Summer is officially around the corner; tis the season of baseball, beer, and hot dogs.
We kicked off baseball season today at the Corpus Christi Hooks game. The Hooks are a Double A Astro’s farm league team. They have only been around since 2005, but have become a major part of the Corpus Christi sports scene. The games are full of minor league fun --- dizzy bat games, Kiss Cam, dance offs, and racing mascots; plus a few Texas extras, like a swimming pool in the outfield that can be reserved for parties.
We had perfect baseball weather – 80s and partly cloudy. We sat on the Grass Berm where tickets were only $5.00 (bring your own blanket). What started off as cheap entertainment got a bit pricier when you add in the foot-long corn dog, Whataburger cheeseburger, two fries, two waters, soda, and Hooks gear. But as they say, the experience was priceless.
Looking forward to a season of Hooks baseball! GO HOOKS!
Whataburger, just like you like it
