March 3, 201610 yr Looks like they are adding a new rooftop bar. This will be in the left field corner, upstairs. Great American Ball Park introduces new rooftop patio, bar | Local News - WLWT Home Nice addition for the fans. Sounds like a $15 ticket gets you in the game and one drink at the bar. I'd maybe call that a steal.
March 3, 201610 yr Author Also, I've heard rumors that you might be able to find 16 ounce cans of Rhinegeist Truth in the Grab and Go stations throughout the park. Wish they'd have us carry some in our bins, but doubt that ever happens.
March 3, 201610 yr Sounds cool -- GABP has made some really nice additions the past couple seasons. **Insert Post about how it's a shame nobody will be there to use the new amenities **
March 3, 201610 yr **Insert Post about how it's a shame nobody will be there to use the new amenities ** Anything and everything to get your mind off the product on the field, eh? There it is...Took a few more hours than I thought.
March 4, 201610 yr Good idea if you ask me. If people think that all of the people who attend major league baseball games are fans of the game they better wake up. Go to a game some time and walk around the park. It's just another social event for a growing number of people at the game. They could remove seats in a lot of areas in the park, put in these same type things and the seats wouldn't be missed at most games.
March 4, 201610 yr I'm a huge baseball fan. That being said, unless they're really nice seats, I'd much rather stand either in RF by the Bow Tie Bar, or behind home plate and watch the game. Also enjoy walking around the stadium and taking in a few innings from a couple different vantage points. Think this is a great idea, and would love to see them put a few more areas like it in.

They will never do it, but I think it would be cool if they removed like 25% or half of the bleachers and had something like this out there.

I pay the $7-$10 minimum to get in and watch the game from various vantage points as well and walk around, after the 6th, ushers usually let you sit where you want if you want to sit. Hate being tied down to sitting because of the price of tickets,as well as not being able to control who sits behind you or in front of you, which in most instances is up and down kids or people that have had a few too many to drink. There's too much to take in at a ball park to just plant yourself for 3 hours
March 4, 201610 yr A co worker and I will take half days to go to those midweek afternoon games. Usually can get a front few rows sun/moon deck ticket off Stubhub for $10
March 4, 201610 yr I'm gonna get crucified for this but here goes. More places in a BASEBALL stadium to get lubed up? Just want I want to experience, even more idiots who can't handle their adult bevs to deal with while I'm trying to enjoy a BASEBALL game. If you want a social suds club, go to the bar and watch it on TV and you can F-bomb yourselves silly. OK, had my say and am ready for you kids to hammer me, I opened the door.
March 4, 201610 yr All kidding aside I get what you are saying, but I've never really encountered a problem like that at baseball games. Mainly just guys yelling who have no idea what they are talking about.
