Coors Field| Must Do

Snap a photo with “the player” and the clock.

Oddly, the Rockies don’t have any statues of their own players. Instead, they have a generic baseball player standing outside of the home plate gate. While “The Player” isn’t a depiction of anyone in particular, the Rockies added it in 2005 to commemorate Branch Rickey. Rickey was a past GM and President of the LA Dodgers and is most known for signing Jackie Robinson. The statue makes for a great photo opp, especially if you can also frame up the analog clock sitting atop the gate.

The Rooftop

The Rooftop is one of the coolest social concepts in Major League Baseball. It offers a full bar with specialty drinks, lawn games, and great views of downtown and the mountains. Prior to the start of the game, the Rooftop runs a happy hour with $3 Coors Lights. This area is open to all fans and doesn’t require a special ticket for entry. However, the Rockies do sell Rooftop tickets for general admission in sections 310-314. Those tickets are $15 and you’ll get $6 in concession or merchandise credit. That’s a great deal! Just keep in mind that the Rooftop is literally a mile above sea level, and can feel far from the field. If you’re interested in the baseball game that’s being played below, this will be more of a novelty spot for you, since the atmosphere can be pretty partyish.

Watch for The Fountains

In center field, you’ll see 7 fountains that shoot water nearly 40 feet in the air. They go off at the beginning of the game, every time a Rockies player hits a home run, and during the 7th inning stretch. The area surrounding the fountains is also beautifully landscaped with trees and plants native to Colorado. The visitors bullpen is open to the fountain and landscaped area, which is completely unique to the MLB. Watch the video below. If you didn’t know Fernando Rodney was an MLB pitcher, you’d swear he was out for a hike somewhere in Colorado.

Sit in the Purple Seats

There’s a reason Denver is nicknamed the “Mile High City”. In the 300 level, you’ll see a row of purple seats spanning the entire seating area. The purple line marks a mile above sea level. The purple seats are definitely “up there”. There are only about 5 rows of seats that are actually higher than them. It’s a pretty cool photo opp though, so it may be worth the hike.

Coors Field | Transportation and Parking

The official lots at Coors Field are relatively cheap compared to other ballparks. Still, there are better options available nearby. Take some time to research your parking plan before you head to the game. To take some of the stress out of gameday, we recommend reserving a spot early, or planning on public transportation.

Official Coors Field Lots

The official Rockies lots are actually run by another company, Central Parking Systems. There are three lots — A, B, and C, which all open 2.5 hours before first pitch and do not allow tailgating. Lot A costs $19 while B and C are $17. Cash and credit are both accepted on game day, or you can reserve a spot ahead of time from The Rockies here .

Off-Site / Free Parking Options Near Coors Field

There is a ton of off-site parking near the ballpark. There is also street parking available, just be sure to watch for meter limits. Your best bet is probably to use one of the following services which lets you scout out parking and reserve a spot before you arrive.

• Parking Panda

Public Transportation

Taking public transportation to Coors Field is a great option. You can drive to many of the park and ride stations and take the rail or bus into the ballpark. A day pass is $6, which is far cheaper than most of the parking you’ll be able to find, and you’ll save yourself some of the headache of dealing with traffic. Take the rail to Union Station and you’re only a short walk from Coors Field. RTD has a trip planner you can use to find park and ride stations.

Uber & Lyft

Uber is the official rideshare partner of the Colorado Rockies, but feel free to call Lyft or a cab. The designated rideshare pickup zones are at the corners of 22nd St. & Blake St., and 21st St. & Market.

If you’re new to Uber, you can use this link to get a discount on your first few rides.

Coors Field | Best Seats

Best seats for game views.

Coors Field has great site lines from everywhere. Even the upper deck inside the seating bowl feels close to the action. If you’re attending a night game, we recommend sitting on the 1B side in sections 221 – 223. If you happen to be a Wells Fargo account holder, you may be able to utilize a 2-for-1 offer here . These seats will offer great game views, a straight on view of the scoreboard, and a great look at the sunset. You’ll be in the sun for the first inning or two, so be sure to wear your sunscreen and bring some shades. If staying out of the sun is more important than seeing a good sunset, try the same level on the 3B side, which will be shaded first.

Check out the Rockies’ seat finder on their website to see the view from each section.

