Fantastic experience—cheap, fun, and a great opportunity to watch quality baseball with a small crowd. The Rough Riders are the Texas Rangers’ double-A affiliate, so the quality of play is high, but the ticket prices are not (tickets for the grass in the outfield are only $14 a person). A great time for the whole family, and much easier to access than the Rangers stadium in Arlington. Also the stadium is beautiful and feels new, and the entire place has the vibe of a well-manicured theme park—as if Disneyland had its own baseball team. Only 30-minutes from downtown Dallas, this is a great option for those looking for unique things to do and see in the city.

One of the nicest minor league fields I have visited. Convenient location in Frisco and lots of kid and family friendly activities during the game and food around the park. Not a lot of shade on the first base side from the Texas sun though so would recommend 3rd base side in the summer 😅 if you have an option.

We live across the street and really enjoy coming to the games and other events at the stadium. It is beautiful and resembles Churchill Downs. We ended up at the lazy river tonight and it is heated so my wife was very happy! Great drinks and excellent prices. A blast for anyone wanting to experience a great minor league game.

I’ve been to games in Tulsa, Springfield, Kansas City , and San Antonio…ALL of which have far more entertainment and engaging activities, music during the games. I come for the fun activity and was highly let down here in Frisco. The characters have been sitting in seats 90% of the time, music very sporadically, announcements only second half. Plays are uneventful and not highlighted, celebrated half priced drinks more than a double play. No t-shirts being thrown, or small prizes. Seems like activities are bare minimum to complete sponsor obligation. Beautiful facility but doesn’t make up for the vast lack of experience.

Great, family-friendly ballpark! We enjoy the game. Every seat has a great view. The playground is a great little bonus when the kids get bored of sitting. Several options for food. Friendly staff and visible security throughout.
