Number 79-Great American Ballpark




This past baseball season I had the pleasure to attend 2 games at Great American Ballpark. It was a really cool experience. The environment is really cool. Something that I found really neat, especially being a Reds fan, was all of the history that was shown throughout the concourse. Then to walk out into where the ballpark was and see the championship pennants and retired jerseys and others honored was really cool. Something that I was also able to take part of was the induction of 3 players into their Hall of Fame. The Gala dinner that they had was simply outstanding and really such an amazing experience. This is just what the Reds are about. It really truly feels like a family and being inside of the ballpark makes that feel even more so. One thing that I would say is get there early. Not only would you have a better chance at recieving a promotional item, but watch Reds Live, the pregame show. This even takes place along the third base line in the concourse. Even if you catch part of the show it is still a cool experience. Another thing is the fact that they have a cool section for the kids along the first base line near the foul pole. Even if you get bad seats, it is still really fun to be there and be able to watch one of the greatest games ever, in one of the nicest stadiums in MLB.
