there but it had a huge selection of gear.

If you can head a few blocks south to Fourth Street, Koch's is great.

There are also licensed vendors outside the stadium along the sidewalks.

Sears and Meijers have some good stuff and cheaper. I also agree with spending that extra $ at the ballpark is sometimes worth it.

If your heading down on Opening Day I probably would hit up Koch's first. The team store will be a mad house and Koch's will be less busy. If you can't find what you want at Koch's then by all means hit up the team store which is right outside of the stadium.

Online is easier and cheaper, just be wary of sites that claim they have "official" gear, but sell you knock-offs. If it seems too good to be true, it's probably not.
Amazon has some decent deals on 59Fifty hats (same ones the players wear). You'll spend upwards of $40 at the stadium for one. |
