Atlanta
July 2003

    On this night, the Braves were playing the Montreal Expos and I enjoyed listening to the Canadian as well as the American National Anthem.  Good neighbors, the USA and Canada - we share the longest undefended international border in the world.  Other countries could take a lesson.

I always enjoy going to a major league baseball game. Turner Field is marvelous - a great place to watch the game and a first class facility and organization.

Of course, it's always more fun when the home team wins and while I've only been to a couple of games in recent years, the Braves are 2 and 0 when I'm in attendance.

Beyond the science and strategy of the game, it seems the audience has to be entertained.  There is always some type of music or audience participation activity between innings.  Here, the crowd is encouraged to join in with the Village People's rendition of (boom boom boom boom)...
