This post will be a little different than my other posts, but I wanted to share the trip I’ve been this week. Tonight wraps up an awesome 4 day trip to South Dakota. There was a mix of American History, outdoors, wildlife, and gambling. This was the perfect trip during the pandemic, and a veryContinue reading “South Dakota: 2021”

On This Day: 2016
In 2016 I had the opportunity to work at the stadium in Frisco, TX. Dr Pepper Ballpark was definitely one of the best stadiums in all of Minor League Baseball, and one of the perks of this stadium was the proximity to Arlington. This created an opportunity for rehab assignments when a player for theContinue reading “On This Day: 2016”
First Game Of 2021
Today marks a special day. It’s the first time I’ve been to a sporting event since February of 2020! I went to the same place as where I went to my last sporting event, The University Of Iowa.

On This Day: 2017
On 4/20/2017 my brother was in Dallas training for a new work position. I got to the game late after I was off work, but he was there for the whole game. Being late to the game ended up not being a factor because by the time I was there, it was in the middleContinue reading “On This Day: 2017”
On This Day: 2016
4/19/2016 was the only day I went to both a Minor League and Major League game in the same day. The Frisco Roughriders played at 11am, and the Rangers at 7pm. Both stadiums are within 30 minutes of each other. While I was at the Frisco game I said “how cool would it be toContinue reading “On This Day: 2016”
