Hot Rods Opening Night

Spencer has talked about going to the opening night Hot Rods game for weeks.  Yesterday it rained on & off all day, but they were saying on FB that they would play the game RAIN OR SHINE.  So after I got Spencer I went to Mrs. Jessica's to pick up Morgan from dance.  She told me "I'm not going to the ballgame & sitting in the rain."  She didn't want to miss dance or gymnastics.  Mrs. Jessica said she was more than welcome to stay with her until we got back.  So she stayed & "helped" Mrs. Jessica with her other classes.  Spencer & I headed to BG.  It came a FLOOD on us on the way.  We had stopped & bought poncho's to keep us dry.  We got to the stadium around 5:15 because they were handing out shirts to the first 1,000 people through the gates.  We got our shirts & went to stand inside the gift shop to get out of the rain.  There were 9 ball players signing shirts.  Spencer was excited that he got his shirt signed.  I didn't take my camera because I didn't want to get it wet, but I tried to get Spencer to take his picture with some of the players (but Spencer being Spencer he didn't want his picture taken).  After getting all our shirts signed we went & got supper.  We ate & sat to wait to see if they would play ball.  About 7:00 it was still coming a flood & Spencer was ready to leave.  After we left they ended up calling the game.  Here are a few pictures from the game.
