Biloxi Shuckers

We've wanted to attend a Biloxi Shuckers game ever since they started the minor league here, but we never got around to it last year since they didn't play many home games here since the stadium wasn't finished yet. 

Thankfully, we were able to squeeze in a game a few weeks before leaving Biloxi. 

Our first attempt at attending a game, ended up being a rain out. We actually figured it would be rained out, but we still went to the stadium in hopes a game would start. It didn't, but the kids had a fun time eating popcorn and playing in the rain. 




Thankfully, they rescheduled the rain out game for the next afternoon. It would end up being a double header and even though there was rain in the forecast, it didn't rain. It ended up being the perfect game to attend. Due to it being rained out and being rescheduled for the next afternoon, people didn't know about the game. It was great to let the kids sit in any seat they wanted and have a whole row to ourselves, which made the game more enjoyable for everyone.





Minutes after walking into the park, McKaila was approached and asked if she was a fast runner. She was very shy, but shook her head yes, they continued to ask if she would like to race the crawfish in between innings. I didn't think she would have enough guts to do it, but she surprised us and out ran the crawfish and the lady that was running with her. She was so proud of herself and so were we!

SHUCKERS WIN!!!!!



We all had a great time at our first Shuckers game. Sadly, we won't be able to attend another one here in Biloxi, but hoping to we find some where to watch baseball in Charlotte. 

GO SHUCKERS!!
