Joliet Jackhammers Game

Not having had a nap that day, Alex fell asleep on the way to Silver Cross Field in Joliet. He slept for a few minutes after we arrived but woke up shortly after entering the noisy stadium.




Earlier this week, Brad came into some Joliet Jackhammer tickets at work at 5:15pm for a 6:05pm game. The Jackhammers are a professional baseball team based out of Joliet and it is a great family activity. Alex had been asking to go back for weeks after we went earlier this summer with neighbors.

These seats were great, right behind the visitors dugout and we had a great time. It was very crowded this time and Brad was so sweet to stand in line for 45 min to get ice cream in a baseball cap for Alex! Jammer, the team mascot, even came through and danced right in front of us on the top of the dugout and at one point sat right next to Alex and gave him a high five. By 8:30, Alex was asking to go home, so that's just what we did.
