The S.F. Giants are \u201copening a new chapter in their history\u201d this season and have \u201chopes that they will get back to the 3 million mark in attendance, something they haven\u2019t seen since before the pandemic,\u201d according to Ann Killion of the S.F. CHRONICLE. The team hopes the \u201cnew energy\u201d brought by manager Tony Vitello results in another bump in ticket sales after last season delivered a \u201csignificant increase … from 2.6 million to 2.9 million.\u201d The Giants this season are increasing the presence of the \u201cpopular Gigantes jersey and the franchise\u2019s wider embrace of Latino culture and heritage.\u201d The club will wear the jerseys for every Saturday home game, and those games \u201cwill be designated Fiesta Gigantes, with festivities and mariachi music — something the Dodgers have included at games for years.\u201d Meanwhile, the \u201coddest new thing\u201d that will be seen around Oracle Park is the Giants\u2019 partnership with Chick-fil-A, which \u201cwill brand the foul poles.\u201d There are Chick-fil-A locations in the Bay Area, but \u201cnone within the city limits of San Francisco.\u201d Additionally, the QSR is \u201cstill widely associated with funding anti-LBGTQ organizations.\u201d The company has \u201csince backed off its official funding of hate groups, but this is still an odd embrace by the franchise that has made Pride celebrations a big part of its community outreach\u201d (S.F.
