#9 — JUNE 15 & 16: CHARLESTON RIVERDOGS

We put the top down on the Jeep and continued down the South Carolina Coast to visit this Yankees affiliate. This franchise and the Riverdogs venue was very reminiscent of the parent club in that it seemed straight laced and professional. Many fans at the stadium were retirees from New York who chose to move to Charleston and root for an affiliate of their beloved Yankees. It almost felt out of place in this iconic SOUTHERN city. We also felt very unsafe as the River Dogs officials chose to play through a very close lighting storm. We left in the third inning and essentially got robbed of a game at the most expensive ticket price (by far) in the South Atlantic League.
