What changes in San Diego?

Petco Park holds about 42,000 a block from the Gaslamp, so on overlap nights ballpark crowds and Convention Center traffic meet at the same intersections.

What should the San Diego crowd-control crew brief cover at Petco Park and East Village?

Petco Park's roughly 42,000-person footprint sits beside the Gaslamp Quarter and across Harbor Drive from Convention Center activity. On overlap nights, the crowd plan therefore needs shared intersections and pedestrian approaches, not just ballpark gates.

What goes on the San Diego call sheet?

Place queue, credential, wayfinding, and egress posts against the current street and event maps; identify where venue security takes over; and give each zone a communication route. Call times should account for convention traffic, while any closure or screening change must come from the named onsite authority.
