Downside of Chavez ravine is that there is nowhere proximate to the stadium for food or beers. Even of you were open to walking a few miles, it just isn't really possible. The stadium is more or less its own exit off of the freeway, and, as the name indicates, is in a little ravine surrounded by parking lots.
Other than that aspect, which I love about the older stadiums and the movement towards relocating new stadiums in more urban settings, the experience at the stadium was very enjoyable, so cal weather playing no small part. Dodger dogs occupy a tier below the gas station hot n ready, so skip that unless you're purely pursuing palliative measures related to high levels of beer consumption, although that too may be unwise.
