Houston Astros relief LaTroy Hawkins and his wife Anita told to go to Washington for the inauguration. Hawkins woman thought she could be a chance to get tickets, but was not quite sure, and I think it would be smart, if possible. Hawkins confidence in a recent telephone interview that he did not believe that his wife would be able to obtain the cards. But they have developed and got our tickets. "
So they flee Prosper, Texas, Washington DC, where the couple, with millions of others, a historic event with a presidential race that has captivated the country reached its peak during the last two years to attend.
The Hawkins are proud and we believe that the election of the first African-American president in the history of the United States is significant. Hawkins believes electing Obama has a meaning that the ability of Jackie Robinson broke the color wall in baseball over 60 years.
"Jackie Robinson did my grandfather and my uncles and my father that everything is possible," said Hawkins. "Obama leaving my children, who saw their father to be successful, you can do something. This is important in my house, because it shows you a success in most sports."
"It took me just to sit and listen to Mr. Obama. He is so down to earth and normal," said Hawkins.
Anita M Hawkins' attend all four festival opening day, including those in Illinois and the inauguration on Tuesday. Anita began in the days immediately after the election, called a friend Francina Norman, who had tickets for the ball in Illinois. Fortunately, Norman had 10 tickets on time and was happy to provide 2 Anita.
Yet some of Anita, Natalie Middleton, a real estate agent in Maryland, has been able to match tickets to the swearing-in ceremony and even get a hotel room in town sold out. Anita, an event with her children, met Obama and found that it was a bonding experience for the family.
LaTroy and Anita have a son and a daughter, aged 7 and 16, both of which will not couple to Washington DC for the events, but surely they watch on television.
After the inaugural festivities are over, Hawkins will certainly present and accounted for in Kissimmee, Florida for Spring Training and games will officially begin the Houston Astros on February 25. Later in March the Astros take Detroit to Joker Marchant Stadium, the Braves at Disney Stadium, the Cardinals and Pirates at Osceola Stadium McKechnie Field. As is the case for the past 22 seasons, the Astros held Spring Training at Astros, who last year was transformed into a sum of 18.4 million U.S. dollars of renovations to the 'team and the fans with new seating, expanded training opportunities, new offers Press Box, a new facade and large club rooms, creating a new look fantastic.
