This is exactly what I was going for when the "Down Since" onesies came out a couple years ago. I hit a ton of games as a kid (down since 1980), but have only one photo that I know of at a game. Times were obviously quite different in the early 80's, and I'm not even sure my parents owned a decent camera. Once the disposables became popular, we were more into those for capturing moments on vacations and whatnot, but I guess never at a game.
Baby Jack here did it big. Taking in his first game from a suite at Nationals Park on April 28th. The Mets won 7-5, and mommy @KareyNobles posted this cute photo of the fam.
We did the same when it was time for our daughter's first trip to Citi Field. Bringing a newborn to a game is no easy task, and when the opportunity arose to watch a game from a suite, we were in. Let's be honest, when you bring a baby to a game, you can't really watch the whole game, and from a suite it's just way easier. Diapers, feeding, naps, stroller walks around the field level..... maybbbeee you see a collective 2 innings. At least you got that photo though!
We're heading back to Port Saint Lucie to kick off the 2025 season! Join The 7 Line Army on Saturday, February 22nd to watch the New York Mets take on the Houston Astros at Clover Park for Spring Training Opening Day.
