    Fireworks after the game
    Wendy S.

    Great time at the ballpark! Very family friendly atmosphere with lots of fun activities and promos throughout the game. We got "Suite Seats" which included a buffet of hamburgers & hotdogs along with tabs which can be redeemed for beer, ice cream, and even a hat! What a deal! Plus fireworks at the end of the night. Oh and don't forget the high quality college baseball play! Nice way to spend a summer evening!

    My brother and I attended the 11am game today. My brother is a regular but this was my first visit to the ball park. Really nice. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Ticket prices were very reasonable and we upgraded to the 7 inning food plan. Burgers and grilled chicken were good, also took down a lot of watermelon. Plus all the bottled water you can drink. The growlers lost in extra innings but it was a great outing with my bro. Highly recommend for families or friends.

    8/20/19 I have been to Kalamazoo Growlers for my work for the last two years. We have been featured as Nonprofit of the Night. It's a great thing they do for Nonprofits. They give money back for each ticket sold in a certain area and there is a Miracle Minute that happens at the end of the 3rd inning which allows people to donate a dollar or more for these Nonprofits. But anyway, I went on the 20th to join a corporate business that I partner with and received a ticket from them. We were able to sit close to the field and enjoy the meals and drinks. It was a fun time. Atmosphere: Always a fun time. I love the games they play on the field and the interns dancing. They always involve the crowd. Cost: Tickets are not that expensive and most of the time they do packages. Also, kids' tickets include hats most of the time, which I think is cool. Overall: I will give them 5 stars. I will be back for work and for fun!

    Great company outing! We reserved the lower Bear Cave for our Company's summer picnic/outing. This year's change of activity did not disappoint! Out tickets included the entire lower level, 7 alcohol drink tickets, all the water and soda you wanted and all the food we could eat from the buffet inside the Bear Cave. Wine was 2 tickets, Bell's beer was 2 tickets and Miller Lite was 1 ticket. The Buffet included: Chicken salad, Hot Dogs, BBQ Meatballs, Mac & Cheese, Mashed Potatoes and a salad bar with salad, potato salad, watermelon and lots of toppings for your salad. Dessert were brownies and Blondie bars. The Growlers warm-up right in front of the Bear Cave. The players come over and give high-fives and fist bumps to the kids. The games was very close and got exciting near the end. The Growlers won the game. Between the innings the marketing staff was very interactive with lots of games for kids and adults. They were very fun to watch. Everyone in our party agreed we should do this again next year! Thank you Growlers for a wonderful night out.

    It makes a cheap night out with $10 tickets and free parking. Concessions are the price you would expect to pay in a ball park.

    We love visiting the smaller baseball stadiums, especially in Michigan. The LCMU is definitely on…read moreour list of best ballparks in that category. First, easy to order our tickets and parking pass online, especially since I have the MLB app on my phone, that was a bit of luck. We even got a small discount, $22 instead of $24.50, per ticket (we sat in the section right behind home plate). And no surcharge!!! The ballpark is cashless, so be prepared to use your phone or plastic for everything. I am currently experiencing issues with my knees, so what a nice surprise to see they have a place to drop off the mobility challenged very close to the elevator side entrance. Otherwise, lots of steps or a very long ramp are the other options. There was also special parking for us, not handicapped, I don't have a sticker, so that was a huge plus. The ballpark is beautifully designed, with thick cushioned seats! What a lovely surprise. I usually travel with a portable cushion or a thick blanket I can fold up to use as a cushion. Very comfy seats. The concessions offered some unique items, like a Dubai chocolate and strawberry sundae, which was yummy, though a bit pricey at $12.50, but you get that cute thick plastic baseball cap bowl (which we threw away, so I do wish they had a paper option). Burgers, dogs, soft pretzels, corndogs, and fries, are some of the regular fare we see at most of these parks though. Boozy smoothies were also a unique item, though we didn't try one this time. Offered sans booze as well. Also, they have a roving concessions person with the basics, like cotton candy, peanuts, popcorn, bottled water, beer and other na beverages. So while the sundae was excellent, my foot long corndog was lukewarm. But hubby loved his soft pretzel. So a mix of feelings about the food we had. Microbrewery beer was very good though. So while I loved almost everything about this park, there was one big negative. The scoreboard. They have a big fancy digital board that displays each players' stats, which we love, but they use an old school scoreboard to display the score, balls, strikes and outs. No biggie normally, but the lights indicating the balls, strikes and outs, were not working! Someone manually changed the runs, but that was it. If you turned away for anything, you missed where things stood. I had to pull up the game on my phone to be able to tell where things stood, it was annoying. Still, if that doesn't bother you, ha-ha, you can disregard this part of my review. Also, no pitch speed display, something we like to see. Friendly staffers everywhere, another huge plus. It's really a great stadium, except for the food inconsistency (but it is ballpark food, so my expectations were on the low end anyway), and the scoreboard issues. Great for families and the mobility impaired. Fireworks after Saturday night games too, so cool. Worth the two hour drive, easily, in my opinion.

