The Everette Aquasox are a single-A minor league affiliate of the Seattle Mariners. Located just a 20 minute drive from our hotel, so why not!?
Tonight the opposing (and winning!) team was the Eugene Emeralds, a single-A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs.
As one would expect, the accommodations and concessions are minimal but the entertainment was well above average.
It was an exciting ball-game with a lot of action. The between-inning shtick
put major-leagues to shame: games, contests -with lots of prizes, races, songs, dances, and the ever-present mascot, Webbly. The fans were enthusiastic supporters of their team, participating with gusto. And
it was a double give-away day! (a t-shirt and Pepsi.)
After the game the entertainment continued with a watermelon eating contest, a game of launchball, and a really great fireworks display!
What a fun way to spend the 4th of July!!
