    And it was everything and more than what I thought it would be.
    I was so in awe of everything [​IMG] But yeah.. I'll let ya know how the game went..

    The Braves scored 2 runs in the 3rd inning and then it was kinda dead with no one scoring any runs.. But then the Marlins scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th! And I was like "NO! I cant come to a Braves game and them not win" But then in the top of the 9th, the Braves equalized it out and we went into extra innings which made me really happy! So nothing happend in the 10th inning but when we got into the 11th inning, the Marlins scored a run which made me kinda nervous cuz I knew the Braves HAD to score a run or else they would lose. So there was someone at first base and someone at second and there was 1 out. And Chipper Jones stepped up to bat and my Dad yells out, "Score a homerun, Chipper!" And the FIRST pitch that gets thrown, Chipper bats it over the fence! Oh my goodness it was great! My dad was so stoked that he called the winning play!

    It was such a fun experience. I was getting SO into it. Cheering, and doing all the claps, and doing all the yells and stuff. And it was really great to share something like this with my dad [​IMG] I cant wait for the nxt one (June 18th against the RED SOX!!! Hell yeah)

    But goodness me the food was expensive[​IMG]

    Sprite: $3.25
    Pretzel: $4.00
    HUGE peice of pizza: $5.00
    Bag of Cotton Candy: $5.00
    Spending time with your dad at a baseball game: priceless

    You should submit this to that Card company. They are having a Contest.
    Best one gets made into a commercial. Dunno about Cash rewards tho...

    Great Story too. My old man took me to a night game in Vegas once. I went with my Big bro on a july 4th night game. My lullaby voic is Vin Skully. LoL!

    ahaha but i was thinkin about it.. and im gonna be at the BRAVES stadium.. surrounded by BRAVES fans.. with my dad, who is a BRAVES fan.. i would just feel kinda outta place. PLUS they never do any cheers or claps during the opposing teams batting.. only the braves, cuz its their stadium...

    maybe you could root for the braves, but secretly want the red sox to win. i wouldnt want you to get mobed or have beer thrown on ya for rooting for the wrong team :eek:

    i just think the red sox are cooler...but im judging this all on the name of the teams. red sox is a cooler name then braves in my opinion :D
