You know what's fun? A minor league game - you're that much closer to
the action and you get involved. I could care less who's winning, I
just want to be close enough to feel a part of it. My wife's firm
summer outing was a minor league game in Tennessee a few years ago. I
had a lot of fun, the game ended with a walk-off homer and fireworks -
you can't beat that.
Even though we have the Braves I think there is a minor league team
reasonably close now... wouldn't mind checking out Arena Football or a
Hockey game as well, haven't seen either of those.
