Something about going to the baseball game makes me think about chewing gum, hot dogs and baseball hats (duh). Durham doesn’t have a professional baseball team, but they do have a Triple A team with a great stadium and a fun crowd- we headed there Monday night to watch the Durham Bulls game with some of my husband’s colleagues. It was so muggy, but I still wanted to dress the part of a baseball fan, so I threw on my hat and baseball tee and we headed to Walmart to purchase bottled water and bubble gum. Apparently, Juicy Fruit chewing gum is stepping up its game because right in front of Walmart where we stopped was a big fruit chews display as well as bubble gum (the kind perfect for blowing bubbles). Yum! Aaron and I later had a bubble blowing contest in the stadium and he told me I’m not very good (see below)- however, considering he didn’t let me snap a picture of him blowing bubbles, I think I am the clear winner!

Luckily, upon arrival, we were in covered seating and there was a nice breeze, so although it was thick out (as it has been the last two weeks), it wasn’t terribly bad and the Bulls won which is always fun! 


Are you a good bubble gum bubble blower? I always wondered if there really was an art form to it!


Make sure to attend one of the Juicy Fruit demos at Walmart stores across the country on July 25 and August 1-3!

    Love this post! And the talk about the Durham Bulls really takes me back to my days in Durham. It's a great city, and I love the Old Tobacco area! I'll have to grab some of those new Juicy Fruit flavors, too. #client
