First baseball game

Big guy went to his first baseball game last weekend. And I think he did pretty well! We went to the Camden Riversharks game, as I didn't want to spend a ton of money for a place we were possibly only going to be at for an hour. It turned out to be the perfect place to spend the first game! We had great seats right behind home plate. And an awesome view of the Ben Franklin Bridge, where we watched cars, buses, and the train go by. We ate a ton of food- Auntie Anne's pretzels, slushies, soft serve ice cream and lots of water, as it was really hot out, but luckily the sun stayed tucked behind some clouds. Following the opening ceremonies (of which there were a lot) and downing an immense amount of food, big guy watched/danced through an inning and a half before getting antsy. We took a walk through the stadium, visited the dodgy playground area, got really overheated, and then went to the gift shop, which was disappointing, but we managed to find a junky yellow monkey and a squishy ball. When we tried to return to our seats, he was freaking out and a very nice older usher came by and gave us the OK to go home by saying, "I think he's done!" Overall, about two hours of baseball fun!
