"In the blink of an eye, my little Abel is so big."

Houston, in a villa in the River Oaks community.

Arya Smith looked at the heroic young man in front of her with emotion and couldn't help but say.

Alex said: "As time goes by, you and I are getting older~"

Seeing the two old men sighing with emotion, Abel quickly changed the topic:

"By the way. When I was on the road, grandpa, you said there was a program in the evening. What program was there?"

"Hey hey hey~"

Alex laughed when he heard him say this.

In his wife's helpless eyes, the old guy fumbled in several pockets on his body.

Then - "Dang Dang Dang~~" Alex shouted loudly and took out three things that looked like movie tickets.

Abel took a closer look and found that there should be three football tickets.

He took it, looked at it, and found that it was a ticket for an MLB game.

MLB is the abbreviation of Major League Baseball and is one of the four major professional leagues in the United States.

The NBA, which is well-known in China, is also one of the four major players.

Among the four major players, if we have to talk about rankings, we can look at the data such as ratings, number of fans and attendance.

In terms of ratings, the most popular one is obviously the NFL, that is, football.

The NFL's annual Super Bowl can be called America's Spring Festival Gala, a big party.

The Yankees, the famous NFL team, are more famous in the United States than the Bulls, Lakers, Celtics, etc. combined.

Below the NFL, it’s the MLB league’s turn, which is baseball.

At the bottom are ice hockey and basketball, which have been competing for third place.

Sometimes it's third in the NBA, sometimes it's third in the NHL, which is hockey.

But this is only when counting the United States, if Canada is included.

The NBA is completely at the bottom because ice hockey is very popular in Canada.

And if we look at the number of fans in the United States, baseball ranks first!

This is related to its extremely high popularity rate. Basically, every American has a favorite baseball team, but not necessarily a favorite football team.

As for the attendance rate, it’s hard to say. The basketball court is the smallest, so maybe the basketball attendance rate is the highest.

Like most American families, the Smith family has its own favorite baseball team.

This baseball team is the Texas Rangers.

The reason why I like the Rangers is not only because the family owns a small share of the team.

Also because the Rangers' home stadium is in Arlington, which is only about twelve miles from Fort Worth.

And the city of Arlington is under the jurisdiction of Tarrant County.

This is a hometown team, and if Tarrantians don't support it, why should they support the Houston Astros?

"Astros vs. Rangers~Oh, the last cross-league game is Texas' own derby."

After looking at the ticket, Abel smiled and said: "It's still a VIP seat. Dear Alex, it cost you money. Okay, I'll go find two girlfriends to watch the game together. Don't waste money."

These three tickets."

The old man puffed his beard and glared, trying to grab the tickets, "Give it back to me, I can only give you one. The rest belong to me and Arya. If you have a girlfriend, go buy it yourself!!"

Abel stepped aside to prevent the ticket from being snatched away by his grandfather, and said with a smile: "Be careful, don't tear the ticket!"

Alex didn't really want to grab his tickets, he was just pretending. The grandfather and grandson were used to this way of getting along.

"Okay." As usual, Arya smiled and came out to be the peacemaker:

"Stop grabbing it. Abel, if you can really find two girlfriends, then I can give you the game tickets. So, where are your girlfriends?"

"My girlfriends are working and they are very busy. So in the evening, I can only go watch it with my grandpa and grandma."

Seeing Abel saying these words indifferently, Arya felt something in her heart.

She had some ideas.

But seeing that Alex was about to confront Abel again, she suppressed this idea in her heart for the time being.

Smiling, he reconciled the two of them.

After dinner, Abel drove.

Alex and his wife sat in the back car, while other bodyguards drove in other cars in front and behind.

The motorcade set off for the venue of tonight's MLB Texas Derby.

It is also the home stadium of the Houston Astros, and is still known as the Houston Astros Stadium.

In parallel time and space, this stadium will be two years from now.

The Coca-Cola Company paid an annual fee of approximately US$6 million to name Minute Maid Stadium.

It's not a long drive from the old couple's villa.

In about half an hour, we arrived near the stadium.

This half hour was mainly wasted on getting to the stadium, as the road became particularly congested.

Tonight is the Astros vs. Rangers, a big showdown between the only two MLB teams in Texas.

It's still Texas, the last game of this year's MLB preseason.

Not only local fans in Houston, but also a large number of capable and wealthy Texas fans.

Especially the fans from Tarrant County, almost all of them who had the ability and money came to attend.

The stadium obviously cannot accommodate so many people, and all the tickets have been sold out long ago.

But these loyal fans can't even enter the stadium to watch the game.

They are also happy to watch the real-time broadcast and listen to the cheers inside the stadium from a distance of hundreds of meters in the square outside the stadium.

As a result, too many people will come.

So much so that the area around the stadium was so crowded and jammed.

"It's so lively." Abel, who was driving, couldn't help but sigh.

After being born again, Abel seldom drove.

At the beginning, I just made money in New York and bought several sports cars.

Ferrari, Porsche, Pagani, Lamborghini and America's own supercar Corvette.

It was okay at the beginning, after all, you can't be said to be poor before you are reborn, but you won't be able to get something like a sports car in your life.

After rebirth, if you have money, you can open these things that you couldn't touch before.

He was naturally quite excited at the beginning and enjoyed it very much.

But New York's traffic jams are famous, and Manhattan's traffic jams are famous all over the world.

Driving a sports car and being stuck on the streets of Manhattan.

This kind of taste is sour and refreshing.

After the novelty wore off, he soon got tired of supercars.

Later, except for a few times when picking up girls, he rarely drove by himself.

This time it was mainly because of his grandparents that he volunteered to be a driver.

It's fine when you're in the city center, but it's extremely congested when you drive near the stadium.

Fortunately, he is not "fighting" alone, he also drives the Cadillac Escalade.

There were four other cars around, driven by his bodyguards.

Four cars surrounded him in front and behind, and they also opened the way for him.

Abel only needs to follow behind the Toyota Sequoia in front, and he doesn't have to worry about being rear-ended or rear-ended.

In other words, you are not afraid of being rear-ended, since it is your own car anyway.

Traffic jams for rich people are so simple and unpretentious.

"There's going to be a big game tonight." Alex is obviously a baseball fan, and he still likes it even though he is seventy years old.

"Everyone is here, so of course it's very lively. Alexander said he wanted to come, but I didn't prepare a ticket for him!!"

Arya wanted to expose her husband's boast, because her son Alexander did not express it that way.

Also, Alexander is not a baseball fan.

But without Arya appearing, Abel was able to expose his grandfather's boast.
