We had a great time this August going to an Astros game as a family. Friday nights are really fun because the fireworks display around 9:30pm. We didn’t get home til 11:00pm though so it is an all evening event. We plan on taking our kids again because they loved it, but we will go later in the game so we aren’t sitting so long! Minute Maid park is great you can drop off anyone before the game on any of the corners of the building, once you hand them your ticket you can check out the Astros store, also they have a guest services for checking coats, baby strollers and diaper bags in during the game. The train is the best part there is actually a guy up there engineering the train and for every home run it takes off and backs up, the kids loved it and so did I.