Where not to Sit

There aren’t any awful obstructions at Coors Field. Just be cognizant of foul poles and your ability to see the scoreboard. The scoreboard is in left center field, since the Rockpile risers are straight away to dead center. The Rockpile is a cool idea (and dirt cheap — like $5), but feels like you’re miles away from the ballgame. If you are there for the game, these are not your seats. The same can be said for the general admission area near the Rooftop bar. As a heads up, there is no alcohol allowed in section 342.

Best Seats for Shade

To stay out of the sun you’ll want to sit on the 3B side and aim for the last few rows of each of the sections. One thing to keep in mind is that since the sun has less atmosphere to cut through, you’ll get burned much faster than normal, so be sure to wear your sunscreen!

Best Seats for Foul Balls

Coors Field is a hitter’s park. Because of the elevation, the ball travels farther than it would at other ballparks, so pay extra attention for foul balls . Even if you are sitting in one of the upper sections, you may be surprised at how often the ball travels up there. According to foulballz.com your best chances for snagging a foul ball at Coors Field are in sections 137-140 on the 3B side, and 121-124 on the 1B side.

Coors Field | Ballpark Food

The must have: rocky mountain oysters.

If you have to ask what they are, you don’t want to know. But Rocky Mountain Oysters are a classic Denver dish. Find them in section 144.

Something Special: A Dog from Biker Jim’s

Biker Jim’s is a super popular gourmet dog place with a proper location just outside of Coors Field. They also have two stands inside of Coors Park that are wildly successful. The menu isn’t as robust as the Biker Jim’s restaurant, but you can still get a Reindeer Sausage, a Louisiana Red Hot, or a Bacon Cheddar dog. Sections 107 and 331.

The Challenge: The Colorado Queso Stack

Try this huge serving of waffle fries topped with green chilies, pork carnitas, pico, sour cream and jalapenos. Find it in section 305.

Vegetarian and Vegan Options at Coors Field

Biker Jim’s (sections 107 and 331) offer a vegan dog. You’ll also find veggie burgers in sections 120 and 137, along with some salad and wrap offerings. On the club level (200 level), you’ll find Mountain Ranch Bar & Grille, which offers a hummus platter and some salads.

Cherry Cricket | 2220 Blake St, Denver, CO 80205 | Website | Menu | Click to Call Cherry Cricket is a Denver institution and put out some of the best burgers you’ll ever taste. They offer a build-your-own burger menu where you can get all the fixings including your run-of-the-mill toppings and the not-so-normal ones like grilled pineapple, fritos, chicharrones and ancho apricot bbq sauce. They’re more than just burgers though; sandwiches, tex-mex, hot dogs and really good salad options all can be found on their menu. It’s vegetarian/vegan and kid friendly too, making it the perfect place to take the whole family to fill your bellies before a Rockies game.

Tap Fourteen – Rooftop Beer Garden | 1920 Blake St, Denver, CO 80202 | Website | Menu | Click to Call If a chill, laid-back vibe is what you’re after, this rooftop beer garden is your place.

They have over 70 beers on draft and more than 50 different whiskeys available, all from Colorado!

Giggling Grizzly | 1320 20th St, Denver, CO 80202 | Website | Click to Call Giggling Grizzly is a hole in the wall type bar and a great one to go to to skip some of the game-day crowds. It’s cozy and rustic, they’re open late and they usually have some really good drink specials. The food menu leaves a little bit to be desired but if you’re okay with bar bites and cheap drinks, you’ll have a great time here.

Local Attractions

If you’re traveling with a family or just trying to make the most out of your trip to the Denver area, here are some recommended nearby attractions.

National Ballpark Museum | Website You can’t visit Denver and not go to the National Ballpark Museum at least once. It’s chock full of baseball memorabilia, antiques and collections. You can also schedule a personal tour to get a more informative and close-up experience. Any baseball fan will really enjoy this place, and it’s only about a block away from the ballpark. An adult ticket will run you $10 and kids 16 and under are free.

Larimer Square | Website You can spend an entire day eating, shopping and exploring this beautiful, historic district in downtown Denver. Bistros, art galleries, coffee shops, jewelry stores, boutiques and cocktail lounges abound along the streets of the oldest block in the city. The overhead string lights and the early 20th century architecture give you a charming, small-town feel and you just can’t beat the people watching here.

