Loved my experience at the stadium. I picked reserved parking, since I'm disabled, and parked a short distance from the main entryway. There are, of course, metal detectors as you go in, which, of course, required a manual wanding because of my leg braces. Staff was patient with my slowness, as were other patrons. I arrived at my seat in short order, under the shade of the left field upper deck.

The one issue I did have was a lack of handrails going down the steps, but I was able to sit in the upper row, since the crowd was small, one step down from the main concourse. In this way, I was able to enjoy the game without risking injury, since I don't handle stairs very well at all.

For a day game, left field is the way to go, especially if you're supposed to limit sun exposure. If you can tolerate the sun, right field and the outfield corners are optimal.

Concessions are card-only, now. If you brought cash, there is at least one machine, probably more where you can exchange cash for a preloaded card. Be prepared for that $10 souvenir drink cup. I had a very tasty footlong brat with mine. I did not see any vendors in the stands at this game, so be prepared.

The views at Kauffman are excellent, the fountains are very attractive, and the seating was pretty comfortable, and certainly more large adult friendly than those in the foul corner sections.

I used the MLB website to pay for parking, and the MLB Ballpark app to receive my ticket for parking and the game, I bought that on TickPick. It generates a "Live" QR code, so a screenshot is NOT accepted for parking or entry, don't even try.

I did accept a cart ride back out to my car at the end of the game. By then, I was gassed enough to need it, and numerous carts are available to accommodate disabled folks like me. If you need to call for one, a number is available on the Park's webpage. They can dispatch a cart to pick you up. I do appreciate this service.

There is room on the concourse for mobility scooters, and I saw elevators in the main entry that can get you to other levels.

I had fun. Research gave me what I consider to be an excellent experience, and I'll be sad to see them replace a fine facility with one downtown.
