On Sunday, our family went to see our annual game at Dodger Stadium. We actually live about ten minutes' drive from the stadium, but with annual ticket price hikes and the difficulty of going to a game with small children, we only make it out to see a baseball game about once a year.Though an evening game would be cooler at this time of year, with our children's bedtime around 8:30 pm, we have been going to Sunday afternoon games lately. Unfortunately, the weather on Sunday was unusually warm and humid for this time of year, so our seats in the shade of the Top Deck didn't bring us any relief.
A former colleague at work gave us a couple of adorable Dodgers outfits for our daughter as gifts, and lots of people commented on how cute our daughter was in her Dodgers cheerleader outfit.
I was planning to buy the Dodgers' famous garlic fries for our daughter and a Dodger Dog or two, but the garlic fries are not sold in the relatively small top deck section, so we had to settle for nachos with cheese sauce and salsa. Contrary to what I have read on the internet and the Los Angeles Times lately, the food lines were not unreasonable (though they might have been once the game started).
We got there early, about 12:30, but we ended up leaving about 2. The weather was just too miserable, and our daughter started getting restless, and it was difficult to watch the game.
