Bulls vs Braves - July 3

Took in a Bulls game over the 4th of July weekend. Since I was a little tardy in getting tickets, we ended up in the Diamond View seats in right field. Right field in the Durham Bulls Athletic Park is a sun field, so it was a bit of a challenge battling the sun for the first three innings or so. But the weather was beautiful - cool and in the upper 70s/low 80s.


Last year the new Diamond View 2 building opened in left field and, this year, they have opened up the walkway (previously closed) between center field and the Blue Monster in left. As a result, the DBAP is now a 360 degree ballpark (for the first time in its 15 year history). 


There is a now a brand new Tobacco Road Sports Cafe on the first floor of Diamond View 2 building. The cafe is accessible from inside and outside the ball park. The Bulls have also set up some nice seating options on top of the Blue Monster. Along with the many options for pre-game and post-game drinks and eats in the American Tobacco Complex adjacent to the ball park, the DBAP gets better and better. What a superb venue to take in a game. Have been to a ton of minor league parks, but Durham Bulls Athletic Park is at the top.
