Minor League Baseball…read more Home of fried food, cheap tickets, a racing pork roll mascot and, oh by the way, there is actual baseball going on too. I love this stuff because it's an experience. The promos, the seating choices and every now and then you actually see some good play on the field as well. Each team is a slightly different variation from the next. Our experience here was fairly basic but overall nothing surprised me. We came for a Wednesday game in mid-June and even though all of the premium seating down front was "sold out" (i.e. it's sold to season ticket holders that are rarely there so most nights the seats while sold, go empty) the overall physical attendance was maybe 2000 tops. 101-103 was completely empty the same as 113-115. The place was dead. For a backup plan I chose the firepit seating. Some good and bad here. The good is that even though you are way the heck out past the LF wall, the sightline isn't bad. Regarding the fire pit seats - I. A few of the fire pits didn't work and couldn't be lit or in the case of ours (#5) it took the better part of the top of the 1st for it to finally get going which was good since it was cool and breezy out. II. In principle you don't need tickets for these seats to sit at them. A few of the fire pits went unsold yet magically people were sitting at them all night. Yes, the staff won't light them but they also won't stop you from sitting at them. It really defeats the whole point. I guests next time here if I see an unused seat right behind the plate I'm moving in for the kill. The food we experienced was total trash. Cooked in the fires of hell overdone chicken finger baskets that had various amounts of fries meaning some of the orders had a lot and some barely had any. Total ripoff. What works here are the obvious things. Ticket prices are reasonable, the parking charge is in line with what you pay at most minor league parks and the stadium is small enough that all seats are good seats. Locationally it's also an easy on/off the NJT. Oh right, the baseball. Well, you get what you get for High A ball. A few throwing errors, two pop-ups that were dropped and more of what is killing the sport as a whole with a combined K total for both teams of 20+. All in all it was a good time and a good experience. Was it my favorite minor league park? Not by a longshot but it's good enough and I assume we'll be back in the future.

The game started with a parade of Legion Riders on their motorcycles - impressive. The experience did not disappoint as we were to experience the normal entertainment on and around the field - there was even a game! The Blue Claws lost, however, even though we were able to witness three individual home runs. It was a special night, for sure, as the Blue Claws welcomed their 8,000,000th spectator! I was spectator # 7,900, 949! An overall good experience and an opportunity for families to see some young men playing their hearts out for their chance at a brass ring. Prices are definitely affordable.

Entertainment was provided between innings (e.g. potato sack race, Mascot race, among other activities). Many choices for ballpark foods were offered, and some were even "healthy choices."

Best seats with a view outdoors or in suite. It's very clean and parking is only $5. The mascots were fantastic. Because the stadium is small the interacted with everyone who wanted to meet them. Camera crews were all over the park put kids on the big screen. Lots of on field games and fun for kids. I have only one suggestion on what to avoid, the funnel cake. I had two friends get it. They drop it into a fryer frozen. It is not a normal Funnel cake. It was so hard you couldn't eat it Thank you the suite crew for the hospitality. It really was a wonderful experience.

You can hear the crack of the bat and the chatter from the dugout without straining. Baseball as it should be seen. The Delaware River runs right behind the outfield. On hot nights the breeze rolls in off the water. It cools the air, turns the place into something comfortable when the rest of New Jersey is sweating. That is not something you can engineer. That is geography being kind. Parking is easy. Five dollars. Cash only. Plentiful and close. In a world where stadium parking often feels like extortion, this is practically charity. The food is not just food. It is a catalog of local pride. Case's Pork Roll. Killarney's. Rita's Italian Water Ice. Raccoon Saloon. Alongside these sit Colbie's Southern Fried Chicken and Boomer's BBQ. If none of that calls to you there are still the old standards. Hot dogs. Pretzels. Popcorn. Nachos. The ballpark classics are covered. There is even a picnic area down the left field line for groups who want baseball and burgers in equal measure. The ballpark is easy to get to. Right on Route 29 by the riverfront. Quick access to 29, 129, I-195, and I-295. No mazes. No confusion. A night here is affordable, easy, and close to the event in every sense. Five stars.

