Marcus' PAO buddy Corey gave us tickets to attend the Mets Game the afternoon following the reception. Instead of bringing Chase along, who we envisioned running around and being crazy, we sent him to play at a friend's house and invited some of our friends, Brian & Jessica Westover. Let's be honest, Chase enjoyed this option way more, and we actually got to watch some of the game. Well, I did. Marcus enjoyed finding food. One of his favorite restaurants has a stand in the stadium, so the second he knew we were going, I am sure he had already began to plan his lunch purchase.
The game does a lot to celebrate fleet week with a fly over by the Super Hornets, the Secretary of the Navy throwing the first pitch, the USO Show Troupe singing... And since we got the tickets from Corey, we were in the section dedicated for all the military people and families. Memorial Day Weekend, Baseball, Military Uniforms, yep, a very American afternoon. It was a fun way to celebrate Memorial Day for sure.
We sat in center field -- which was actually really fun. Plus it was sunny with a breeze, so sitting outside was comfortable. |
The guy standing was very entertaining... super generous but definitely drunk. |
Enjoying baseball |
Oh, and the Mets actually won! We've never seen them win before :)
