Some good pictures of the ball coming off of the bat. The mascot is Goldie, but doesn't look like a fish. Tonight Hootie was there with a couple of his girls. Goldie and Hootie ran around the bases. It was 50's night, so the staff was dressed in 50's attire. There is a train track that runs along the 3rd baseline, you can see the bridge over the Red River in the background. There are 32 suites. The fans have hand motions for the song "Take Me Out To The Ballgame”. Outstanding selection of food with a special Asian restaurant on the second floor at the end of the 1st baseline called Hu's on First. We were profiled at US customs coming back across the boarder and sent to Garage 3. We had a plant and several boxes of belongings of Andrea's mother. I guess they didn't find anything, as they sent us on our way after about 5 minutes in the waiting room.
