Last Giants Game I saw was at Candlestick Park. Is that still around? (not concerned enough to google it) I seem to vaguely recall hearing something a new stadium.
I have slept through several games at the Kingdome, Candlestick Park, and whatever Stadium that Nolan Ryan pitched in is/was called. The only thing I learned was to bring along a good book to stay awake.

This applies to English football matches, not sure if it'll work for you.

1. Wear the shirt.

2. Drink as much alcohol as you can before the game.

C. Arrive at the ground 5 minutes late. No more, no less.

4. Order a drink as soon as you arrive.

F. Take the first empty seat you can find.

5. Try to start a chant.

E. Make offensive hand gestures at the visiting supporters.

D. Persist with the chanting idea, it's worth it.

8. Try to hold your pee in till it's over.

6. Blame the referee.

12. After the game head to a bar to celebrate / commiserate.

yeah I saw that, that guy was the biggest asshole, he wouldn't even give the kid the ball

bernadette

in the end the kid got a lot more attention, a baseball & a bat!
the dickhead just got publicly called a an asshole.

......
Speed_Gibson, candlestick has been renamed a couple times. i forget what is now. i have no idea if the game is there or where. i can let you know thursday morning!

jwoody, that list is numbered mighty curiously...
#2 is a given. i will a shirt, not <i>the</i> shirt.

i'll have no control over #C, since i am riding there with friends.

i'll have no control over #8 either & will most likely spend 50% the time hiking to the women's room, standing in line to whiz & then standing in line to get another beer, walking back to my seat, asking who's winning? snap a couple pictures. wash. rinse. repeat.

fremen! where do i get the personalized giant Giant's foam hand??

It's PacBell or SBC park now. If you're not familiar with the wonderfull SF weather, bring warm clothes, you're right on the water there and it's gonna get cold real quick.

Try the garlic fries...mmmm, goes good with a beer.

Yell at Barry if you get the chance, he likes it.

As Jwoody stated, cussing and offensive hand gestures at the other team/fans is expected and always a blast!

Edit: I just looked, the game is VS The Dodgers. You picked a GREAT game to go to, if not for just the fans.

Have a blast!

Bring a sign with an asterisk on it and wave it when Barroids bats!

I think they are playing the Dodgers. It's an important game because the two teams are fighting it out for 1st place in the NL West.

Meet up with Lurkette as she is in SF on business, Drink a beer for us, Yell "Beat LA", bring a jacket or maybe a blanket, and a baseball glove! You never know when a foul ball could come your way, and watch EVERY pitch as you never know when a foul ball could come your way! Sit back relaxe and revel in the views of the SF Bay!

bernadette

oh wow. i wish i could meet up with lurkette, but since i will be at the mercy of friends... it is unlikely tomorrow night.

how long is she in SF? lurkette, PM me!!

i could have a glove the size of texas, a ball fly straight smack dab at me & still manage not to catch it.
(especially if i drink as much beer as everyone is telling me! hehe)

00111000, i know the city's climate. i am going to wear a lovely evening parka i think.
