For our summer event, the company I work for gave us the choice of taking our family to a Royals game or going to Worlds of Fun. We have Royals fever at our house, so the Royals game was an easy choice.
Alcides Escobar is Karsten's favorite Royals player, so when we heard it was Escobar bobblehead night for the first 20k fans, we arrived early so we wouldn't have a disappointed little boy. Arriving at the park so long before the game began gave us time to go see the Hall of Fame and World Series Trophy!
George Brett was number five, so they built a giant FIVE from the same number of balls that he hit during his time as Royal! It was very cool to see!
I think Scott and I were more excited to see the World Series Trophy than the boys were!
I told the boys to pretend they were holding up this giant ball - I don't think they really understood what I meant. :)
There was a ton of fun Royals stuff to check out. We didn't read everything on the walls - if you are a museum person, you would love the Hall of Fame!
We watched the Astros batting practice for a bit, then walked around the stadium on the lower level. I took this picture while we were cutting through the Diamond Club section - oo bad our seats weren't there!
Liam chose popcorn for his snack at the game and Karsten chose cotton candy. Liam very carefully doled out the popcorn piece by piece.
The Royals started out strong, but the second inning didn't go so well and they scored 7 runs! We still had fun!
We were getting a little bored towards the end when the score was 10 to 3 with the Royals losing. Sunglasses are always entertaining.
