A sign of the changing times...

My kids (now adults) took our annual April trip to Fenway Park this week... we saw the 18-3 loss :(

As usual, I was struck by the way that going to a baseball game has changed since I was a kid:

1) We were sharing our trip with friends in New England and across the continent via FaceBook updates before and during the game.

2) We were asking people who were watching the game on TV about plays, and they were asking us about events at the game.

3) We were paying close attention to the other games underway, especially for those players on our fantasy teams.

4) We were having great conversations about the game around our table (we had seats in the right field deck!) and we were all talking about what others were saying about the game.

Yup times are changing, and getting better, because of technology!
