It's what baseball USED to be. Not sure how it is in other towns, but here in NY, we've resigned ourselves to watching major league ball on the TV. Between the gas, tolls, parking, food and drinks, not to mention the price of tickets for four, it's really far too expensive.

Last year, we got a local team. They're part of the CanAm League. The stadium is beautiful, brand new and state-of-the-art. The players are wonderfully friendly to the kids who attend, and they do lots of events for local charities. The parking is only $5 and the tickets are extremely reasonable. The food, however, not so good. That's OK, we'll just bring sandwiches next game.