Downtown Aquarium | Website This isn’t just any aquarium, the Downtown Aquarium is a full blown adventure. First, see more than a million gallons of underwater exhibits, over 500 species and experience cool interactive tanks, then have dinner in the restaurant that surrounds the aquarium (talk about cool tableside views) and afterwards, grab a nightcap at the Dive Lounge, their fancy first-floor bar. Tickets are pretty pricey at about $24 per adult and around $18 for children, and that’s just to get into the aquarium, but it’s guaranteed to be a memorable time for all.

Rio on the Rocks: If you’re more into a margarita than a beer, stop on the Rio on your way up to the The Rooftop.

New food for the 2018 season includes  Rocky Mountain Po’Boy, Mile High Mac and Cheese, and Rockies Fritters.

If you look high into the nose-bleeds, you will see a row of purple seats. These upper-deck seats are exactly 5,280 feet above sea level.

An unidentified dinosaur rib bone was unearthed during the excavation of Coors Field . Because of that, the team welcomed a big purple dinosaur named Dinger as the team’s mascot.

Coors Field features a humidor to keep the baseballs moist and avoid too many homers in the mile-high stadium. Before the humidor was installed in 2002, the 1999 season saw 303 homers.

Coors Field, while still a relatively new stadium, is the third-oldest ballpark in the National League.

Coors Field is the site of MLB’s coldest game in 2013 , with a first-pitch temperature of 23 degrees.

The bullpens sit next to section 105 and can be seen from the concourse. So pitching fans can grab some peanuts and watch the relievers and closers warm up if the in-field action starts to hit a lull.

Can’t get enough Coors Field? Tours are available most days year-round.

Coors Field Tour

I went on a Coors Field Tour with some of my co-workers earlier this month, as we were in town for a conference. I thought the ballpark was very well maintained and we learned some interesting tidbits. However, the tour overall was a little boring, especially after having just come from the Broncos' Stadium tour. It is interesting to see where the new ballpark trends began, but that's about it. It is now considered an "older" park and they don't even let you into the Rockies locker room!

There is noting like a cold beer and a hot dog at Coors field! Its a mile high and the setting is inches away from heaven in many ways

I went with a friend and saw Verlander pitch here in the summer of 2011. I like sitting along the left field line, looking north and out to the mountains; though all the seats are good. The city has rule to assure that the view will remain and it is great! Some of the seats are under cover. All the features of a new stadium are here, including the prices. Locals stop at the "Hot Dog Man" near the south entrance for a better deal on some food items. And the Wynkoop Brewery and Pub are just a couple of blocks to the south. Best to take public transit if you can to get to the stadium, which is in the heart of trendy LoDo. Do not forget you sunglasses!

Although Coors Flied is has been around since 1995, it still feels like a new stadium. The tours are nice, but if you can get a seat facing the mountains, you will spend a large part of the 9 innings just enjoying the view.

Not being a baseball fan, I found the experience slightly boring! The field is beautiful & not a bad seat anywhere. Food is simular to most other parks & priced about the same. They did an outstanding job of leaving the center field open to see our beautiful mountains. Can be very cold at open of season & I have actually been snowed on there. A true baseball fan will love this place. A negative would be the parking situation.

I've seen plenty of games here at Coors Field, and love the excitement in the air plus the views are wonderful. So, I decided to take the tour. Great tour, taking you behind the senses and allowing you to be in the dugout and many photos opportunities. Well worth the time.

20 Things to Do Around Coors Field

As locals and owners of Delicious Denver Food Tours, we’ve come to know the Mile High City pretty well. Catching a Rockies game is one of our favorite Denver activities and with so many things to do around Coors Field, it’s easy to fill a day’s itinerary. 

Interestingly, the stadium’s construction in 1995 is what kicked off the reinvigoration of Denver’s downtown. Coors Field sits between RiNo and LoDo, two of the city’s best neighborhoods for food, drink, and fun. From our top-rated Downtown Food Tour to art galleries and arcade games, this guide has attractions for everyone.

The Best Things to Do Around Coors Field

Sample local restaurants on our downtown food tour.

Our Downtown Food Tour is ranked as the #1 Denver experience on TripAdvisor. It takes you to five award-winning local restaurants, all of which are within a half-mile of Coors Field. 

From authentic Neapolitan pizza at Marco’s Coal-Fired to Lazo ’s Argentinian empanadas, this 3-hour walking tour will fill you up and make you fall in love with the city. Drink pairings are also available, and your guide will share insights into our incredible food scene, the history of Coors Field, and Denver’s past and present. 