    It has been years since we came to a game as a family and not part of a large group in the Pepsi…read moreStadium Suite. We came on a Tuesday night, and it happened to be a night they were passing out bobbleheads to the first 1,000 people - our kids thought they were the coolest! There was a line of people waiting to get in at gate opening (5:15pm) but it moved quickly. Once inside we found our seats and we grabbed some food from one of the main concessions stands. They have a fairly big menu, so not just hot dogs. We got a corn dog, three hot dogs, a large fries and two sodas and it came to 61.80 with tip. The food was your standard stadium food - no complaints. We did also get two popcorns, a large cotton candy, and two bottles of water for 41.93 with tax. Here are my main reason for 5 stars: CUSTOMER SERVICE & HOSPITALITY. I was literally so impressed! When we got to our seats with our food, our 5-year-old knocked over our full (not even a sip out of it yet) soda. An employee, no idea his job title, saw what happened and asked us what it was so he could replace it for us, and he did. Totally unexpected and very much appreciated! Also, when my kiddos were standing near where the players were practicing before the game, there was a group of older kids and adults huddled around trying to get autographs. My kids were a little intimidated, so they stayed to the side. Another WC employee noticed this and was able to get a ball and toss it over to my boys. They were elated! A small act that made a huge impact. They were so excited. Our seats happened to be the first row to the left of the WC dug out (awesome seats!) and during the game a player stuck his head around the corner and saw my kids and tossed them another ball. They were on cloud nine! The whole experience at the game was impressive. Lots of fun things to keep us and the kids entertained during lulls in the game. Playground and inflatables for the kids, we took advantage before the game started. Lots of food options, although, we didn't get a chance to try out any of the other options. Lots of local beer options, too! Overall, just a fun night that my kids won't soon forget. We are looking forward to another family outing!

    It's so cool to live in a city with some fun sports teams. Griffins hockey is a favorite and I've…read morebeen going to games since I moved to Grand Rapids over 10 years ago. Friday nights are a big draw as they have $2 beer and $2 hot dogs for part of the game. I recently went to the opening weekend on a Saturday and had a bit of sticker shock at the regular drink prices... I'm talking $16 for a White Claw, which was bonkers. Tallboy cans of Bud Light were $12 and a cup of Bud Light was $11. And that's just domestic beer - if you want anything craft, expect to pay even more. Whoa! I guess I'll be sticking to Friday nights. There are plenty of food options at the arena and tons of restaurants within walking distance from Van Andel if you want to grab dinner before a game. That said, games are super fun and tickets themselves are typically pretty reasonable, $17-$30 or $50 for VIP glass right up by the action. You can get discounts for large groups and they offer suites and other upgraded seating options. The seats themselves are a bit of a squeeze, but the view is pretty good no matter where you sit. Each season there are fun promotions on different nights, like Star Wars night, giveaways for the first [x] number of fans, post-game skate events, and more. The entertainment between periods is always entertaining (bubble soccer on ice is my favorite), and the vibe at games is fun and the crowd usually has great energy. Here's to a great season, let's #GoGRG!

