Astros fans…

The Astros organization and fans are cool as f**k, man.

I live in North Florida and my oldest became a MASSIVE Cam Smith fan while he was at FSU. We were thrilled when he was drafted by the Cubs. I grew up a Reds fan but also a low-key Cubs admirer as a kid thanks to WGN, so my son and I were completely bummed when Cam was included in the deal for Tucker.

But that all changed when we saw how quickly his teammates have taken him in. He’s had his ups and downs this season, but the love he’s received from the organization and the fans is incredible. Also, every interaction I’ve had with the fans has been great and y’all know ball, too.

My kid now wears an Astros hat so much we’ve already been through two in about 6 months. We saw two spring training games in West Palm (Cam went oppo in one), we’re going to see them play the Braves in Atlanta in September, and we’re starting to plan a return trip to West Palm and our first trip to Houston next season.

Y’all are awesome and probably the most under-appreciated fans in baseball.
