    Lipstick on a pig. When they get done, it'll still be in Frisco.

    Luxury suite, baby! Watch the game from an oversized sterile room with a TV panel and a window where you might be able to see some of the game live, in case you're interested. Oh, and a plate of crudités!

    I sat in Kaval's fieldside box once during the 1st or 2nd season at PayPal. The catered appetizers were - to put it kindly - ass.

    It may appear that you're in a non-descript corporate meeting space, but every now and then you hear some cheering to remind you - you're in a non-descript corporate meeting space, that is in the stadium! How cool is that?? Oh, and the Costco crudités for the win!

    I also wonder about the two women at the left, sitting in the comfy naugahyde booth -- why are they shouting at each other across the length of a table when one or both could scoot a little closer? And the guy at the right -- what's he looking at on the roof? And why is he standing so awkwardly? So many questions!

    Maybe afraid of an assassination attempt from one another?

    That looked odd to me too, like someone who's trying to look cool and casual with the way he stands but winding up just looking awkward. I guess that's his "cool guy watchin' socca" stance.

    Costco is great! But their crudite trays, which tend to show up in too many places, are not so great. The veggies tend to be dried up and bitter, and need a lot of salad dip to be even remotely palatable.

    "The $55 million renovation began in 2016 and included new locker rooms and two new club spaces beneath the Hall of Fame, which officially opened in late 2018."​

    They spent $55 million on a stadium renovation in 2016-2018, and now they are spending another $182 million.... how much did PayPal Park cost again, around $100 million?

    That’s cool, I guess that’s largely what Shawlee has been working on?

    Thank Bay FC for what will likely be a Gold Cup group stage doubleheader at PayPal Park. Bay built the new locker rooms which finally brought PayPal up to snuff. Two lockers room didn't cut it for professional team doubleheaders.

    I attended the Gold Cup final at Levi’s in 2017, so, yeah, been there and done that. Might get tickets for Avaya, though.

    I'm posting this in 2 threads just in case...

    If you have purchased food from a PayPalPark concession stand, be on the lookout for fraudulent credit card charges. Someone claiming to be SJ Earthquakes "tapped" my card on Monday morning (Sep-23-2024). I did not go to the Sep-21 Quakes game. I had used that card at a stadium concession stand during a May #BayFC game and I guess someone skimmed the card info.
