Won free baseball tickets - taking my 9yo to his first major league game

Dec 21 min read

One of my clients had some extras and gave them to us. Dude. My son is going CRAZY about it. We're going to drive down to Minneapolis and make it a whole thing - staying overnight, getting him a jersey, the whole experience. He's already been googling the stadium and asking questions about the field. This is gonna be such a core memory for him and honestly I'm pretty stoked too. Anyone from the area have recommendations for stuff to do around there?

This is the kind of memory that sticks with kids forever. Not the fancy gift, but the EXPERIENCE and your enthusiasm about HIS excitement. He's gonna remember that drive and that game for actual years.

That's such a cool experience to give him man. First major league game is a memory for life.

The jersey + overnight trip + actual major league game is perfect. You're giving him something he'll talk about for the rest of his life. That's the dad win right there.

Which team? Either way this is the kind of experience that matters way more than any material thing. Your son's gonna remember this as a core memory.

Getting a client to hook you up with tickets that led to this is perfect. Your son doesn't even know how lucky he is and that's the whole thing - to him it's just something his dad set up because he's cool.

Dude your kid is so hyped right now and that's beautiful. The fact that he's researching the stadium beforehand shows he's actually invested. This is gonna be amazing.

The fact that he's already researching the stadium is so good. He's gonna remember this forever. You're building a core memory here.

Get him the jersey, do the whole thing. This is the stuff he's gonna tell people about when he's older. 'Yeah my dad took me to my first game and we made it a whole trip.'