Check out our other foodie experiences, too, including our RiNo Arts District Food Tour ! Public tours run every day, and private tours are available for groups of six or more.

Play Cornhole and Beer Pong at ViewHouse

ViewHouse is a baseball’s throw away from Coors Field. Its massive space includes a rooftop deck and outdoor courtyard with a range of activities and games. Head here to play volleyball, cornhole, giant Jenga, and beer pong before or after seeing the Rockies. 

This Ballpark mainstay also has a 129’’ TV, perfect for those times when you can’t score tickets. On game days, especially when the weather’s warm, Viewhouse draws a fun, excited crowd. It’s a great location to kick back with a drink, enjoy some food, and have some fun in the sun.

Browse the Selection at Cannabis Station

The Mile High City took on a whole new meaning when in 2014, Colorado became one of the first states to legalize recreational cannabis. Though much of the nation has now followed suit, Colorado’s more mature industry grants a greater selection at lower prices. 

Check out the quality and diverse range of products at our favorite dispensary near Coors Field: Cannabis Station . Its knowledgeable budtenders will help you navigate between flower, edibles, concentrates, and more.

Visit the Original Great Divide Brewing Taproom

Great Divide started brewing in the Ballpark neighborhood all the way back in 1994, long before it was cool. This completely independent brewer is committed to sustainability and giving back to its local community. It boasts five World Beer Cup Awards and 19 medals from the Great American Beer Festival, one of the best things to do in Denver . 

If you’re looking for something to drink before or after a game, we recommend its famous Yeti Imperial Stout and the Colette Farmhouse Ale. Order a flight to try both and other world-class brews at its location just blocks from Coors Field.

Sip and Savor on our Denver Wine Walk

Beer isn’t the only libation loved by Denver locals. The city features incredible wine bars and tasting rooms. Many specialize in various growing regions and offer great happy hour deals . 

Several are also stops on our Denver Wine Walk ! This guided experience is available on Fridays through Sundays from 4-6:30 pm. It includes eight wine tastings and multiple small plates from celebrated eateries like Bistro LeRoux and Blanchard Family Wines . Savor rosé and chocolates, red wines with beef tartare, and more elevated pairings.

Admire Artifacts at the National Ballpark Museum

The National Ballpark Museum is adjacent to Coors Field on Blake and 20th. Its downtown location has displayed hundreds of artifacts since 2010, but founder Bruce Hellerstein was collecting long before then. 

Many pieces of memorabilia relate to the original 14 ballparks, which include Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, and the Chicago Cubs’ Wrigley Field. The museum also highlights local baseball history with relics from the Rockies and Coors Field, as well as the former Denver Bears and Bears Stadium.

Check Out Contemporary Art at Robischon Gallery

Strike a sharp contrast between cheering crowds and athletic competition by visiting Robischon Gallery . Conveniently, it’s just two blocks from the ballpark on the corner of 18th and Wazee. 

This contemporary gallery has been showcasing local, national, and international artists since 1976. It’s open Tuesdays through Fridays from 11 am-6 pm, as well as Saturdays from 12-5 pm. After the sun and noise of a baseball game, it serves as a refreshing oasis of calm and beauty.

Explore Dairy Block, Denver’s Newest Micro-District

Dairy Block is a trendy micro-district less than two blocks from Coors Field. It suits a range of interests with plenty of things to eat, drink, and do. Every visit is unique with new retail goods, seasonal markets, and a rotating calendar of events, plus an ever-evolving dining scene. 

Pair wine with charcuterie at Blanchard Family Wines . This tasting room comes from the award-winning, Sonoma-based winery — and happens to be a stop on our Denver Wine Walk .

If spirits are more your thing, check out Poka Lola Social Club . Set within The Maven Hotel, this buzzy bar offers a range of craft beverages. Sample these solo or on our guided Cocktails + Tastes Tour .

Feeling hungry? Visit some of the best restaurants in Denver at Dairy Block. This includes For[a]ged , a raw bar and steakhouse by star chef Duy Pham; BRUTØ , which recently won one of Colorado’s first Michelin stars; and Kachina Cantina , a stop on our Downtown Food Tour .

See the Game on the Big Screen at McGregor Square

McGregor Square is a mixed-use development right next to Coors Field. If you don’t have tickets into the stadium, this is the next best place to cheer on the Rockies. 

