Take Me Out to the Ball Game!


We went to the Las Vegas 51s baseball game tonight (with the tickets we won) and we had a GREAT time!

Our seats ended up being "dugout" seats so we were on the ground, just to the left of home plate. I've never sat so close before, and it was awesome. And everyone was really nice. There weren't too many people there, so the 51s workers down in the dugout let Adam and Grace roam around into different seats, and gave them lots of suckers. AND to make it even better, it was free t-shirt night.

Does it get any better? Seriously.





The only real disappointment came from Grace, who thought we were going to play baseball, and yelled "MY TURN!" about every 2 seconds. Once she discovered Cosmo, though, she was okay with just watching. She loved that ugly alien. Adam notsomuch. He thought he was creepy.

We had so much fun cheering for our team who, unfortunately, lost 4-0.

Adam was a bit bummed that no foul balls flew our way (I was happy... worried about getting hit on the head). But, he was THRILLED when he saw our TV news weather guy sitting a few seats down.

It felt very celebrity-ish. :)

It was so fun, and I'm so glad that we got to go!

It looks like you had a great time!Thank you for sharing...we had such a rough day yesterday (who would have thought that a cut on the thumb took over two hours and over 50 stitches to get stitched back together! Bad table saw blade!)that it brought a smile to all of our faces.

I'm with Adam. That thing IS creepy. It's fun getting to sit up close like that, and it makes it even more fun when it's free.
