I think Dodgers games are extremely fun even if your rooting for the opposite team, it’s just amazing to be in the stadium. My most amazing day was when I went to the Dodgers game with my cousins, brother, and sister-in law. Throwing peanuts at Giants fans and random people made my day amazing. Most people weren’t even noticing that we were throwing the peanuts at them. Ishmael was making it obvious because he was laughing
Braves Game On August 20, 2011 I went to an Atlanta Braves baseball game. When I found out I was going to the game I was excited to go to the game and wanted to go sooner. The night before the Baseball game I stayed up until 1 o’clock in the morning so I could sleep all the way to Atlanta. I got up at eight o’clock the next morning to get all the stuff we needed for the game like a baseball glove, drinks, and stuff. We left around 9 and stopped at the Wal-Mart in Eatonton to get a soft sided cooler because they wouldn’t let you in the stadium with a normal one so once we got the cooler and some more drinks.
One day he learned how to play baseball and he became really good at it. Everyone knew him for his cottage cheese eating but now they knew hm for his talents in baseball. Don Jenkins was known as the boy who could slam the cottage cheese out of the park. He won every game and didn't even need any other players on his team. He just slammed it over and over out of the park.
My dad, two brothers, and I were sitting in the first row of the outfield when Bobby Higginson, a Detroit Tigers player, came up to hit for batting practice. Sure enough after two swings he hit one all the way to the wall. The ball was right in front of us on the field but we could not reach it. A player picked the ball up, and I started screaming, “Sir! Can I please have that ball?” He looked up at me in the stands and tossed the ball up.
But when the right fielder got there he completely missed the ball allowing the first two runners to score with ease. I was devastated. Then rest of the inning went by with no more trouble and the game continued. When back on the mound for the sixth, I had gotten the first two outs easily but the next hitter did the unthinkable. He jacked a solo homerun to left field off of me and they led by one.
On May 15th of 2002, the Mets were playing the Montreal Expos in Shea Stadium and my father had obtained two front row seat tickets to the game via his business partner. I was thrilled for the whole week leading up to the game because I was finally going to see my hero play. Sitting down in the front row seats was an
Matthew Willis DEVE 0880-105A People come from all over the country to see all the magnificent floats driving by and throwing beads and stuffed animals to people shouting the loudest. Then when it’s over people have barbeques outside Where the floats just passed by, people cook chicken, hotdogs, ribs, and much more. Finally when everyone is done they go home with bags full of beads and stuffed animals and see how much they have and maybe throw some next year. Mardi Gras has been a tradition in Louisiana for many years. There are a lot of floats that pass by on Mardi Gras.
As I handed my ticket to the middle age man with his recent receding hair line, another man smiled and said “welcome to the ball park” in a ear piercing voice. I proceed onward stumbling through the waves of team accessories realizing that I stuck out like a sore thumb wearing only neutral colors. The aroma of ball park food hit my nostrils like a car crashing in to a wall. The food ranges from hot dogs to cotton candy, Nachos to cola anything you can think of the ball park had it. After nearly drowning in a sea of fans, families and Television workers I finally made it to my seat directly across from third base.
With that being said, the creation of the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club is absolutely the origin of baseball. They created organization through rules, some of which have stuck with the sport of baseball all the way up until now. The team’s stability originated from their leader. Dr. Daniel Adams was voted president by the players a total of 6 times and with that kind of strong, supportive leader in charge they were able to stay successful. Because the team was successful, they gained the success of spectators and with that respect came a deeper interest in baseball by the viewers.
The film was released on April 7th, 1993, just 4 months before my day of birth. In the movie, Scott Smalls tells of his first summer after he moved to Los Angeles. In 1962, Smalls moved with his mother and stepfather to a new neighborhood. Smalls, as he is referred to in the movie, was excited about the new opportunity but initially, struggled to make any friends. One afternoon, he decided to follow a group of guys from the neighborhood he just moved to, and watch them play a pickup game of baseball at a small field, which they called the “sandlot.” At first Smalls was a little tentative to join their game because he feared he would be ridiculed by the other kids on account of his lack of baseball knowledge and experience.
