great fireworks, and the Tourists WON! And everyone stayed even through the rain.
We really enjoyed going to McCormick field to watch the Asheville Tourists play. Hot Dogs, Baseball, Fireworks and Family...what a way to spend the 4th!
I do not believe the person who seated us really had knowledge of the seating. My Box Seat tickets were for section K2 row B seats 8-9-10-11. I thought I was purchasing tickets for the lower level, somewhere behind home plate. Instead we were directed to the very top row right under the Press Box. It appears that this section has been converted to Box Seats, but this was not what I purchased. We should have questioned this, but we decided to just stay put. The seats were OK but very hot under the roof. Other that that, it was a wonderful evening, even if the Tourists didn't win and the great fireworks made up for the bad seats. I'm a fan and will be back for another game.
I support Veterans and benedictions but they seemed to go on interminably. Best part was July 4 fireworks - spectacular. Field staff was excellent. The game itself? Well, remember its class A - somewhat a mixture of little league and the majors.
The game was terrible, Tourists lost 14-4, but the field is beautiful and the fireworks were amazing!
