Atlanta Braves
Tuesday night Michael, Christian and I headed down to an Atlanta Braves game. This was Christian first time ever at a game, and Michael and I first game in a long time. We got the tickets through Michael’s work, so after dropping off Colin at my sister’s we headed to Atlanta. Christian had falling asleep in the car and we stopped at the ATM before hitting the highway, while we were there Christian woke up and asked where his shoes were? After looking around, he had walked out of the house with NO SHOES! Don’t ask me how that happened; I guess he was so excited he failed to make sure his flip flops were on. So a quick stop at Wal-Mart to pick up another pair fixed the problem.
We arrived a little after 7 and made our way to the 755 club Delta Sky Lounge. It’s one level of the stadium that is glass enclosed where you can sit and watch the game and order food. It was very nice, but very crowded since the game started off with a rain delay. We eventually made our way to our seats, where we sat for two hours under an umbrella waiting for the game to start. We had AWESOME seats; we were so close and close to home plate. We then decided that sense the rain didn’t seem to be letting up anytime soon, we would walk around the stadium and let Christian enjoy somewhat of this experience. He even got a Tomahawk! Which he seems to call a hamatawk! We left, went and got an ice cream and picked up Colin before heading home. Only to turn the TV on and the game had just started, they were in the first inning. Oh well, Christian still had a great time, and we will be catching another game this summer!
