Dayton Dragons woohoo!

Ah yes, I owe a post about the Dayton Dragons game on Friday.

The Dragons have recently broken a record; they have had the most consecutive sellout home games in all of pro sports.  I don't know about you, but I would say that is one heck of a big deal!  The Dragons began playing in 2000 at Fifth Third Field, in Dayton, OH.  My father has had season tickets for every season.  I don't recall the 2000 season very well; that was the year my mom died.  The following year, he was remarried; and I did go to some games with him and my step-mom; and when I moved to IL, I came back for games here and there over the summers.

Dayton fans take their baseball seriously, as do I.  The Dragons, a minor league team for the Cincinnati Reds, have produced many good players over the years; Dunn, Pena, Stubbs, Votto... just to name a few.

Catching up on an old post.  This is how unorganized I am right now. *sigh*

I went to see the Cincy Reds play the Cleveland Indians on July 3; first time ever I was at the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, OH.  It was pretty fun, very hot, and it's a very nice park!  I grew up at Riverfront, watching Pete Rose try to break the hitting record.  My dad took us to ballgames all the time.  I love the sport.  Dad was supposed to go to the game, he's a big Indians AND Reds fan, but it was so hot that day, he bowed out.  I don't blame him really.  I met my brother in his place.
