Opening day

Whether it's a little kid racing the mascot around the bases, a dog catching frisbees, or a raffle giving away Red Sox tickets the fans enjoyed every bit of it. Entertainment takes many forms, some take money and others are making a child's dream come true. Every game isn't going to end in a victory, so for that reason alone the Navigator's wisely make sure that other events can still be there to enjoy. Opening day is huge in this regard I believe. Since the teams are different every year a fan has no idea what to expect. By announcing the Colleges and Universities each player attends the fans get a good idea of what kind of talent they are looking at. Winning was of course a great way to start the season but the fans also got a taste of the other forms of entertainment along with the quality/prices of the food. No ball park could survive without food and beverages, it just wouldn't be the same.

P.S.

Signing autographs by far is the coolest thing I have done since I learned how to do a reverse flip off a diving board. Not only did I feel like a star, I felt like the kids really had a good time at the game. In the end that is all that is important, without the fans this game wouldn't be what is it today.
