Take Me Out To The Ballgame

Yesterday, we had the unique opportunity to attend a baseball game here in Prague. Laura, Jessica and Phoebe, friends from Ostrava, faithfully followed their team, the Ostrava Arrows to Prague for the last game of their series. A few of us joined them to cheer the Arrows on. It was quite and experience. There are some die-hard Czech fans, who cheered (loudly with horns and a train whistle) for the entire game. It was great! We tried to start them out on the 7th inning stretch, with a stirring rendition of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" but, I think they will have to practice it in the off-season. The Arrows pulled it out, after a very scary 8th inning. Nothing like a little taste of America's pastime in Prague!
