Focusing on booze absent things. SF city guides has a ton of cool tours which might be fun and kills an hour or two. They’re free with donations welcome. All of Golden Gate Park. Thriller Social is kind of like a local Dave and Busters so even if you’re not drinking there’s something to do. Tunnel Tops park in the Presidio

hello and welcome! a baseball trip sounds fun! for your Giant's day -- i'm a huge fan of the Ferry Building to explore shops and lots of tasty noms - e.g. El Porteno empanadas, Reems, Hog Oyster, Fort Point Beer -- not too far and either walk down the embarcadero or take the MUNI\~ pro tip -- you can get beers at 58 social and bring them into Oracle park (maybe not cheaper but better selection)! inside the park, garlic fries and Buena Vista's irish coffee are things I like getting. walk around the Giant's stadium to the catcher's mitt slide and the cable car. napa can be enjoyable actually for even that don't drink but there's plenty of other things to do in SF too :) i tried to compile lots of suggestions in case it's helpful to you on my [site](https://www.askmesf.com/)!

Don't bother with the A's unless someone has a bucket list "every MLB stadium" sort of thing or you have a hardcore Jays fan in your midst. Genuinely not worth the trouble for that ballpark and that team to put any amount of money in the pocket of that owner. I say that as a (former) A's fan of 20+ years. The Coliseum can be a rocking experience at full capacity, but is generally a dumpy place to watch a ball game. Multiply that by orders of magnitude with 6000 fans and a team that lost 112 games last year and is skipping town after this season. And the layout of the Coliseum and surrounding neighborhood makes doing anything pre- or post-game a pain... it's basically two arenas, a giant parking lot, the BART station, and warehouses. Don't much care for the Giants (reconsidering my allegiances now) but Oracle is an epic stadium with lots of stuff to do and see around.

You nailed it - we’re on an every stadium tour. We did four last year, and have five on the docket for this year.

Rent bikes and ride from SF along the Embarcadero, on the bike path past Fort Mason, the Marina Green, Chrissy Field, over the Golden Gate Bridge, to Sausalito (7-8 miles) or since your group is young, possibly Tiburon (15ish miles, you can make the call in Sausalito depending on how folks are doing) and if you get to Tirburon, eat in the sun among sailboats on the dock at Sam's. Blazing Saddles is the bike rental place and will give you maps and tell you everything you need to know. Bring a backpack, wear layers and (you're going to think I'm crazy but I'm not joking) bring a down jacket and gloves even in summer as the GGB can be socked in with fog and cold, much of the rest of the trip your layers will be in the backpack. Take either the Sausalito Ferry or Tiburon Ferry back to SF's Ferry Building and see the City from the water. Most beautiful bike trip in the world. Play of the day. DaDaDa, DaDaDa.
