I spent a lot of time here!! My parents had season tickets, sitting down behind home plate, behind the huge net. Three rows up!

(37,795 posts)5. The Candlestick I remember from my youth had bleachers
And the happening place to be was in the 90 cents right field bleacher for a Friday night date.
We were always toasty warm as long as we stayed in our sleeping bags, you know, Candlestick summer baseball. Left field general admission offered a little more protection, but the requisite $2.75 was a little pricey for me back in those days. Willie Mays ALWAYS tossed the outfield warm-up ball into the right field bleachers just before the game. I was sad to see the bleaches disappear when they completed the wrap-around reconfiguration for football. Fond memories.
