Take Me Out to the Ballgame

My son is an individual. Despite the fact that his parents are crazy football fans and could care less about baseball, he decided when he was about 2 that he loved baseball. He’d willingly sit and watch it on TV. We’ve even Tivoed a few games for him or let him watch portions of Sports Center. We’ve taken him to a few minor league games in the past, but tonight we took our oldest two children to their first Major League Baseball Game.

As we drove to the ballpark, my son started singing the song and said, “Come on everyone join me”

So please join us…

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

Take me out to the crowds (hmm…not quite)

Buy me some peanuts

and crackerjacks ballpark franks

I don’t care if I never get back

Let me root, root, root for the home team

If they don’t win it’s a shame

For it’s one, two, three strikes your out

At the old….ball….game!!!

A good time was had by all. And the looks on my kids faces as they took in the sights, sounds, and tastes of the ball field was my absolute favorite part.
