....take me out with the crowd! I have to be honest my favorite memories of baseball games are pigging out on snacks. We hardly every paid attention as kids to the game unless everyone started looking up, signifying a fly ball. Well... not a lot has changed, except this time in addition to the pigging out and the reacting (mostly late) to fly balls, I got to throw the first pitch! I had soooo much fun throwing the first pitch at the Fresno State Baseball game on May 13! The pressure of making sure that ball crossed home plate reminded me of my college basketball playing days. It was also fun to be back "playing sports" at my alma matter.
Some of the day's highlights for me included,
~ warming up with one of the players
~ taking a picture with Head Coach Mike Batesole
~ teaching the Media Intern how to do a "pageant pose"
~ being featured on the Fresno State Athletics Facebook and Instagram page
~ throwing the ball across home plate (STRIKE!)
~ eating trail mix, candy, nachos, almonds, and candy bars :)
~ sharing the Mrs. California Crown with the community
~ taking my son to his very first baseball game, and having fun with my family "at the ol' ball game!!!!"
