Take me out to the ballgame!

Bookies Bar & Grill before the game.
My little fan
Date 13/52
Theme: Take me out to the ball game!
Location: Detroit
Day/Time: Friday 1:10

Opening Day for the Detroit Tigers has become a favorite tradition of ours. In Michigan, you never know what the weather will be like.  One day you could be in shorts eating ice cream and the next day you could be shoveling snow. Last week, I packed up all the winter gear and of course as luck would have it - we needed it.  However, we were dumb optimistic and dressed for the promised degrees of "in the 50's".  I don't think it got above 40 and with the winds it felt even colder!!!  BUT....

We had a great time! We hung out with a bunch of friends and supported our struggling economy.  We were so cold we ended up heading out a tad early and grabbing dinner.  It was nice hanging out with my hubby, seeing the Tigers win and getting our date in before the busy weekend.

  1. What a fun date! We went as a family to Sundays game and left at the top of the seventh. Which is right when the game turned from "most boring game ever" to "most amazing game!" oh well :-)

  2. I'm sure that was a fun date - as a foreigner I'm not sure what lots of the post meant (including the comment above) but glad you had a good time!

    Hope the sun shines for you soon xo
