Crazy Woman Screams Over Rockies!

Contributed by: Cynthia Ballinger on 4/1/2008

If you go to a Rockies game with Cynthia Ballinger of Aurora, be prepared to cover your ears! She can scream loudly when she wants to see the Rockies win a game she attends.

She started out as a mild mannered wife and mother, only to have her family and friends find out she is a maniac when it comes to seeing the Rockies play Baseball. Growing up in Great Falls, Montana, she never thought she would be privileged to see a real baseball game in person. But, after moving back to Colorado in 1999 and going to her first basball game, it turns out she's a baseball fanatic.

She met her husband in 1979 and found out later he had been a baseball player growing up. Matt (her husband) played from Little League all the way up to Connie Mack. And when she took him to her company picnic in Arizona she couldn't believe that all the men she worked with came up later and asked if Matt could play again that day. She was the proudest wife that day when he hit the ball out of the park and out to where the cars were parked.

That started her on a real love of baseball and even her father-in-law, Donald Ballinger was surprised when she screamed in his ear at the first Rockies game the family took him to. He couldn't believe the screaming and looked at her as if she had gone mad.

That's why she would love to win a suite at Coors Field to take her family and friends to see and enjoy the game as much as she does.
