One fun fact for San Diegans, did you know Garth Brooks had a short career with the San Diego Padres? He signed with the San Diego Padres for spring training in 1998 and 1999. He did not get a spot on the regular season roster, although he was offered a non-roster spot but declined it.

San Diego resident for over 10 years, I now call this beautiful city home. Originally from the Bay Area, I'm a California girl at heart. I love the outdoors, fitness, food, and a good craft beer (from San Diego of course).
