Dodger Stadium with Dad





Before he left for home, Dad's oldest brother Uncle Don gave us his Dodger tickets for Friday Night Fireworks. Traffic wasn't bad, we had a full supply of food and assorted other snacks, and the Dodgers won the second of their four-game series against the Cubs.

It was fascinating to watch the stream of fans pour onto the field, as the Dodgers allow all fans to watch the fireworks from the outfield grass. The best display, however, was from one of the first fans to get onto the field, as he plopped down on the grass and proceeded to make a "snow angel" motion with his arms and legs. And given that the quality of the grass at Dodger Stadium rivals that of most golf course greens (and is often smoother and softer than most home carpets) it was a fitting gesture.
