    It's so classic and has that cool 50s California look; just something about it.

    Pac Bell seemed to me kind of circus-y and is pretty much like all the other new ballparks aside from being on the water. And the garlic fries are vastly overrated. I still liked it, just didn't love it. All the adulation for Bonds when I was there didn't help matters. :roll:
