Great Stadium, local feeling. For seats: Home crowd sits behind the goal, awesome non-stop chanting (the way it should be). Away crowd (non-stop chanting!) slightly up to the right. Everything is friendly and family oriented though. For just the best views: pick the side (behind the goal, you feel far away). They were figuring out catering, the lines will certainly improve at the next matches. Let's go Cosmos!

Once upon a time, Hinchliffe Stadium stood as a beacon of sports venues. Over the decades, it fell into decay and disrepair, finally deteriorating into a proverbial white elephant in a blighted neighborhood, laying fallow for three decades; existing in a twilight status caught between condemnation as developers sought its demolition, and preservationists bemoaned for renovations. A few years back, to much hue and applause, renovations were indeed commenced, and to the tune of approximately 94 million dollars, the politicians and the press waxed poetic with grandiose declarations of how Hinchliffe Stadium was to soon become a bastion of ball venues and other activities. The stadium would resume hosting football games, and added what they thought was the crowning acquisition to the stadium - an independent minor league baseball team. Surely this was to be a successful endeavor. Sorry to say, one visit to this venue left me with one glaring question. If what they did to Hinchliffe Stadium cost 94 million, WHERE DID THE REST OF THE MONEY GO? The renovations that I observed, consisted of nothing more than bolting down a few thousand plastic seat bottoms (no backs) onto the previously

I went to Hinchliffe Stadium two years ago to see a great part of history. I've always had an admiration for not just the game of baseball but for baseball stadiums as well. Hinchliffe Stadium has a rich history behind it with minor league baseball, negro league baseball, and other sports. It was amazing knowing this stadium was built so long ago and has that old look with odd dimensions, which adds to its beauty. The world was much different back in 1932, baseball was segregated, and only day games were played. It made me think of a time I only read about in books. A beautiful ballpark.

Fun story about this stadium… back in 2015, during 50 Days of New Jersey, Geoff and I visited Paterson Falls and, while walking around the town, visited the then shuttered and dilapidated stadium. Geoff mentioned “wouldn’t it be nice if a minor league team played here?” A “few” years later, here they are!! Couple of things to know. This is a young stadium, with lots of work still ahead - parking, for example, is not advertised or easy to figure out. There is a garage next to the stadium ($7), but we didn’t know about it - we found street parking and walked over. The seat sections aren’t well marked (just a piece of paper taped to the wall) and most of the park is stadium seating (bleachers, metal, without backs). Someone said seat cushions are prohibited, which is a pity. After a while it’s hard to be comfortable on the metal seats. Lots of people opted to stand. The concessions are just okay - though the folks working them are super nice and friendly! No programs or score card!! I would have loved to have one, specially since today was opening day. They do have jerseys and caps (outside the stadium), but no pins or patches 😕 Another word about seating - avoid seating l
