Here Come The Rays!!


The Big O, The Tornado and I went to the Rays game yesterday. We had fun, as usual, and the Rays won a tight 3-2 contest. The lights partially went out, which was a little crazy, particularly since there were about 20,000 kids there on Parks and Rec day, and they all started screaming and shrieking. Once they threw the Bugs Bunny cartoon on the scoreboard though, everyone settled down.


The big fun from yesterday though was The Big O learning how to keep score. We've been to quite a few games over the past few years, and The Big O has gotten more and more into the games. Watching her write down the plays, asking what the proper notation on a deflection by the pitcher, it just made me feel good. Growing up going to games with my Dad was really special, learning how to keep score from him, it's really special. Thanks O, for letting me share in your fun.


We head back up tonight with a couple of The Big O's friends for the game and the Smashmouth concert. Should be a great time! Let's Go Rays!
