Coors Field, located in Denver, Colorado is the home field of the National League's Colorado Rockies. It is named for the Coors Brewing Company of Golden, Colorado, which purchased the naming rights to the park prior to its completion in 1995. The Rockies played their first two seasons, 1993 and 1994, in Mile High Stadium before moving to Coors Field, two blocks from Union Station in Denver's Lower Downtown (or LoDo) neighborhood. The park includes 63 luxury suites and 4,500 club seats.

Coors Field has a reputation as a home run-friendly park that, arguably, equals Chicago's venerable Wrigley Field, and earned it the nickname "Coors Canaveral" among critics [1] (a reference to Cape Canaveral, the home of the space shuttle). Though the fences are actually more distant than in most other facilities, the high altitude of the city (which is indeed about one mile above sea level), decreases air resistance on batted balls.

Other factors include the relatively low height of the fences and very limited foul territory area. In an attempt to limit the number of home runs, balls are placed in a humidor before games in order to increase their weight. [2]

Coors Field was originally planned to be somewhat smaller, seating only 43,800. However, after the Rockies' first season, plans were altered during construction, and new seats, mostly in the center field bleacher section, were added.
