#15 — JULY 25: ASHEVILLE TOURISTS

Another return trip with a better experience in 2018: McCormick Field. Our 2017 visit left us unimpressed with the people and atmosphere in Asheville. Our 2018 adventure was much more fun. We came the day after a rainout. Therefore, the team hosted a double header that started very early in the day. This time, we also purchased tickets just a few rows behind home plate. All of this allowed us to really settle in and get intimate with McCormick Field. With two games, we enjoyed the food and beverage and had the tallest helmet cup of soft serve ice cream we have seen at a ballpark. 2018 was also the 30th year anniversary of BULL DURHAM. At the end of the movie, Crash Davis is cut by the Bulls and signs with the Asheville Tourists. At McCormick Field, Crash hits the home run that breaks the minor league home run record. The cover of Asheville’s game programs for the season commemorates that famous, fictitious, cinematic piece of history.
