Ok, from my last few posts you might have thought this was only a fashion blog.. Wellll I am here to tell you that is farrrrr from correct! Duh, I want to blog my clothes/sales because I think it's so much easier for other people to shop bloggers "looks" (why can't we just call it an outfit) because who the hell has time to find their own outfits and google upcoming sales. However, I have so much more to say than just a Jcrew sale and what face wash I use at night. Just a heads up once I get situated and in a routine I promise I will start blasting you with way more life hacks, fitness tips, movies, home decor, sports and more (I'm sure you guys are at the edge of your seat, just waiting)!
Anyways, to now talk about why I am really here! If you know me you know ( I am probably going to say this a lot, bear with me because I have some new followers.. and no i'm not talking about my mom), me and my boyfriend love taking trips to new cities to see sporting events at different stadiums. As you know I'm a pretty big Boston fan (Red Sox, Patriots, Bruins, Celtics) and he and my dad are on a completely different level of Boston fandom (some would say its obsessive, others would call it Bostonian nature). Well I figured I would round up best/worst foods, best/worst drinks, bars, hotels and whatever else you guys are interested in about stadiums/cities I have gone to!
Every time we go somewhere new we usually spend a decent amount of time figuring out what bars to pregame at, what food/drinks the stadium is known for (for instance Fenway Park is known for the Fenway Frank.. it's a hot dog FYI), nightlife, etc.
To start off I wanted to mention one of my all time favorite stadiums......
Petco Park, home of the San Diego Padres
I will start off by saying if you love Mexican food you will die when you try the queso, salsa & fish tacos at Miguel's Cocina (located field level #104). The picture below doesn't even do them justice, and unfortunately we ate the tacos before I could take a picture! The salsa, queso and chips are all freshly made with real ingredients, instead of the store bought or the squeeze cheese you get at other stadiums.
As for the stadium they have a gorgeous view of the city line dead center of their outfield, their bleacher seats (outfield seats) actually have a small part of beach sand right before the first row of the seats, the stadium is extremely clean (newer stadium), and they also have a massive hill that sits right behind the bleacher seats (you can actually buy tickets to enter the park and sit on the hill instead of buying actual stadium seat tickets). Overall, probably one of my favorite stadiums I have ever been to!
Side Note: Please feel free to share your favorite stadiums with me (including food/drinks, where to sit, what bars to pregame at)! Jake and I are trying to get to one new stadium a year, so we are always trying to find the best cities to visit (Chicago is absolutely next on our list)!
