When I was a kid, going to a baseball game was just that.
We went to a baseball game.
Our family would get in the car and we’d arrive at Shea Stadium or Yankee Stadium just before the first pitch. Sure, sometimes we would get there in time to watch some batting practice, but for the most part our experience was watching the game.
Today, the experience is a whole new ballgame, and that is clearly evident for families who take in a Mets game at Citi Field. In fact, the team is currently in their second year of branding their weekend home games with special themes.
