Petco Park REVIEW San Diego Padres 

I’m from San Diego and I can’t wait for baseball season

As a soccer fan - not knowing anything about baseball - from Germany, I saw 2 games at Petco on a once in a lifetime trip visiting family in SD last year. I absolutly loved it! And I miss it!! Great Video!

I work at a restaurant a block from the stadium, I really take it for granted now but I really can't complain. went to a game with a friend who's not even a huge baseball fan but the vibe inside can't be beat and he loved it

Really amazing food and beer. I was at the dodgers playoff game this year when they eliminated the dodgers. Amazing experience.

Lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! Aww thanks for the shoutout 😅 Loved the vid as always glad you two had a fantastic time

As a 25 years season ticket holder with the Padres, and a peanut vendor while in High School at the old Jack Murphy Stadium (later Qualcomm), Petco is the number one ballpark of all the MLB ballparks that I have attended. Design, food, sight-lines, location, weather, fans, surrounding vibe and fun, huge video score board, media, entertainment, it all adds up to the best baseball experience beyond the Padres themselves. I rate the SF Giants and Pitts Pirates parks as my #2&3, with Wrigley and Fenway as the baseball history buff nirvana locations. The newer Yankee stadium was only Ok, as old Yankee stadium while dated had far more charm and the Mets new park nice, but not a lot around it. Coors field and Camden yards are very cool parks and from the early design generation of today’s newer parks. Coors was cool as it had a lot to do around it in the LoDo area of Denver. Shout out to Safeco in Seattle as another new gen park that was well done. The Oakland colosseum is the absolutely the worst ballpark as I think one of the last multiuser stadiums still around as the Big A in Anaheim was remodeled to an all baseball layout years back and made it a decent ballpark vs. the the old stadium layout they shared with the Rams. Chavez Ravine is a historic park to have a Dodger dog in, and to be able to once upon a time listen to Vin Scully call the game, but just cannot hold a candle to the newer generation stadiums that have wide aisles, open plazas, and much more modern amenities. The old candlestick ballpark in SF was one of the coldest locations to watch a ball game in, especially with the chain link centerfield fence open to the very cold bay winds that blew into the park that had to cost Willis Mays 100 HR’s playing there. Well that my thought of the ballparks I have experience and Petco is my #1!

That is a stunning ballpark! I really dig the open layout in the concourse. The bacon wrapped glizzy looked very tasty too lol

I grew up there as a kid and went to Minor League baseball. Got to see the Padres first MLB series with the Astros in 1969

LETS GO PADRES. I grew up in San Diego . I went to opening day in 1969 . I was 9 years old . I bleed PADRES. Baseball . P.s I used to be a San Diego Chargers fan too. But I don’t follow teams to move to LA. P. S . Beat LA.

This my hometown! Great video, If you ever come back to San Diego, let’s collab!

Not one bad seat in the house. Great view from any seat 😎

Did a tour of Petco in 2018 when visiting America (From Australia) what an awesome stadium! and city....if I was to move anywhere in the world it would be San Diego!

The Atmosphere is even crazier now, almost every game has been sold out

From San Diego and it sucks to travel to other cities cuz pretty much every other stadium experience is worse than petco🤣 Whether is always great and super accessible

Great Video of a Fantastic Ballpark. As a San Diego Padres fan, I'm a bit bias, BUT when it first opened in 2004, I wasn't as bully on it. I thought it was a bit sterile and too clean, but it has a lived in feel now that is awesome. I have been to 26 other new and old MLB parks around the country, and it really is one of the best. I will be watching more of your videos!

Baseball fan from Sweden here. Petco Park is in every aspect a GREAT baseball park, from location to architectural design. Great atmosphere and cool, friendly people. Definitely on my Top 3 list of the American baseball parks I've visited.

Thanks for the overview. Hoping to go to my first game at Petco in the next couple of weeks and this video was timely for my planning.

This ballpark is incredible

The BEST ballpark!!

Thanks!

San Diego is a world class city.

