Default A Day at the Ballpark - Star Wars Day

Just the boys. My 3 y.o. and my good friend, and me.

Bleacher seats at Oracle Park. SF Giants have a great fanbase. I didn’t stop my son from walking around the bleacher aisles. Most people enjoyed the jolly kid visiting.

The Star Wars theme had them playing rookie sounds and light sabers after strikeouts. It was a fun twist. Too bad we didn’t make it early enough for the souvenir giveaway, but the stadium had a sellout crowd.

Everything was expensive, but we know that. I went in well aware of that. I was able to get a hangar of Heritage ‘25 that didn’t pull anything great. Blasters? $40. Big pass.

Bought the kiddo a baseball, cotton candy, hot dog, cheeseburger and fries, and a great memory.

Oh! I happened to win $17.50 on my Kentucky derby bet!
