Monster Madness

It's official. The green monster is all it's cracked up to be. It is awesome! We arrived early enough to enjoy half of batting practice. The balls were flying up on the monster every few minutes. All of the kids around us got a ball to take home. The atmosphere was great and everyone was in a fantastic mood.



We went with Mike and Todd who also went to Fairfield. We were all pumped up!
Manny being Manny.




There are some awesome things about the monster that no one ever mentions. First, the monster has two snack bars. This means you spend no time in line and you're always enjoying the view. Second, there is a private bathroom. This is priceless. I walked in and the bathroom was clean and empty. Heaven!


Jacoby is dreamy.
We had the pleasure of sharing the monster with 20 members of the US Navy. Captain Ken Bull is one of the coolest guys on the planet. Bows and blows! It was incredibly refreshing to hear how many people passing by stopped to thank them for their service to the country. It also cracked us up how many ladies stopped to take a picture with the Navy dream boats!







The game ended and we weren't leaving. We had to be shooed out by security. That was the only way I was leaving the monster!

looks like you all had a fun time...especially if security is saying it's lights out time...hey wouldn't it be fun to be in there when those giant lights get shut off?!

That sounds like a challenge if I've ever heard one. Deal. Next time, I will hide under a seat until they turn the big lights off!