It is the first video I see on this channel, which has been to my liking. Hopefully soon you will be encouraged to visit the stadiums in Mexico; to the 18 baseball parks of the Mexican Baseball League (which is the summer circuit) and to the 10 parks of the ARCO Mexicana Del Pacífico League (which is the winter circuit), I'm sure you can get a pleasant surprise.

i was trying to look for on site video review so i can double confirm the seating areas bc im going to a concert in petco park with my friend in june!!!! man i need to go here on an empty day, i didnt know there was so much here i never had the chance to visit somehow despite being born here!! love from san diego 💖💖💖💖

I just had a baby so I’m kinda stuck in the house and have just been sitting on the couch watching your channel all day on my 75 inch tv. Have a sub

my friend's condo is on left field... watch a lot of home games from there

going in a month so hyped

San Diegan here, we do love our ballpark. Go Dads! (many if us do refer to them that way). Glad you enjoyed your stay. The car parking is not as bad as you think. There are a number of lots spread out around the park and, depending on the day, you can even find street parking a walkable distance from the park. I would not recommend that if you are not a local and know the streets. There is also a whole different larger trolley station on the other side of the park that services other trolley lines depending on where you are coming from.

Great video, I’ll be travelling from Toronto in April to see the Blue Jays and am excited about visiting this beautiful ballpark.

Taking my daughter for her 4th birthday this Monday July 24th. They will be hosting the Pittsburgh pirates - my hometown team 🎉 can’t wait it’s gonna be a blast .. thanks for your video, definitely gave me some pointers of what to do and look for at the game! 😅

How does this guy not have more subs he’s amazing

If you think I’m gonna spend 16 minutes of my life watching a single stadium review your absolutely right

I went to Petco Park in April 2022 when the Dodgers were in town. Saw the Padres walk off unfortunately lol. But I have to admit, Petco Park is definitely one of the best stadiums in MLB history. The only flack I give them is where it's located in downtown. That's it.

Also a lot of the beers you can purchase at the ball park are all from local breweries like Coronado Ballast point ale smith I might be wrong correct me if I’m wrong but I also believe that the padres are the only team in the mlb to have connection to the military

We need more baseball park like this. U have centerfield where u being your family or friends. 4 just $10 dollar. Some of the owners such in 2 this

For my money, it is the best ballpark in California. Oracle is pretty good too but Petco edges is out in both aesthetics and food/beer offerings.

Absolutely beautiful ballpark! My now favourite team in the nl west ! Being in canada of course the blue jays is my favourite team and i been to rogers centre couple of times however this park is on my top place to visit ! Im kinda new to baseball im still learning but my god that stadium is gorgeous!!!!

Man it's late night and I want me one of them bacon Tijuana dogs so bad 🌭 Petco is definitely up there on ball park food 😋

Actually in total it can fit up to 46,000 even it has done that on multiple occasions and I've been to many games where it has

Petco is gunna go nuts soon only abt a month left till opening day💛🤎

6:04 very top right, didn’t know my school was big enough to get up there

at this point hecklers running onto the field is a part of the culture here hahaha - East County San Diego native

I live in San Diego and I am a Padres fan. I've been to a few hundred Padres games at The Murph and Petco Stadium. Born in the sixties and will die here apparently. It sure would be nice if just ONE Major League San Diego Sports team would step up and win the big ONE. It's always great to live here unless you're a sports fan.

I love my Braves stadium but I really like San Diego and San Francisco’s parks

Not only did you see them doing the wave, the wave was conceived here in San Diego!

I live in SD and I love Petco Park. Just one question as this is my first time watching one of your videos, what is your favorite team?

Those city connect jerseys are real divisive among padres fans, you either love it or hate it

#1

As someone who grew up in Coronado, I can honestly say that The "Murph" back in the day was much better. It was great in the 70's and 80's and NO it was NOT far from downtown.. 10 or 15 minutes and people loved it!!

You should do really well..goodluck

They are called TJ dogs

The Spanish didn’t find anything as they were native Americans already here

99% hate those salsa looking jerseys. dont lie like that

It's not the gas lamp quarter station this is the imperial station gas lamp has nothing to do with the imperial area just FYI

Now you have the curse of best team in baseball...good luck ....go Dodgers

So much for being the American pastime. They will not accept the legal tender of the United States. No dollars allowed!!

It’s a nice stadium but let’s not overlook the homeless issue in and around the stadium vicinity. I mean safety is now a major concern.

Also known as Dodgers Stadium South

It's Top Ten. It's not #1.

Petco Park is truly a Top 3 Stadium.
