Tulsa Drillers Baseball at the new ONEOK Field in downtown Tulsa

Last night was my first trip to downtown Tulsa's ONEOK Field, home of the Tulsa Drillers, the Double-A affiliate of the Colorado Rockies Major League Baseball team. Demetrius and I went with friends, Mike and Laurie, for the Tulsa Driller's "Fireworks Friday" game.

We first visited the Tycoon Lounge where we enjoyed adult beverages in air-conditioned comfort and am amazing view behind home plate. They offer a buffet dinner there for a reasonable price which Mike had, but Demetri, Laurie and I had the Chicago hot dog - yum!

We stepped outside on the patio to sing our national anthem, the Star Spangled Banner with the other 8,000 fans in attendance.

Once the ballgame begun, we went down to the stands and took our place in our seats, also behind home plate.

Although we lost 7 to 3 to the Springfield Cardinals, the enthusiasm among the fans was still spirited. At the 7th Inning Stretch, we sang our state song, "Oklahoma", and "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." The fans in the stands even did "the WAVE."

The ballgames have themes each evening and this was "Fireworks Friday." Our ages don't matter, do they? We all enjoy fireworks!

It was a great Friday night date in downtown Tulsa. The revitalization efforts in downtown Tulsa include the new ONEOK Field, the BOK Center, the restoration of the Mayo hotel, the continuing addition of many wonderful restaurants and more.

We are proud of our historic and beautiful art deco buildings in downtown Tulsa. Do come visit downtown Tulsa, and if there's a Tulsa Driller's home game, please do go cheer them on!
