Hold on to your beer in San Francisco
Posted by: Richie Rich in Beer, Drunken Fans, GiantsUsually at a ballgame, you need to keep you eyes on your beer. At $7.75 for 16 ounces … it’s a near-tragedy when some oaf stumbles down your row and knocks over your brew.
But in the bleachers at AT&T Park in San Francisco - you gotta be aware of the wind …
Watch as the wind tries to knock over a nearly-full beer …
If that beer wasn’t 3/4 full, I think the wind might have knocked it down and given a great payoff for that video. Especially if the guy wasn’t adding his commentary.
But I’m happier that the wind didn’t blow it over – because that would have been a waste of beer.
By the way … are the Giants that boring? Considering that these guys recorded a cup of beer sitting on a bleacher, I guess they must be.

Erm…. those seats aren’t in the bleachers. That’s like View Reserved or whatever.

They’re benches with no backs on them.
Those would be bleachers, no matter what the section is called.

@ Richie:
While technically correct, calling those seats “bleachers” is the wrongest. Everyone knows “bleachers” refers to seats in the outfield. That’s not open to interpretation.

Those are the bleachers in the true sense. The only seats at (insert Phone Company Here) Park that are benches are the ones behind the outfield wall.
