Return Of Giants Brings $100 Parking Back To San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - The Giants are raising their third World Series banner in five years, but the happiest people on opening day may not ever set foot inside AT&T Park.
Parking garage owners have seen the 40,000 plus headed the stadium and have found a way to join in on the fun: $100 parking.
Hold on to your wallets @sfgiants fans! This parking lot just went up to $100! https://t.co/6adZ9ZEKDA

$100 for parking for the home opener at AT&T? That's disgusting.

By comparison, tickets to the game were available on Stubhub for as little as $75 an hour before the game.
So, fans in NY and Boston really have nothing to complain about:

During last year's playoff run prices in the $80-$100 range were posted in the area immediately around AT&T Park.