Still have not heard back from Rep who asked about my experience!…read more__________________________________________________________________ My wife surprised me with tickets to John's concert to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first time we saw him together at Madison Square Garden. That concert remains one of our favorite memories. Unfortunately, our experience at PNC was the complete opposite. In my 62 years, it was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a live event. When we purchased our tickets, we also reserved four lawn chairs. Upon arriving, we were sent to three different locations to retrieve them. One location was closed, another didn't exist, and the final location in the upper deck--where we apparently should have been directed in the first place--had already run out of chairs. One of the couples with us is in their 70s, and all six of us ended up standing for nearly three hours. Had we known there would be no chairs available despite paying for them, we never would have purchased lawn tickets. To make matters worse, another couple in our group paid to bring all six of us into the Cadillac VIP area, hoping we could at least sit there. Unfortunately, there was still nowhere to sit. One of our 72-year-old guests briefly sat on a storage box containing towels and was immediately told she had to get up. She wanted to leave the concert, but because we all traveled together in one car, she stayed so as not to inconvenience the rest of the group. Beyond the chair issue, we all felt the venue was significantly overcrowded. It created an uncomfortable and, frankly, unsafe atmosphere. Whether or not it actually exceeded capacity, it certainly felt that way, and the concern over what could happen in an emergency added unnecessary stress throughout the evening. In the end, we paid $80 for chairs we never received, $60 for VIP section, spent nearly three hours standing, left with sore backs, and are still talking about how anxious the overcrowding made us feel. What should have been a special anniversary celebration became a very disappointing experience. I'd be happy to speak with you if you'd like to discuss what happened, although I have to admit it would be difficult to say much that was positive about this experience. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

The roads are narrow and driving to the parking area Takes a long time... very expensive too.. had to park a mile away and walk from there.. Seating was narrow.. You cannot move to the left or right and you have to sit stand still. View to the stage was actually OK... seat numbers we're so confusing.. 216 row 1-4 wasn't from 216 . U had to throw 215 and then come down ! It was wierd . All snacks and drinks were super expensive inside... water bottle set for 7$ and a beer for 16$ !!!!! Yes u heard it right ! 16$ ! Absolutely overpriced ! Going in was also such a pain. Security guards don't allow handbags ! Nowhere in the world I have seen handbags not allowed ! And they do t give any valid reason ! We had to throw away any food items (which is ok) but the handbag not allowed was attrocious ! We had a good show though. Loved the concert ! Will never go back to any show here !

Parking for the event was in one section and it was pretty tight but they did have parking assistants directing traffic which was nice. The manner in which the employer tables were arranged around the circular hallway was both smart and cool because job seekers were able to see all employers by simply walking the hallway. The signage for restrooms was confusing as many of them weren't open which was a bit frustrating and it would've been nice if there was a way to purchase or grab bottled water because it was hot inside. The overall experience in / at the arena was pretty middle of the road which is why the rating is 3 stars.

The refreshment stand was made aware of the lack of soap and yet there was no action taken to fill the dispensers. The food prices are extremely high and the food is nothing to brag about.

The concept here is cool, and it has gotten slightly better over the years, but they never finished the place, the walkways are a mess and theres not enough nets. (I've been involved in softball 10+ years with two daughters so we've played everywhere, and the foul balls here are the worst) Plus they have a bunch of kids basically running things and they aren't very well trained. Speeding around in golf carts and doing a half butt job. Food is OK, a little pricey but again, its kids taking orders and serving and cooking and they need more training. Egg sandwiches always have shells in them, burgers are so-so, and i'm not sure they change the cooking oil enough. Plus lots of flies. It's just not a welcoming atmosphere. The bag checks and strip searches (exaggerating a little) and not being able to even bring my own coffee just makes me hate coming here. And for heavens sake how about some scoreboards? $10 entry fee and $8 eggshell sandwich and you cant hang scoreboards?

I was with my sister and nephew who both come here often so I had zero worries. We parked at a small lot which I think was under a bridge of sorts. It was fairly empty and cost less than parking at the stadium. The walk over was under 5 mins. Double score. The Red.Bulls ended up winning over Washington. It was a great game despite the sweltering heat. We were on the first row, to the side of the goalie, but on the opposite side of the home team where all the fun stuff was happening. I noticed during the halftime show that all the fun activities were happening on the other side. Leaving for us was a breeze since we weren't fighting all the other folks exiting. So many cars were honking at the folks cutting them off. The sun had just set as we walked out of the stadium. What a sight to behold.

Thank God I had no problem getting in but I wasn't in general admission . I had seats . I did wish later that I was in general admission for better views and experience . The Merch experience was also pleasant . Better merch inside than the outside one which had a long lines . Inside no lines . Getting there early - no ljnes for food/ drink or bathroom but later it was crazy. The stadium was clean and nice The reason for the 3 stars was that the parking situation and leaving was horrendous . I was stuck in the parking lot for over and hour trying to get out . Other than that area is congested so understandable that there was traffic but the parking lots by the stadium are so poorly managed . Parking lot was gravel/ rocks and areas with flood puddles . And One exit out ? Dangerous and horrendous . One of the reasons why I may never come back to this venue unless I figure out another way that is easier to park and leave . Again I came because of my favorite group was play in here and no where in the area this year.
