Baseball Team and Stadium Review
Recently, I was able to go to the first University of Oregon baseball home game. Let me say that already PK Park is one of the best looking stadiums in college baseball. Sadly, there is no beer garden in place yet, but $2 hotdogs and a sweet view of Autzen make up for it with atmosphere.
The student section is small but seats will always be available at home games. Even though they are temporary stands they are really close along the left field sideline and allow students to get up close when heckling opposing players.
If you want to become a fan, I highly suggest smooth hitting shortstop KC Serna, a Eugene native and first Duck to hit a home run at PK Park. Other notable players are Antony Kreitz and our Ace and future pro, Tyler Anderson.
I must admit one thing pissed me off about PK Park, though. After I caught a foul ball during the game, my first foul ball after hundreds of baseball games, stadium personnel then hunted me down and made me return the ball.
Those hot dogs are gonna cost a lot more when more people start coming to games. I worked at Civic Stadium last summer, and those things don’t get made for free. I was cooking like 500 hot dogs an hour, and it sucked balls.
That being said, I would probably cook hot dogs for pennies at PK Park if I didn’t get in trouble for cooking them while I stealing beer, smoking cigs, and eating food off of the grill.
Next ball you catch chuck it in some far away bushes and retrieve it later.
Hey Drew, you’re joking right? $2.00 dogs? Shit Bro they are $4.50 at Mac Court! Like the old Springfield saying…”If there’s grass on the field, PLAY BALL”
I’m there.
What the hell? It’s tradition to keep foul balls.
Still beats the $8 (!!!!) beer at PGE Park.
Drew, I little closer investigating and you woulda found the outrageously prices ($6 a bottle) beer over in the tents in right field
