Opening Day at Coors Field in Downtwon Denver

Lower Downtown Denver was full of excitement and anticipation it was Opening Day at the Ballpark. Young and old lined the streets and the roof tops enjoying the sunny spring day. Music was playing from every local radio station as you walked the streets. It was a carnival atmosphere around 20th and Blake at our gorgeous Coors field.

This opening day was different, fans had a little more to be excited about this was the first time the Rockies will be Opening the season as National League Champions.

A giant flag covered the field held by members of the military as the national anthem was sung.  The crowd waited for the fly over which capped the pregame ceremonies.

It was now time to begin a new season at home with hope of improving on the unbelievable ending to last year with a word series victory.

The day did not end the way we all  had hoped with a loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-1. Well there is always tomorrow and the rest of the summer.
