Are we even at the Royals game?

Since I had a little boy, I have longed for the day that we could pick up and go to a day game. Well, today was that day. Thanks to the new Outfield Experience, I think I can safely say we had more outfield experience than game experience, but thus is modern sports. Get used to it. How many of you can honestly say you go for the game, not for the hotdogs, peanuts and post-game fireworks?

They did have a fun time. Only a few families went and once we met up and got the ticket situation all settled, I think we all had a good time. The kids sure were worn out afterwards. All that running around and playing will do that to you.

While watching the game, Sam and I had a memorable discussion about how farts do not really impress girls. I don't think he believes me.

Ticket transition required some waiting. No problem: Sam and Kate show me their muscles!

The wait to bat at the Little K was longer than the wait to get inside! Note, Evan's not thrilled with the waiting.

Sam hitting in the little K! Look at the intensity!

Look at the ball go mommy! (Hee! She really did hit it later.)



The big moment was worth the wait. Especially for us, as Evan took the bases backwards!

Sam on the Slugger carousel. I have to say, I encouraged the horse selection just so I could get this picture!

Food was a big part of the experience for all. Especially Kate. (This is staged, but she had just done this to get the last of the popcorn just beforehand.)


See. We did watch the game for a while.
