From Rookie to Rough Rider

We got into the Frisco spirit by attending a Rough Riders baseball game. The whole scene is really fun--lots of excited Friscoians (?) in a really cool-looking ballpark (that Leo likened to a castle) all sweating to death but not complaining because they know it's going to get worse. (There actually was a breeze today.) 

Gus enjoyed his very first baseball game from the comfort of his stroller. He is sporting a hat that was actually the bowl that held Leo's ice cream. 


Leo and Frank in front of the ballpark castle.

Leo eating his ice cream out of said baseball cap bowl and wearing his new Rough Riders cap. (All the kids in Frisco are doing it.)


Gus LOVES to clap and I think this time was even at an appropriate moment.

We had lawn seats. Look at Gus in the background who is enjoying the shade from a giant sign.



The Frisco Rough Riders beat the San Antonio Missions 2 to 1, probably because of Leo's sideline coaching.

Fun time at the ball park...will you be returning any time soon?

That looks similar to the venue for the minor league games in Georgia. It's good you tried it out in May (when it's "cool").

I think we will go back but, like GR said, either really soon or to a night game because of the heat!