Its outdoor plaza features a massive 66′ by 20′ LED screen, which always draws a crowd on game day. Tom’s Watch Bar is another ideal spot to post up, offering pub grub, ice-cold beer, and several flatscreens — plus Topgolf Swing Suites. 

The Rally Hotel is also located within McGregor Square. Stay here to take part in all the revelry in the heart of Ballpark.

Play Pinball and Other Classic Games at 1up Arcade Bar

1up Arcade Bar is just a block from Coors Field and features a full bar, New York-style pizza slices, and retro arcade games from wall to wall. Here, with an adult beverage in hand, you can live out your nostalgic adolescent dreams. 

Enjoy classics like Donkey Kong, Tron, and Pac-Man alongside Contra, NBA Jam, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and more. 1up Arcade Bar also has a wide variety of pinball games and hosts a pinball tournament on the first Sunday of every month.

Party Hard at Howl at the Moon, Coming Soon

Live music bar Howl at the Moon and adjoined nightclub Down Denver will soon open on the corner of 21st and Larimer, just two blocks from Coors Field. At its previous location, it hosted dueling pianos, performers across a range of music genres, and more entertaining acts.

Currently, it’s unclear as to what Howl at the Moon will offer in its new space. But undoubtedly, the bar chain will serve its iconic bucket drinks. Sip on Malibu Barbie made with Pink Whitney vodka and strawberry rum while singing along to party anthems. Few Denver bachelorette party ideas can compete with this one!

Belt Out Your Go-To Karaoke Song at Star Bar

Star Bar has served the Ballpark district since 1959. Expect a dive atmosphere and an extensive whiskey and craft beer selection. Food isn’t served here, but drinks are reasonably priced, especially compared to the newer, more trendy pubs in the area.  

It offers an outdoor patio, but entertainment often keeps patrons indoors. Tuesday and Thursday karaoke nights are especially busy. Punch in your go-to track (sans anything Journey) and listen to others belt out their favorite tunes. All are open to participate, talented or not. If you’d rather leave the singing to the professionals, stop into Star Bar on one of its live music nights.

Toast Boozy Beverages (or Mocktails!) on our Cocktail Tasting Tour

Take happy hour up a notch with our expert-led Cocktail Tasting Tour , available daily from 4:30-6:30 pm. This guided experience includes 4 craft cocktails and curated bites at two of our three stops. Enjoy a Brachetto spritz paired with marinated olives at Tavernetta , sip a smooth butter pecan old fashioned at Urban Farmer , and be delighted by more tasty samples! 

Our tour involves visits to some of the city’s top sites, including Union Station and Dairy Block. Take in the ambiance while learning about Denver’s incredible dining scene. This guided experience is a great pick for team building activities , entertaining tourists, and even engaging those who don’t drink, as mocktails are also available. 

Visit Denver’s Living Room at Union Station

Union Station , which some refer to as “Denver’s living room,” is more than an essential piece of the city’s history. Today, it’s a central dining and drinking destination full of delicious things to try . 

Nosh on pancakes at Snooze , a local favorite and one of the best brunch spots in Denver . Savor a James Beard award-winning chef’s menu at Mercantile Dining & Provisions . You can also visit the station’s original ticket windows, which are now built into Terminal Bar .

For dessert, order a scoop or three at Milkbox Ice Creamery , which is a featured stop on our Downtown Food Tour .

Taste Italian-Bred, Colorado-Raised Wines at Attimo Winery

When Jon Schlegel founded Snooze in 2006, he accomplished his first dream of opening a restaurant before he turned 30. A tremendous success, the restaurant spread across Denver, then Colorado and throughout the US. 

This made his second dream possible: living abroad. Jon purchased a small vineyard in Piedmont, Italy where we learned the art of wine-making. He brought this back to Denver with the Attimo Wine tasting room, located just a few blocks from Coors Field. Stop by for incredible, authentic Italian wines and small snacks on its beautiful patio.

Order a Beer Flight at Wynkoop Brewing Company

Wynkoop is the first brewpub in Denver and one of the largest in the nation. Originally, it was owned by former Denver mayor, Colorado governor, and current Senator, John Hickenlooper.

