SAN DIEGO (NEWS 8) - The San Diego Padres season opener Thursday against the San Francisco Giants is a sellout.
According to Stubhub, the Padres saw a 44 percent jump in ticket sales this year compared to last year. If you did not get a ticket to game, there are plenty of activities to do around Petco Park like the two-day Opening Day Block Party.
The East Village Opening Day Block Party will feature local bands and DJs, baseball-themed beverages, and tons of tasty food.
Oh, and don't forget to bring your furry friends to the festivities on Pet Friday for the Pet Expo and Four-Legged Fashion Show where the most adorable roster in town will be showcased.
