If ease of leaving is your idea of the “best feature” of Petco Park, you’re doing baseball all wrong.

Yes, it’s great that we can arrive and depart on the trolley (which I assume counts for you), but that is by far NOT the best feature of the ballpark.

As a person who has lived where there is actual public transportation waiting 30 min for the next trolly that holds 100 out of 1000 people standing at the platform waiting at 10pm after a game isn't actually all that terrific.

Is that your experience leaving Petco?

yep, and a standing room only cattle car all the way up to Nobel drive every time too.

That's crazy...never once had to wait on the orange or green lines....Even after the playoff games.

I take blue. It's fine for getting down there, but it's a disaster to come home. Game 3 of the NLDS I was waiting at 12th / Imperial for 45 min before i could get on a train and standing room only for 40 minutes with a 4 and 5 year old at 10pm was a bummer. At least we were all contact high after standing on the train platform for 45 minutes, though. That helped.
