Today is opening day of baseball so I thought it would be an appropriate time to share our pictures from spring training at ESPN Wide World of Sports. Where else can you eat a Mickey ice cream bar while watching baseball? Growing up in Southern California my grandpa had season tickets to the Dodger games. It was the best day ever when I got to go to a baseball game with him. Little did I know those many years ago that those memories would mean so much. Now when I go to a baseball game all those wonderful memories come flooding back. 
A few years ago we started attending spring training games at Disney's ESPN Wide World of Sports where for 20 years it has been the home for the Atlanta Braves training. Now I have to admit I am not a Braves fan but an avid Cardinals fan (I hope you don't judge me to harshly for that!)  There is something fun, may I say almost more personal about attending a spring training game. You feel closer to the players and action. If you combine Baseball and Disney then I am pretty happy girl.

I love how close you can get to the field. You can even lean over and watch the pitchers warm up in the bull pin. It was fun watching all the little kids trying to get their favorite pitchers to sign their hats and balls.

Normally the first pitch of the game has a special guest helper.

They do offer delicious Mickey shaped pretzels at the concession stands but Chris always loves to grab a Wetzel Pretzel outside right before entering the stadium.

The Atlanta Braves Philharmonic Saxophone Quartet entertains during the game. I really enjoy them.

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you my favorite St. Louis Cardinal Mr. Matt Adams.

Sadly Atlanta Braves won't be doing their spring training at Disney much longer. Their contract has run out and they will be moving further south. Their new stadium won't be ready by next spring and there is a rumor (I stress the rumor part since nothing has been confirmed at this time) they may do 1 or 2 more years at Disney if so I'll be there for sure to cheer on my favorite baseball team. The stadium is beautiful and I enjoy Mickey shaped food with my games.
