12 Times at Coors Field, here’s what I’ve learned

I’ve been to Coors Field maybe a dozen times now, and I’ve basically made it my mission to try different sections every time. Here’s what I’ve learned: If you’re one of those people who dreams of catching a home run - and let’s be real, at Coors that’s actually possible with how many balls fly out - sections 155-160 are your best bet. I’ve seen more foul balls and homers land in that area than anywhere else. But honestly? The 300 level behind home plate is where it’s at for me. Yeah, you’re higher up, but the view of the entire field is perfect, and on a clear day you get those incredible mountain views that make you remember why you love baseball. Someone told me the upper right field corner in the 300s has the absolute best perspective, and after sitting there once, I totally get it. Here’s something most people don’t think about though - if you’re going to a night game, get seats on the first base side. The sunset views are absolutely insane. I took my girlfriend to a game last summer, and she spent half the time taking pictures of the sky instead of watching the game. Can’t even blame her. The altitude definitely makes a difference too. I’ve seen routine fly balls just keep carrying and carrying. Makes every at-bat more exciting when you know anything in the air has a chance. #MLB #Rockies
