    The Beam

    So I'm staying for a couple of nights at the Sawyer Kimpton Hotel in Sacramento. First night, nice room, comfortable bed, played foosball in a second floor restaurant then went up to my room on the eleventh floor. On my second night, I'm in my room, and I look out the window, and what the...!!?? Is that??? I'm blinded by The Light! Can I see Las Vegas from here? No, it's not Vegas. And it looks purple?? Phoenix Suns purple, above the Warriors Arena. I guess it was "Honor the Phoenix Suns Night" or something. It looked pretty cool. Especially since it was purple. Anyway, I pulled a chair over to the window and started taking pictures of it. Very cool, Sacramento!

    The Beam is my shepherd: I shall not want. It makes me lie down in greener pastures. It leads me beside still waters. It restores my soul. It leads me in paths of righteousness, For the Kangz sake.

    If The Beam has million number of fans I am one of them. If The Beam has ten fans I am one of them. If The Beam has only one fan and that is me. If The Beam has no fans, that means I am no longer on earth. If the world against The Beam, I am against the world.

    The Beam is the most amazing thing that has ever come to Sacramento. It needs to be seen from outer space!

    Went 2x recently, for the Sacramento Kings Draft Party, and day 1 of the Summer League…read more Located downtown Sacramento, there are plenty of options for parking, most are parking garages within short walking distance, or there is some metered parking that may require a little longer and more adventurous walk to stadium. There is a strict bag policy so be sure to read up on it if you are taking in an event so as not to delay your entry. Going through security is easy enough, voth security. And the ticket scanner/door workers are always pleasant and efficient in processing you into the arena. Both the draft party, and summer league were informal, so most tickets were general admission and your were free to sit almost anywhere(barring the first 3 or 4 rows). (The draft party initially only had 5-7 sections open , but as the crowd grew closer to draft, more sections were opened . There were a few basic concessions open, for water, beer, hot dogs, chicken fingers, pizza, and a few of the other stands. Not all concessions that are normally open for concerts or regular season games were open, but was able to get chicken strips that were pretty good in quantity, and quality with fries and a beer. All in all, was a fun time, and a nice arena.

    I saw Conan Gray here last march for the WBWT, and the acoustics were amazing…read more The staff were very friendly, and extremely helpful. The seats were also very comfortable for it being arena seating, and even though I was in the back, it felt like Conan was singing right in front of me, the acoustics were great.

The parking was $30 and you get to park decently close to the stadium. Bring a clear bag because they are very strict with their bag policy. The food was surprisingly good also.

    Came here with my son after winning tickets to a Saturday evening Sacramento Republic (SRFC)…read more Parking: Cal Expo parking was $15 via cash, debit or credit (They don't take AMEX). Surrounding stadium area: Located at Heart Health Park in Cal Expo, the Sac Republic facility is a really nice spot. Outside of the field was almost a dozen food (pizza, Greek, Tacos, German, frozen treats, etc.) & drink trucks (beers, Margaritas, Agua Frescas, etc.) options. Stadium area: VIP seating to the South, Home field side to the West, Away side to the East, and the tall bleachers to the North. SRFC also has a really nice field. Overall: Good area, good assorted food & drinks options, good stadium.

    Extra-OK. Could've been better is a more accurate description…read more Exciting that the home team won but the venue will be happy when everyone has relocated. It feels like a Band-Aid...probably because it is and has been for over a decade. The brand new venue, whenever it shows up https://www.republicstadium.com will hopefully be a good one. Sure, if you can't survive a couple hours without alcohol, you can splurge and sink some earnings in to a beverage and even scarf down some food for a premium. Passed on all that this time. This felt permanently temporary and with good reason- it is. It was exciting to stomp on the metal bleachers when that happened. It also felt like a high school rally where the kiddos would stomp and pout and make as much noise as they could. Found myself applauding because that seemed appropriate at the time but could not understand what seemed like trying to play an instrument with your feet on the metal bleacher. Parking seemed convenient enough. $15 for the evening with a back exit to split when the time came. It will cost more at the new place because this is left over space from a pretty much fallen California Exposition Center. They'll have to pave new lots. Yay. Bathrooms were porta-potties. Most of them were anyways. Yet another permanently temporary band-aid. Let's hope they don't take them out to the new stadium. Food venues looked like leftovers from the fair. Not about that. The "premium" spots gated and guarded by folks who want more money to sit down will hopefully get some real upgrades as opposed to the fancy net protecting them at this place. Had some dudes sing the National Anthem (ooh, anthem time baby!) and a brief half time display. Thanks Rachel, for the scarf. It seemed warm and the stadium was half in the sun upon arrival so shorts and a t-shirt were too much. Sun went down and it got a little chilly so the scarf-ish thing was welcome. "Bonney Field is not meant to be a permanent structure." This is the same place but with new name tags. The quote is from over 11 years ago. Out with the old, in with the new. Not entirely disappointed in going to this old setup (will most likely be the first and last time going here) and not bothered in the least that it's going away.

    A River Cats game is always a fun time, win or lose because of the food, promos and vibes…read more I've been to games since they first became a team and love Sutter Health Ballpark's classic look and pretty views over the outfield. They've had a lot of great promos this season, and I love that they have new, creative food options every season like the burger combo that's served in a Tower Bridge box (I still need to try this!). It's fun to see up-and-coming ballplayers grow their talent and occasionally a Giant will rehab with the team (the River Cats are the Triple-A team of the San Francisco Giants), which is always fun to see. Parking is only $15 and it's easy to get a spot in the lot close to the ballpark if you arrive early. Pro tip: look up their bag policy before you go to make your trip as smooth as possible! I think small purses and clear bags are okay off the top of my head. I always bring my tiny black purse with no issues. There are different promo days depending on the day of the week that offer discounts on ice cream, hot dogs, and drinks. My friend and I caught happy hour last month and appreciated the $3 discount on our beers and waters before first pitch. I'm looking forward to my next game. Thanks!

    Another great night at the Sacramento River Cats Legacy club for tonight's game…read more Not much of a crowd in the stands tonight for a great night of baseball, but there was quite a bit in the legacy club enjoying tonight's menu. Besides the salad bar, the menu included barbecue chicken, smoked tri-tip, scallop potatoes, baked beans, broccolini,and rolls. Those shorthanded, Garry and Kevin did an outstanding job with the buffet. I love that they always keep it refilled and the counters and tables clean. It doesn't matter how busy it gets. They are always on their jobs and are so appreciated. The Rivercats had a special treat for us in the legacy. We were able to go down for Merlino's, and it was so good. Tonight we also picked up our Member gifts, which was a pennant, a pin, and a baseball. Another great thing is that the Rivercats won the game!
