Parking $50 minimum Food RIP OFF…read more Snapdragon Stadium should be one of the best places in San Diego to watch soccer. The stadium itself is beautiful. The grounds, surrounding park areas, and overall design are fantastic. The seating is great, the sightlines are excellent, and the atmosphere during a San Diego FC match is genuinely fun. The fans bring energy and the venue has all the ingredients to be a top-tier experience. Unfortunately, the entire experience gets ruined by the absolutely outrageous cost of food, drinks, and parking. This is an MLS game, not the Super Bowl. Yet the prices inside the stadium make it feel like you're attending a once-in-a-lifetime championship event. If you're trying to build a strong fan base, especially among families, this pricing strategy makes absolutely no sense. A family should not feel like they're taking out a second mortgage just to buy a couple hot dogs and drinks during a regular weekend match. The result is obvious when you look around the stadium -- there are empty seats everywhere. This place should be packed and turning people away. Instead, many fans simply choose not to come because the basics are priced so ridiculously high. Parking is another problem entirely. The contract must of been one of those Godfather signatures, "They were made an offer they couldn't refuse," because the prices are completely out of control, and the way it's communicated is even worse. There is almost no clear signage anywhere directing you to lots or showing prices ahead of time. You either have to look it up online beforehand or find out the price when you're already pulling up to someone taking your credit card. Suddenly you're being charged $50 for the Orange Lot with no prior warning. That's not just expensive, it feels deceptive. Then there's the food itself. On top of the extreme pricing, some of the portion sizes are laughable. The sandwiches we received for our family were tiny for what they cost. Paying premium prices for underwhelming portions just adds insult to injury. Until this pricing model changes, I will not be coming back to another game. For anyone thinking about attending: Take the trolley, eat before you go, or plan to eat afterward. Do not plan to spend money inside the stadium unless you enjoy feeling like you've been ripped off. This venue could easily become one of the best soccer experiences in the country -- but right now, the greed around food, drinks, and parking is driving fans away. Family day this weekend and there were just empty seats, there were empty rows and sections.

True, they give great giveaways here and there, but the theme nights absolutely suck most of the time. San Diego is an inclusive city with a variety of people, it's time to get with the times! I'm sick and tired of this team's marketing squad only appealing to old, crusty, prejudiced vets. I really wish the team would listen to the requests of the fans on social media. This is not Orange County, we don't have time for "Karens" here, c'mon people! It's bad enough we can't get butts in seats because we always lose. It's time to welcome ALL fans! Sometimes I don't feel welcomed. As for the good, I LOVE this team! It's a ragtag group of players who are full of personality each season. However, I don't think the ownership gives each crew the proper resources to be successful. I see hints of victory each game, where do we go wrong? Coaching? Goaltending? Who knows! It's cool to see the upcoming Ducks take flight here in SD, I always love the games. Therefore, it's time for the rest of the organization's kinks to be worked out if we want more fans to join us. TIPS: The Gulls lager is amazing! I highly recommend it! Also, tickets are cheap for college students during midweek games. Bring your college ID for $15 College Night tickets!

Rumor is that this section is easy to snag a good deal because it appears to an expensive ticket, but it's actually a pretty good value with everything that's included, especially compared to what season ticket holders actually paid. The view is great as you are situated on the suite level along the third base line, although you cannot see the main Jumbotron. There are still other screens to look at and they had TVs with the broadcast on. Seating is varied in type. I was at a high top table, which was comfortable. Other chairs were standard stadium chairs but with extra padding, while the high end seating were nice looking oversized chairs situated with clear glass in front of them. The menu apparently rotates, but on my night there they served foot long hotdogs, fully loaded mini hotdogs, a nacho bar, pretzel bites with cheese and mustard dipping sauces, cookies, chicken caesar wraps, and salads. There were also areas with grab and go chips, Cracker Jack, boxes of popcorn, and other goodies. All non-alcoholic drinks are free, and you can buy alcohol at a dedicated bar in the club. There were also three dedicated bathrooms that are gender-neutral, but there was still a line between innings. Overall this was a great experience and I felt like a good value for the price I paid. If the suites are first class, then this is just a step below--call it premium economy. Give it a shot!

He knew I would not be up for a baseball game in the hot and humid weather we have been having. This was perfect because we got to sit in the shade the entire time but also in comfy seats! Before hand we experienced some good eats with great views of the waterfront and the Coronado Bridge. There was enough breeze to cool us down but it did get warm. They had domestic and premium beer available. They had a wonderful breakfast sandwich station made fresh for you. On the other side there were serving trays with carnitas and Jalapeño poppers. Off to the side were fixings to make your own Nachos. Or you can order off their mini menu. All included except for the alcoholic drinks. Chips, popcorn, bottled water, juice, bowls of fruit. Choices! Our server was outstanding. I don't remember how to spell his long name, it began with a J! He wore eclectic glasses and had a great personality. We snacked so much we dozed off a couple of times in the comfy seats! What a lovely time, and the Padres won!!!

This year (2014) was my first time attending this festival. I'm making it yelp official by…read moredeclaring that I'm going to be attending this event annually! Parking: Don't drive! I don't recommend anyone planning to be DD to go or for you to have a DD. It's so much fun since this is an all you can drink, i mean... try.., event to not have to worry about driving. Use Uber, Lyft, or taxi it like us! or get dropped off if you have an awesome friend like that. But... if you did insist on bringing a car, the parking lots nearby ranged from $10 - $13 to park for 8 hours+ I believe. It cost the four of us $25 to get to the festival from La Jolla. Entry: We got there at 2, when it started, and waited in line for about 20 minutes to get in. It was smooth getting in. We were given plastic cups though because the Port Authorities didn't want the festival to hand out glass cups to soon-to-be drunkies. But, to be honest, the "glass" cups given to us after the festival were verrrrrrry disappointing. BEEEEEERS: Oh man. I was expecting the amount of beer options there were here. San Diego has one of the most microbreweries in the nation. I wish they had more small buckets or water station though so you can cleanse your cup and your palette. Food: Please get more food! I know we're here to drink beer but I would've been so down to buy snacks, pretzels, fooood, or something! We only saw 5 - 6 food option, and one taco place sold out an hour before closing :( Atmosphere: So awesome! We met so many nice people. I had no expectations on what kind of crowd this festival will attract. This is definitely not the college, let's get shit-faced type of atmosphere, which is awesomeeeeee! Price: Around $40 for 3 hours of all the beers you can try. GREAT :) Also, there weren't very long lines in any of the tables so don't worry about wasting your time with that! Venue: The weather was perfect which made the venue even MORE perfect. It is right by the water and there's a mixture of indoor and outdoor spaces. It is so spacious that you won't feel like people are constantly bumping it to you so don't worry if you think you'll get cluster-phobic. Come again? YES... obviously! TIP: Make pretzel necklaces! Look it up on google. It is such a GENIUS idea that I am going to be so pumped with my huge tasty pretzel necklace next year.
