It was quit experance as I expected and it was long days at the ballpark and I thought I would share some thoughts on the events.
On Friday I went to the Fanfest and as I went I was a bit worry that it wasn't worth the $15 dollars but as I went and discovered that there was quit alot history on display and alot of fun things for familys.It was a well organize event that had something for everyone and was well worth the $15 dollars.
On Saturday it was a day of rest so I went to the movies.To the Naberhood classics theatre.They where showing JAWS in 3D.But that's another post.
On Sunday they started with the futures game and to be truefull with you I enjoyed it but it realy is over hype event.So they may be the future but today they are only minor leaguers who play like it.
Ok I don't have anything againt them and I'm sure we all see alot from them for many years to come but It just is so hard to get excited about watching that.
After the futures game was the Legends & Celebrity Softball game.Don't get me wrong but it left me with the felling that it was more like putting on a show then playing a game.Sure I enjoyed the show but I think they would be mouch better if they realy played for you one last time.
Then they closed out the night with a counting crows concert.It was a short one but what do you expect but it was a good concert anyway.
Well, Overall on sunday it's a debate on if it was worth the $25 bucks but it was close and I guess the giveaway of the Ben Sheets bobblehead which I did get makes it worth it.
On Monday the Home Run Derby.I always thought it was a over rated from of batting practice but gladly I was wrong.Some of them shots that Sammy Sosa had was pritty amazing.There where some good home runs and it was a real fun night well worth the $50 dollar price tag.
Then Tonight the game it's self.Yes it was a bummer that it had to end they way it did but it was quit a game anyway and just a winderfull pregame show and I enjoyed quit alot and I realy don't mind that $125 dollars is alot to pay for a game.
