Baseball game for a date?

[jgraham11]

Anybody ever take a girl on a date to a baseball game? I feel like it's risky early on in the dating phase (which I'm in). If conversation goes dry then it's tough cause baseball games last like 3-4 hours. What are your experiences with them?

I don't think its ideal for a first date. But if the vibe is good on the first date you could ask your date if they like baseball, and invite them to a game for the second date.

Yeah even then I was still feeling it'd be too early. I'll see how the vibe is

Only if you know in advance that she LOVES baseball. And it lasts WAY too long, so not really a great idea. I wouldn't go because I hate anything that long and think it's boring in the extreme. So she'd have to be a die-hard fan to want to do that.

Yeah I mean she's a soccer fan and so am I but we live in America and well American soccer kind of sucks haha. I just see so many couples going to baseball games nowadays

It sounds great to me!

I may be unique, but I am a sports junky and I love baseball. Some of my best dates have been at the game. See if that is her thing. If it is, she will love it.

I'm a sports nut myself, i prefer pro football though, NFL.

It depends. Does she like baseball? If so it's a great date. If not, that's an awfully long time to spend together early on.

 

 

I have been on dates to baseball games, football games, basketball games & hockey games. If you both share the same passion for a team it can be a great date.

Just because it's 3-4 hours doesn't mean you have to stay that long, especially if the weather is super hot or cold. I like baseball games because you can sit around and drink beer and eat nachos. Come the 5th inning, though, I'm ready to go. (If you do take her, teach her how to fill out a score card. I remember a guy taught me how to do that during one game and it was pretty cool.)

As long as the girl is into sports, it's a great date. At least it's turned out like that in my experience, though I knew the women I invited to them were big sports fans to begin with.

 

And it gives you a whole game's worth of baseball to talk about, especially for a huge sports fan like me. So it actually eased the pressure of having to create conversation.

If you know she loves baseball then a good first date. It works for a 2nd or 3rd date too if you find out she's a baseball fan.

 

It's not a good date if you already had long conversational dates...in that situation you need sn activity date wh r e you fo something or you are in an environment that give conversation starters.

If they have previously had long conversations, they don't need conversation starters. They have already proven then can talk about a variety of subjects. Plus at a sporting event each new play is its own conversation starter.

 

 

I don't mind an activity date for the 1st date when you don't really know each other or a much later date when adding something to do avoids boredom but date 3 through the 1st intimacy I want more conversational opportunities & less ways somebody can avoid hiding / getting to know each other.
