A lot of my greatest baseball memories happened at AT&T Park. The first one happened when I was in 2nd grade and my dad had taken me to a NLCS game because that year the Giants went to the World Series. I was at the game where J.T Snow hit a walk off (I think) or a home run late in the game to tie it up. I remember that place going crazy that time and it was so loud there i could barely hear a thing. It was an amazing experience going to that game. Another amazing experience was going to a World Series game at AT&T Park and watching the Giants win that game, but unfortunately end up losing the series.
My next great baseball memory was during a Burlingame Dad's Club softball tournament at AT&T Park. The went to the public middle school in Burlingame before coming to Menlo, and the Dad's CLub of the school district held a Softball Tournament. The tournament consisted of a team of dads from each school in the Burlingame School District. With connections, the tournament was held at AT&T Park. Since my dad put in a big sum of money for advertisement, the person running the tournament told my dad that he could pick anyone to throw out the first pitch before the championship game of the tournament. My dad picked me to walk out to the mound on AT&T Park and throw out the first pitch. There was really no crowd there except little kids and parents, but walking out onto that mound looking at a huge stadium was an amazing experience for me.
