🏨⚾ GIVEAWAY ALERT! ⚾🏨 We’re celebrating San Diego’s rich baseball legacy with an unforgettable @westgatehotel x Padres Giveaway! One lucky winner will win the ultimate stay-and-play package just steps from Petco Park.

Why this giveaway matters:
San Diego baseball history starts with tuna — literally. The Westgate Hotel was founded by the owners of the Westgate-California Tuna Packing Corporation, one of the city’s biggest employers. Before building the hotel in 1970, they built a cutting-edge stadium for their beloved Padres in 1958: Westgate Park.

Declared more comfortable than Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park, it became the Padres’ home during one of the most successful decades in franchise history — winning 3 Pacific Coast League titles and helping launch the team into the Major Leagues in 1969.

Though the park is gone, its spirit lives on at The Westgate Hotel — just a short walk from Petco Park. It’s the perfect stay for baseball fans and lovers of the game’s golden era.
