Away we go into the magical (not really) city of Phoenix, Arizona. Phoenix Municipal Stadium is the spring home of the Oakland Athletics. Phoenix Muni is located just off the Loop 202 at Priest Dr. near Papago Park.
I want to start things out by stating that I have never seen a game from the stadium. It's in a nice area but other than that there is not much exciting about seeing a game there. It is a fairly small stadium with a capacity of 8000 but that works out well because parking around the stadium can be tough. I highly recommend using the light rail to get to the game if it's an option.
Where to be pre-game...
The proximity to Tempe leaves all of the options I mentioned in my previous post about Tempe Diablo stadium doable. Kind of a cop out but I am going to leave it at that.
Stadium experience...
Not much I can say here. I have never been insides the stadium and probably won't make it this year. If you are a fan of any team other than the A's I would only recommend going if it is your team they are facing. There are plenty of more interesting stadiums to go to.
Where to be post-game...
Only one place I would want to be. Papago Brewing Company is one of the best bars in the greater Phoenix area. They feature around 30 beers on tap and 1 cask selection at all times. This is on top of a huge selection of bottles. About half of the draft beer is what I would deem rare. Like most of the places I selected to share it does not look like much from the outside. It is located in a strip mall so make sure you pay attention when looking for it.
Angry's favorite restaurants...
- Pizzeria Bianco - The best pizza in Phoenix and probably the southwest.
- Los Dos Molinos - HOT New Mexican food. Delicious.