Its spacious three-level interior features bar games, a large food menu, and of course, plenty of brews. If you’re feeling adventurous, try the Rocky Mountain oyster stout. Spoiler: Rocky Mountain oysters aren’t seafood! Per barrel, this beer is made with exactly three roasted and sliced bull testicles.

Imbibe at Cruise Room Inside The Oxford Hotel

Cruise Room has operated since Prohibition’s repeal (though, some say before that…) and is an exact replica of the bar aboard the Queen Mary . This swanky lounge is set inside The Oxford, Denver’s oldest hotel, located just two blocks from Coors Field. After a game, stop in for live music and classic cocktails in an intimate, elegant setting.

Try Multiple Vendors at Denver Milk Market

Denver Milk Market is a food hall with eleven different dining concepts — truly, there’s something for everyone. It’s the brain-child of local celebrity chef Frank Bonnano and features the greatest hits of his employee-led restaurant group. Chances are if you like something at the Market, the Bonanno group has an entire Denver restaurant devoted to that exact cuisine.

Inside Denver Milk Market, you’ll find everything from poke bowls to street tacos, Nashville hot chicken, handmade pasta and pizza, plus gelato for dessert. Located just two blocks from Coors Field, it’s perfect for both a quick bite or a long afternoon of drinking and hanging out.

Catch Improv and Stand Up at Rise Comedy

Rise Comedy is a great stop for a drink and some laughs following a game at Coors Field. Since 2011, this venue formerly known as Voodoo Comedy Playhouse has been a mainstay for live comedy. In 2019, LA comedy veterans Nick Armstrong and Josh Nicols joined founder Steve Wilder in evolving the theater’s offerings. 

Today, events include live improvised musicals, stand up showcases, pop culture satires, and more entertaining acts. Shows happen several nights each week and a full bar adds to the energetic atmosphere. This spot is a great place to unwind after cheering on the Rockies.

Dine at the Instagrammable Wonderyard Garden + Table

Earlier this year, Wonderyard Garden + Table opened across the street from Rise Comedy on the corner of 22nd and Larimer. This bar-forward restaurant comes from the same hospitality group as Viewhouse and like its sister concept, it knows how to please a crowd. 

Namely, an Instagram-worthy aesthetic is what sets Wonderyard apart. Seat yourself within an oversized birdcage wrapped in twinkle lights and strike a pose next to its floral and neon-lit wall. The menu is equally fabulous with cocktails served in purse-shaped glasses and garnished with cotton candy. Pair drinks with shareable apps, wood-fired flatbreads, and tasty globally-inspired mains including a pork carnitas torta, falafel wrap, and steak frites served with patatas bravas.

The Ballpark Guide

Detailed Fan Guides for MLB & MiLB

• Coors Field

When many baseball fans think of Denver’s Coors Field, they picture a place where the baseballs fly because of the thin air. That might be your first thought, too, but you’ll quickly want to add this thought to your mind — a place that you really need to visit. Coors Field might not frequently get mentioned among the upper echelon of major league ballparks, but this National League West stadium has a lot of things going for it.

Denver sits a mile above sea level, and the thin air that comes with this elevation will be apparent to you once you arrive in the city. You’ll also get a kick out of the way that Coors Field pays homage to its elevation. Take a look at the 20th row of seats in the upper deck, and you might be surprised to see that they’re purple instead of green. This row represents exactly one mile above sea level, and getting a chance to sit in it makes for a fun photo op. The thin air and the purple row of seats aside, you’ll appreciate the view of the Rocky Mountains that you in the distance beyond left field. A seat high on the third base side gives you this view throughout the game, which is especially breathtaking when the sun begins to set.

There are a number of interesting sights to check out during your visit. Be sure to take a walk around the perimeter of Coors Field before entering. Doing so gives you a chance to appreciate the retro look of this brick ballpark, which actually opened in 1995. You’ll also see what is known as the Coors Field Garden, which is located next to Gate A behind center field. Since 2013, the team has been growing herbs and veggies that are used in multiple eateries throughout the park.

When you enter the park, be sure to take a look at the fountains in center field. Many MLB stadiums have fountains, but those are Coors Field are easily among the most impressive — thanks, in part, to the trees and rocks that surround them as an homage to the Rocky Mountain flora. While you’re in center field, make sure to check out the Rockpile — one of the more iconic seating sections in all of baseball — and the concourse in left-center field. It’s one of the more fun places to hang out, both during batting practice and once the game begins, and there are a number of fun food options just steps away.
