Took my boys and they loved it. My oldest even caught a foul ball.

All true. And the only game in town until the billionaires quit feuding with the millionaires in MLB.

On one level, there's no comparison to the MLB experience. But the cost to take a couple of kids to GABP for a game, food, and beverage will reach $100 fast. College baseball is cheap entertainment and, statistically speaking, the kids are more likely to get a souvenir foul pop. Thankfully, more people are discovering Bearcat baseball and it only gets more exciting in the Big 12.

For me its a more pure game. The games speed is much better, kids actually hustle and run out ground balls. There is an excitement that isn't there at mlb games. Nothing better than stealing a day down there on a sunny March day.

I’m the same way. College baseball is a better game for many fans of the game. More intimate and relatable and the fundamentals and energy is so much better overall.
