Baseball: adults - good / kids - bad

I recently went to a Triple A baseball game, it was me, pocahauntis and her two children(4-7). It was a wonderful day, great weather to check out a ball game AND the home team ACTUALLY won for once LoL. I LOVE BASEBALL! For me, an adult (loosely) checking out a game is always a hit when the sun is beaming down with a brewski in your hands. Even if youre a chick and dont like baseball, at least this is a great chance to work on your tan, spend time with your man and not have to talk with him:D Or take it as an opportunity to actually HAVE a conversation with your intimate other. Baseball diamonds are so "chill", very relaxed...christ, if i had to tell someone that i was going to die in 6 months, i would do it at a ball game lol.

Here is the only thing i dont like about triple A baseball, the price of tix...not for the adults, but for the kids. mainly because kids dont have any interest in baseball, they might watch it but they have no fu@king idea of whats really taking place. one of the children that was with me was 4, couldnt believe he made it til the 7th inning before it was home time. the only thing that kept him content that long was that he wanted the chips that i bought him -and- the mascots that were running around acting like jackasses.

Prices for kids under the age of 7 should be NOTHING, im talking about free baby. at the very least toss in some vouchers for hotdogs and a soda pop. price of admission for a child is a ripoff, the only reason being...they arent really watching the game! maybe two for ten bucks or something for those between the ages of 7-10, then start charging full admission for the older kids that actaully give a shiat in regards to whats actually going on at the ballpark.

Now this may sound kinda crazy, but when you compare baseball to other things that you could do with your children or children you know, like:

bowling - go carting - lazer tag - junior hockey or an amusement park / fair ...

taking a kid out for a ball game ($8) and spending another 5-7 bucks on lousy food ($8-15) for each kid plus whoever else youre with, spouse/girlfriend/mistress... it doesnt come across as being the most economical choice for someone trying to entertain a youth. You dont get the BANG for your BUCK with BASEBALL.
