Take Me Out to the Ballgame

|

We're not well-to-do, but H looks for deals all over the internet. Yesterday, he found a great deal on tickets to the Rays game, so we commenced our four day holiday weekend last night by attending our first family baseball game.

Tampa Bay Rays

It was really fun...and I don't even like baseball. Well, I didn't, but maybe I do now.

Inside Tropicana Field

We played the Toronto Blue Jays and creamed 'em.

Swing

It was pretty awesome. The crowd was pepped and enthusiastic. I think there was a concerted effort by The Powers That Be to make the throng feel a part of the action. Cheering and cowbell ringing(?) were greatly encouraged. There were various contests for the audience. Many baseballs were given away. I think Baseball is trying hard to return to its status as America's National Pastime. It certainly is a good outing for families. Even at full price, baseball is much more affordable than football.

We all had such a great time; I think we may return.
