How to Go to a Baseball Game

I went to an Angels game tonight, and even though they lost, I still had a lot of fun. I love going to baseball games, and the experience you have will make some good memories. Here is how to enjoy yourself during this american past-time: 


1. Wear your team's colors 
Always support your team and show your spirit by sporting their colors (which for me, is red for the Anaheim Angels). You can even wear the jersey of your favorite player. 

2. Eat some peanuts and a hot dog (Or what I like, a soft pretzel) 
Even if you don't like them that much, having a hot dog at a baseball game is a must. Vendors are always roaming up and down the aisles with every kind of snack.

3. Don't get hit by a ball 
A girl tonight got hit by a foul ball a few rows in front of me and collapsed. Of course it wasn't her fault, but you've got to be careful and watch where the ball might land. Especially if you are as close to the field as we were, you should always be on the lookout for any fly balls. So either be prepared to catch it...or duck and let someone else have the ball.

4. Root for your home team 
Cheering for the players at bat definitely makes the game more fun and it might help your team score some runs. In many cases, game-goers start the wave and let it continue around the stadium to help get the crowd on their feet.


Of course this advice is obvious, but it will make the game a great time for everyone and complete the whole baseball experience. :)