    I love the Griffins! It is such an inexpensive thing to go do that is fun for the whole family!…read moreFrom the announcer to the mascots it's a blast! The fans are electric and the energy is impressive for being a minor league (AHL) team. A lot of pride when it comes to Grand Rapids and this team and you can feel it. They keep you entertained the whole time and plenty of T-shirts and hotdogs being launched In the air! The announcer (Eric Zane) keeps the place electric and is one of the best announcers I've seen going to live sporting events! This truly is a special place! The only down side is the expensive food and beer so look out for $2 hotdogs and $2 beer nights!! GO GRIFFINS!

    Grand Rapids Gold is our local NBA G League team, affiliated with the Denver Nuggets. I honestly…read moredon't really understand how these affiliations work, but I like going to sporting events because they usually have a fun atmosphere and are something interesting to do. Nate and I recently attended our first ever Gold game and had a blast. I'm really glad they're playing at the Van Andel Arena now. We opted to buy tickets at the arena right before the game, which saved a bit on fees but still had to pay at least one "processing" fee. The line also took quite a bit of time to get through. We got two lower bowl seats for $35 total. The crowd was a little sparse but we were seated by some families that were having a good time. Only a handful of the concession stands were open during the game, so the lines were a little long, but I didn't mind. The game itself was great even though the Gold lost. The energy was fun and I really liked the drum line. It was Star Wars night, so it was fun to see all the kids with lightsabers and some characters walking around. I think they are really trying to get attendance up at these games, and I'm interested in going more often. Their home games are usually on Thursdays or other weekdays. They have a Sunday deal where you can get four tickets and a $20 concessions voucher for $50, so it could be a fun outing for friends or family. Thursday evening games they do $2 beer and $2 hot dogs.

    The Grand Rapids Gold begin their first season as the "Grand Rapids Gold" this coming season,…read more2021-22. However, this franchise has been around since the 2006-07 season. Then, the Gold were known as the Anaheim Arsenal of Anaheim, California. The Arsenal were part of the NBA G League (then known as the D-League) expansion in 2006 that saw the first season where teams were split into divisions. Since then, the Arsenal (2006-2009) have moved to Springfield, Massachusetts (Springfield Armor, 2009-2014), and Grand Rapids, Michigan (Grand Rapids Drive, 2014-2021). Last month (July 2021), it was announced that the Grand Rapids team was changing its name from Drive to Gold to align with the Denver Nuggets. The Gold are now the Nuggets' NBA G League affiliate after the Detroit Pistons' acquisition of the Northern Arizona Suns from the Phoenix Suns. The Pistons moved the Northern Arizona Suns to Detroit and renamed the team the "Motor City Cruise." Like the Gold, the Cruise's first season will be this coming season, 2021-22. The Drive were previously the Pistons' affiliate. Big news to come out in recent days is the hiring of 2011 NBA champion and 2009 NBA Sixth Man of the Year Jason Terry to be the Gold's new head coach beginning with the 2021-22 season. I remember Terry from his days on the Arizona college basketball team that won the 1997 NCAA championship and when he played for the Atlanta Hawks (1999-2004). He retired as a player from the NBA after the 2017-18 season and worked as an assistant general manager for the Texas Legends in the G League in 2019. Some notable players who have played for this franchise include former North Carolina Tar Heel and NBA veteran Reggie Bullock, pro basketball journeyman Jordan Crawford, former 20-PPG Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets legend Kammeon Holsey, nine-year NBA vet Brandon Jennings, former Duke Blue Devil and 2016 NBA champion with the Cleveland Cavaliers Dahntay Jones, another former Dukie and 2017 ACC Tournament MVP Luke Kennard, and 2009 SEC Player of the Year and eight-year NBA vet Marcus Thornton. The Gold currently play in the 5,000-seat DeltaPlex Arena in Walker, a suburb of Grand Rapids. Convenient on-site paid parking is available at the DeltaPlex.
