Field trip to baseball game- UPDATE

When FA folks need to have an "alternative," I love when it turns out to be better than the original!  So glad you had such a special day.

Glad it turned out so well!!

I've gone to several baseball games and haven't had any trouble - until Tuesday night.  The wind was blowing in (light to moderate) from a diagonal, so when a couple of the people 1-3 rows in front of me and to my left started eating peanuts I ended up with mild hives/swelling/itchiness on my lips.  I moved down a few rows (luckily the friends I was with had two separate groups of seats) where I was more open-air and the lip thing went away.  Then the girl in front of me started eating them and I got hives on my lower legs. 

So all that to say, I think you and DS made the right decision.  It would be different to go with parents who could keep a close eye on things and move/leave if necessary.

We are taking our kids to a Twins game at the end of next month in the peanut free section.  These tickets sold in a day!!  I think
there were 8 or 10 games to choose from.  I would not take him to a game unless it was in this situation, it's just not worth it to me.
Some kids never get to a professional game of any kind, allergies or not, so if you get a chance to go to one of those games, I would.
Good luck!!

So you would not let your DS go for a field trip? It's killing me knowing he is going to be so left out.

It was not for a field trip.  He never had a field trip to a Twins game.
