The Tragic Softball Game

The ball goes over the fence! My mom was not excited to come to my dad’s last softball game, but when we got there, her complaining heightened. She started grasping her stomach describing what she was feeling, but my 10 year old mind just thought, “She just wants to go home.” I pushed her complaining away and watched my dad’s team win the game.

Dairy Dream was just across the street with the delicious smell of hot chocolate fudge and the nose tingling scent of vanilla ice cream that filled the air.

    A few weeks ago, I was finally able to make my first Georgia Southern baseball game. I am not proud that it took over a year for me to ultimately make a game. I have never been the biggest baseball fan, but I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to see Georgia Southern play the University of Georgia.

I also was interested to analyze how they promote their sponsors, because I will be doing the same thing when I start my internship this fall, at East Coweta High School.
