Take part in a variety of activities at the Interactive Area. The activities are especially fun for kids and feature pro batter, speed pitch, and tee ball. The Interactive Area is also home to the 850 KOA Fantasy Broadcast Booth, where fans can call half an inning live during the game and receive a DVD of your broadcast.
Water Feature
Located in center field, the water feature has seven fountains which shoot water forty feet in the air before a home game, after a Rockies home run, during the seventh inning stretch, and if the Rockies win. Watch for the water feature after every Rockies home and win at Coors Field.
Blue Moon Brewery at the Sandlot
Behind the right field stands is the Blue Moon Brewery at the Sandlot. Blue Moon beer originated here, so make sure to grab some of the delicious brews during your trip to Coors Field.
Purple Row
The purple row of seats in the upper deck mark a mile above sea level. Take some time to see the seats before the game and say that you stood a mile above sea level.
The Rockpile
The Rockpile is located high above center field. They may not be the best seats in the house, but they are the cheapest at only $4 a piece! The seats are quite popular and during weekend games and good matchups you’ll have to stand in line to get these tickets, so get your dollar bills ready because going to a Rockies game will only cost you a few Washingtons.
Dinger
Dinger the triceratops is the official mascot of the Colorado Rockies. The mascot was chosen after a triceratops skull was found during the building of Coors Field and Dinger has quickly become a fan favorite since his debut. Keep your eyes peeled for Dinger as you never know what kind of shenanigans he’ll get into next.
High Scoring Games
Due to the high altitude in Colorado, the ball travels approximately nine percent further which means lots of high scoring games. The league has made some changes to the ball to help reduce the number of homers hit, but you’ll still be in for a high-scoring contest when attending a game at Coors Field.

Hey Baby
Played during the seventh inning stretch
Hey, hey hey baby!
I want to know if you’ll be my girl
Hey, hey hey baby!
I want to know if you’ll be my girl
When I saw you walking down the street
I said that’s a kind of girl I’d like to meet
She’s so pretty, Lord she’s fine
I’m gonna make her mine, all mineHey, hey hey baby!

Rocky Mountain Way
Spent the last year
Rocky Mountain way
Couldn’t get much higher
Out to pasture
Think it’s safe to say
Time to open fireAnd we don’t need the ladies
Cryin’ ’cause the story’s sad
‘Cause the Rocky Mountain way
Is better than the way we had
Whoa-oh-ohWell he’s tellin’ us this
And he’s tellin’ us that
Changes it ev’ry day
Says it doesn’t matter
Bases are loaded
And Casey’s at bat
Playin’ it play-by-play
Time to change the batterAnd we don’t need the ladies
Cryin’ ’cause the story’s sad, uh huh
Rocky Mountain way
Is better than the way we had
Yeah-ah-ah
