点评:Our family was looking forward to the MLB Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway since it would be the first official Major League Baseball game in Tennessee. I had initially bought tickets when they went on sale in October 2024. MLB and BMS did a great job in communications before the event and sent multiple emails about logistics and information for the day.
We arrived around 3:30 pm on the day of the event to visit the fan fest area. It was fun but very crowded so we went inside. Merchandise lines were extremely long which could be expected but they ran out of many items which was disappointing. Food lines were very long also because there was light rain and it was dinner time for 90,000 people. We got inside for the start of the concert and it was still raining but lightly. It seemed to all work out as the rain stopped and the pregame ceremonies, national anthem and flyover were held. Unfortunately during the ceremonial first pitch it began raining very hard and the game never even started. After a nearly 3 hour rain delay the game was able to be started. However they couldn’t even finish the bottom of the first before heavy rain suspended the game.
We were able to come back the next day and the atmosphere was very relaxed. There were significantly less people but still a large crowd. You were able to bring in outside food as well. We stayed until the end and enjoying seeing the Braves win.
I really hate that it rained the first day. If not for that I think it would have been a much better experience. Lines would not have been so long if there had been something else to do instead of sheltering in the concourse. I was very impressed with the traffic flow both days. We were able to get in and out relatively easy. It was certainly an experience and I am glad we were there.
翻译:我们一家人一直期待着在布里斯托尔赛车场举行的MLB Speedway Classic,因为这将是田纳西州首场正式的美国职业棒球大联盟比赛。我最初是在2024年10月门票开售时购买的。MLB和BMS在活动前做了很好的沟通,并发送了多封邮件,告知了当天的物流和信息。
活动当天,我们下午3:30左右到达,参观了球迷狂欢区。现场很有趣,但人很多,所以我们进去了。周边商品的排队非常长,这在意料之中,但很多商品都售罄了,这令人失望。食物的队伍也很长,因为当时正值9万人的晚餐时间,还下着小雨。我们进去的时候音乐会已经开始了,雨还在下,但只是小雨。一切似乎都很顺利,雨停了,赛前仪式、国歌演奏和飞越仪式都举行了。不幸的是,在仪式的第一球投出时,雨下得很大,比赛甚至都没能开始。比赛因雨延期近三个小时后终于得以开始。然而,他们甚至还没来得及完成第一节的下半场,大雨就导致比赛暂停。
第二天我们又回来了,现场气氛非常轻松。人少了很多,但仍然人头攒动。还可以带外带食物。我们一直待到比赛结束,享受着勇士队的胜利。
我真的很讨厌第一天下雨。如果不是下雨,我想体验会好得多。如果除了躲在大厅里,还有其他事情可做,排队的人就不会那么长了。两天的交通状况都给我留下了深刻的印象。我们进出都相对方便。这绝对是一次难忘的经历,我很高兴我们去了那里。
