When DH and I were first dating, he lived in Detroit. We went to a lot of baseball games during that time. He is a big baseball fan, and having three brothers, I know a lot about the game. I’m not such a fan as he is (few people are) but I really enjoy going to see a game live.
This evening we’re off to see the local AAA PCL club, the New Orleans Zephyrs. I got BOGO tickets, third base line, 16th row. Game starts at 6:00, with a lot to do before we go, but here I am writing a blog post for the first time in ages instead of getting busy.
I thought he would miss living in a city with a Major League team, but it’s become so expensive (in spite of the recent price cuts) to see a Major League game that I don’t think he minds so much. AAA ball is still fun, and the prize giveaways and cheesy stuff only add to the fun.
We hit a game here, compared to the big league down in San Diego, and liked the little one much better. It was a lot more fun.
I like going to see the Indy Indians, too. Victory Field is a great ballpark for a minor league team and when there are games on Friday nights they have FIREWORKS!
