Candlestick Park Takes Giant Step to Improve Image

Longtime fans who attend San Francisco Giants ballgames at Candlestick Park this season may be shocked to discover their stadium has gone yuppie.

Concession choices will no longer be limited to standard ballpark fast-food fare, such as fat-filled hot dogs, salty peanuts and beer. Instead, Giants’ fans can now choose among the following healthy foods: meatless hot dogs, yogurt, salads and--of course--all the mineral water you can drink.

The team is attempting to change Candlestick Park’s rowdy image. The changes will not be limited to food. Restrooms, including men’s rooms, will be equipped with diaper-changing tables and will have attendants present.
