Thank you, thank you, Madison Mallards, for inviting the community to the fireworks on July 5. I hope this becomes a new tradition for Madison's Northside neighborhoods.
The run-down:
- I was glad to see you open the stadium for fireworks viewing after the game. Everyone was welcome, even if they did not attend the game.
- The concessions were still open and serving beer and snacks.
- Attendees could sit in the stands or have a blanket on the outfield grass (which is soft as carpet, by the way).
- There was a live band playing great, American rock songs from the 1980s and 1990s. Thank you for not playing that Lee Greenwood song!!!
- The fireworks were great. They were large, didn't last too long and the right distance from the stadium for viewing.
Spectacular!
