"It's the adult senior ditch day. It's ditching work and school and enjoying baseball and beer," said fan Andrew Impson.

Fans said it was worth braving the cold weather.

"Why not brave this cold for Rockpile tickets on Opening Day? It's a great experience," said fan Krystan McCord.

New to Coors Field this season is the rooftop deck which is a standing room only area. Tickets wills start at $14 and that includes a $6 concession or merchandise credit.
