Birthdays at the ballpark are the best. A representative from the team comes down, leads the section in a rendition of happy birthday, throws some confetti in the air and maybe even gives you a gift bag.
It's unclear whether this fan received that exact fanfare, but on her 98th birthday, she chose to take in a Pirates game on Thursday night.
Regardless of the presence of singing and colorful little pieces of paper, this fan's birthday at PNC Park was a great one, regardless of the 5-2 loss -- it was her first trip to a Major League Baseball game! It's hard to imagine a better way to spend a birthday.
