My First baseball game

We had been to the Tiger’s (they are the local Detroit team) baseball game. We bought the tickets in black (I must admit that I was happy to know that such things happen here also :)).

Since we were in early, we looked around the stadium, got our pictures taken, watched the players practicing and chatted with people next to us.

Just before the game started, the electronic boards were advertising that we could get Pizzas that usually cost about 8 dollars for just 1 dollar if the Tigers scored 8 or more runs. That was really something to look forward to!

They served beers and cocktails inside the stadium. As the game progressed, people were sloshed and became wild and rowdy. The F and B words were being uttered every time the players botched things up!

The best part was, whenever things became a little quiet, the electronic boards would display things like CLAP CLAP or MAKE NOISE or ROAR ROAR or MAKE A MEXICAN WAVE and people would immediately start doing those things!!!

It was more interesting to watch the people and their antics than the actual baseball game (I didn't understand the game at all).

The tigers won the game but scored only 5 runs. We didn't get the 1 Dollar Pizza that I was wishing we could get :(.
