As Independence Day neared, the students were excited they could join in the national celebrations. What better way was there to enjoy this momentous American holiday than to watch the Major League Baseball live at Citifield Stadium, Home of the Mets? By celebrating baseball, we celebrate America.
Witnessing the New York Mets face off with the Philadelphia Phillies was certainly an unforgettable experience. To know that the Phillies had not been winning many matches and were eager for a win made the game even more intense. The stadium was alive with thunderous cheers of passionate supporters and the students all joined in to cheer for their favourite team.
The intense rivalry between both teams made the game an adrenaline-pumping one especially when both came head-to-head during the first few innings of the game on their scores. The fans' enthusiasm was simply infectious. Even students who had never watched a game of baseball in their life began to take sides and were completely absorbed in the match. Even though some supported the Phillies, they could not deny that it was a heartening moment to see the New York Mets win the game in their home field.
With adrenaline still coursing through our veins at the end of the game, the students were treated to a magnificent display of fireworks to commemorate the 4th of July, an apt representation of the vibrant American spirit.
