Long lines, slow service, only took cash, then the only ATM ran out of cash. Didn't honor the early bird special 29 minutes after gate opening which is why I needed more cash. Baseball was poor but I missed most of it in the long line. Much more fun at the Boomers.

Slammers games are affordable, easy to get to by car or Metra and a lot of fun for the whole family. Contests and entertainment between innings, prizes, beer specials when the Slammer's reach a goal or do something special that game and the ability to interact with the players before and after the game. Great place, love taking the kids here!

Nothing too special about this stadium. Street parking or in parking lots of local businesses. Not a lot of choices for food, especially for small children. It's just ok, but very affordable so that was good.

It was a very enjoyable evening, especially since I'm a senior citizen and am not able to go to professional baseball games.

I recently planned a work outing with Roy at the Joliet Slammers and not only was he extremely helpful but also very patient will all of the last minute ticket requests. The whole team had a great time and it is definitely an event we'll repeat.

I was there for a 17u fall ball baseball tournament. Although the stadium was not completely operational because the team that usually plays there was not playing, the stadium was still in good order. The restrooms and seating were clean. The view from my seat was unobstructed. I had no problem parking, but I believe that was because it was a high school baseball tournament, as opposed to the Slammers playing. My experience was so good that I may go to one of the Slammers' games next season.

Haven't been back in a couple years, and now I remember why.... the park is rundown, the entertainment between innings is uninspired, the food is worse than ever... I had the BBQ pork fries, the server chopped the pork to shreds until it was completely dried out, fries were cold. Also the Beef Giardinera nachos... Beef was cold, chips were tasteless... spent $75 that night on tasteless, gross, cold food. Best thing was the drinks, but then how can you go wrong on bottled or canned drinks...the fireworks was just okay... thank goodness the team won, at least one thing came out right.... Never coming back again. I'd rather drive an hour to Kane County Cougars for great food, entertainment, exciting fireworks, and very relaxing park, that way if they lost a game, it's not a total loss.

This is baseball at its finest. The venue is excellent. Well maintained, friendly, family oriented and convenient. Plenty of parking nearby. The last game we went to was a thriller. Close score, zero errors and well played by both sides. Baseball as it should be. They love fans and bringing young children is a must. This park has all the adornments of a big league venue. Great bar in left field. A real local treasure which deserves our support.

The park is nice, but the concessions are lacking. Prices are somewhat high and some simple, yet common, items are missing like nachos (chips with cheese). The do offer fully loaded nachos, but we didn't want all of the toppings or to spend so much.

This is a great place for family fun. Very affordable, players interact with fans, and just a lot of FUN.
Great players on the team too.
Also the staff are very friendly and helpful. You won't see that in major league parks anymore.

Went to Amazon ' s family picnic. Had a great time. Plenty of food and fun for everyone. The stadium staff were very nice and helpful. The stadium was well maintained. Very clean restrooms.

These games are really well done. It also helps how competitive the team is. The ball park is set up well for kids. The lawn is large and a great place to catch foul balls. They have a park set up in left field that kids can play on during the game. Also a nice feature is the safety net set up all the down to the dugouts. Lastly the food and drink prices are over priced ball park rates, but they are reasonable for sporting events.

I like the stadium, buying tickets was easy, we did the BBQ combo deal. Food was actually really good. And you save over buying food at the concession stands. We did get rained out but you save the ticket and they give you tickets to another game. Sweet! Staff was all very friendly, it was a good time even with the rain out. O, FREE parking...like free....amazing.

As someone with distain for the prison industrial complex, I'm not really a fan of the namesake. I'm sure there's some great local legends of the ominous looking Joliet Correctional Center, visible just beyond the outfield fence, but I'd rather get my fill of America's greatest pastime without a reminder of America's greatest problem.

With that said, everyone working the stadium was very kind and welcoming and it's a nice facility. You can take the Metra from downtown directly to this stadium, easypeasy. Keep an eye out for deals and special days: we went here on $2 tickets, had awesome seats, and got to see a sweet fireworks show after the game.

Also shout out to Cards Against Humanity for (unofficially?) naming this place Cards Against Humanity Baseball Place, it was a name just barely funny enough to get me to check out a game.
