The crab grilled cheese was extremely tasty. Long wait, though.

 I think I've said this in three threads - a big eff you to those that made it to the home opener. I envy and detest you at the same time.

They've got to add more bathroom capacity on the 200-level behind RF mezzanine and under RF terrace. One men's room for many, many thousands of seats. Line was an inning long.

They need to fix the PA system. Couldn't hear at all from my seats in 205 or my friends' in 314.

1620 S Capitol St SE - $15 if in advance.  They may be $15 at game time but today were $20.

I noticed the same problem, but I think they fixed it by the 6th inning or so.

Worked generally well for me -- at 3 of 4 places.   Perfectly at Peet's Coffee (best coffee at the park I've had), El Verano Taqueria, and Baseline Brews on 300 level.   

It was not yet working at the District Drafts on the 300 level, but they said it would be soon.

Parking lot on South Capital street under the SE/SW freeway is still open for $10. Still had seats open 10 min before the first pitch.

They have been pricing more to market ever since that competing lot opened a block away.

I know there was some kind of Wifi at the Park Opening Day.  I couldn't get decent service opening day no matter what I used though

Curious, is there anything more to it than just putting $50 on your card?

Nope, I did it just before I left for the game today and it worked fine at the park

I hoped eCash Only lines will help to get things faster. However, eCash Only lines were taking credit cards as well which totally defies the purpose of eCash for me.

I would like to have seen more eCash-only lines for sure, but I was also pleased to see it being accepted at even little stands like Max's Kosher Grill. So I share your complaint but remain hopeful.
