We got there early and got in line and were next to a younger couple that ended up being cousins of a baseball player G played with for a couple years at GLHS. We got in and got free t-shirts, got to our seats, walked around a bit and got some food. Game started and it was at least entertaining, a step above HS, maybe equal to college, definitely not NFL grade, but definitely entertaining and fun. There was a concert at halftime that was good and the second half was a bit of a shitshow. The Aviators were losing badly and we tried to stick it out, but left a bit early and fought through traffic and headed home.
