I met my husband when we were 13. He’s from Louisiana, so he grew up watching the Braves on TBS and would watch 162 games a year - going as far as recording the ones he couldn’t watch live, to watch later. He’s the reason why I got into baseball. When someone you love really loves something, you just start to love it too. He absolutely, without a doubt, knows more about the sport than I do, but he has never made me feel that way. So, it’s weird how many men keep commenting on my IG posts and sending me DMs, saying I’m not a “real” fan, saying I’m going to the World Series just for recognition, asking “Can you even name 5 players on the team?” Calling me a scammer, saying I’m a fraud because I can’t like 2 teams, and “I can finally unfollow your dumb page,” etc, just angry that they didn’t win the giveaway. I’m making this post to reiterate that the giveaway was completely free. You lost nothing to enter. You can unfollow me at literally anytime lol. I truly just wanted a die hard fan to have this experience, because the Braves WS was one of the best experiences of my life. I did not know it would blow up the way it did. I do have to add that the vast majority of comments and messages have been SO kind and supportive of the winner. It’s so wonderful to see a bunch of people in this community come together to congratulate someone and to root for the home team. There’s a lot more good than there is bad and I’m so grateful for that. It’s been so nice meeting so many new people and getting to chat baseball with them 😊 Game 1 down, GO BREWERS!! 💙💛⚾️
