Last weekend, I joined the Indy Social Media Moms, my bestie Kristin, and our husbands for a night at the ballpark. As I sipped on a cold Sun King Indians Lager and watched the sun set over Victory Field, I thought, “Can this get any better?”
Seriously. Look at that picture and tell me it doesn’t make you want some Cracker Jack. And I’m not even a baseball fan.
I have long loved the Indianapolis Indians for the experience alone. Victory Field is a gorgeous venue that overlooks the downtown skyline, Indy Dogs are cheap and delicious, the beer variety is excellent, and you can get an unlimited amount of popcorn for only $5.50. These games are perfect for family outings, corporate events, and in our case – a momma’s night out.
Our daughters are still a bit too young to fully enjoy an Indianapolis Indians baseball game, so we left the girls with the grandmas and enjoyed ourselves a little double date night.
In the future, I’m pretty sure Indians games will become a staple for our family. Not only do kids 14 and under eat FREE (that’s right, FREE) on Sundays, but there’s also $1 Mondays where many menu items are just $1 – including my personal favorite, the Indy Dog.
Also, on July 4, 5, & 6, there will be a special Independence Day fireworks show. Can you imagine the view of fireworks over the city? Stop it.
Oh, and can we mention the Knot Hole Kids Club? This amazing membership is only $16 and gives kids 14 and under a full season pass. With lawn seats being only $8 for an adult (and you can bring in your own cooler!), I foresee many Sundays teaching Dot how to catch fly balls.
This Indians game capped off a pretty hectic spectacular day for me. While the other ISMM members took VIP tours of Victory Field, I was finishing off my spa day with a little pedicure (I live a tough life, I tell ya). Since I couldn’t make it, be sure to check out their behind-the-scenes tours on Walking By Faith Blog, Patty’s Pretty Things, Creating Better Tomorrow, Mums Chasing Lillies and Indy Home School.

We went to several Clippers games when we lived in Ohio and loved it. We’d love to keep our tradition alive with the Indians as well! Thanks for all the info, definitely will be heading to a game soon!
