Food: 
Fairly short lines at the concession stands. Food included hot dogs, pretzels, funnel cake, etc. The cost of food was very economical.

Free Parking, large lot.
Atmosphere:
The stadium is nestled in the Montage Mountain Ski resort area. Therefore, the centerfield view out of the stadium is very scenic. The stadium has more of a “major league” feel to it. The stadium felt like a miniature version of the Vet. As far as sound effects, the stadium played the usual baseball type music.
The stadium is very clean and fairly new. Ushers and stadium staff are easily accessible. The crowd was mild and most fans seemed very loyal to their Red Barons
Restrooms:
- Several restrooms are located throughout the stadium on each level
