Nothing says "Summer" to me like a baseball game. Add in Coney Island, a Nathan's foot long hot dog, Brooklyn Lager in a black can, the boardwalk, surf and sand, and you have one heck of a good time. A Cyclones game is the minor leagues at its' best; where you sit is irrelevant, because you can pretty much sit wherever you want, despite what your ticket says.
There's cheerleaders (!), enthusiastic high school girls who dance on top of the dugouts, the standard t-shirt guns, weird balloon mascots, free jersey night, Thursday nights everyone gets to run the bases, there's fireworks on Fridays, and a real crowd pleaser called King Henry.
Once you've had you fill (of food or the game), all you do is exit through a gate and walk out onto the boardwalk. I always end a game by wading into the water, just a little bit. Please feel free to steal my tradition :)
