National's Ballpark

My mama's eyes anally scan the menu last night at Nationals' ballpark. She really struggles to eat at a place like this. Which then again also seems to be the point of a place like this.

Nationals' ballpark is a great place for families, even babies. Children under 2 are not required to have a ticket to enter. To the right of the gate they have a well-choreographed Concierge Service who will check your stroller, backpack, breast pump, whatever you don't want to bring to the seats. Check out their site for more info.

Also if it is your first game, go to the office to the right of the stroller check where you will be presented with your very own First Baseball Game Certificate (Moms and Dads, I challenge you to find a baby book or some other way to save this gigantic piece of paper). Needless it is a special keepsake, and if you are older than me, an award you are at least cognizant of "winning"(?).

As for food, turns out with a little preparation everyone can food, drink and baseball. While the Little Rookies food stand to the left of the entrance offers slightly smaller portion sizes, the hot dogs, pizza, soda and popcorn were still out of my league, so Mom had packed me a bagel, blueberries and a Plum Organics. Food was used as both nutrition and an activity which kept me entertained for a good two innings. Dad in the meantime went with a Ben's Chili Bowl half smoke chili dog and beers for Mom and him.

Next time they at least owe me a hot dog.
