Consider this scenario...
You're taking a girl out on a date to a MLB baseball game. Which outfit would you rather see her in? Women, if you're reading this, which outfit would you wear?
Number one:
or
Number two:
or
Number three:
This is in response to an article I read tonight. I am curious about which one a man would prefer.

I'd prefer #1.0

Any,have no preference...all are good.0
-
I'd say #2
When it comes to shirts.. less is more!0 -
#2 -- this one is great.0
-
#2 is best. But all outfits are good choices.
A good attitude matters most.0 -
#1, for sure!0
-
Can we choose other outfits? I have a thing for ladies in floral dresses (the shoes - maybe not so much).

I'd prefer the chick who can dress herself and isn't pandering to an assumption of what I'd like.
Edit: That or naked.0 -
#1 for sure, but only if she's actually a Pirate fan. It's a pet peeve of mine of people who wear jerseys (even fake "girl" ones) to games just for fashions sake. I'm sorry but all pink jerseys should be banned from games, unless it's October.
But really, I want her to wear something she's comfortable in. Baseball games are long and can be hot if it's a day game. The last thing I want is a crabby date because she dressed up and is now uncomfortable.0 -

I hate the pink jerseys!
This is in response to this article: http://www.collegefashion.net/college-life/what-to-do-what-to-wear-3-outfit-ideas-for-a-baseball-game/
I don't think a dress is a good outfit for a MLB game, or a NFL game, or a NHL game - I hate when girls wear dresses and heels to sporting events. It looks like you're not even a fan. I would love number three for anything but a sporting event, you know?
But this article says, "Picture this — you’re going to dinner and a ball game for a first date. Shorts will be too casual, so what to wear, what to wear? A t-shirt dress is the perfect piece to wear for a ball game date. The breathable fabric will keep you cool, comfortable and looking cute. To add some interest and highlight your shape, synch your waist with a thin belt. Throw your hair into an effortless top knot, slip on your comfiest flats, put on a chunky necklace, sling on a cross body and you’ll be sure to turn heads at the game."
I think shorts are fine for a date...I think outfit number one or two is fine for a first date to a game. Just wanted to see what you all thought!0 -
Those jerseys are ****e.
Number 2 FTW.0 -
I like #2 best but both are cute! The long sleeves will be f-ing hot at an MLB game though!
ETA: I didn't realize there were three options haha, but I still pick #2. Dress is cute for a lunch date or something.0 -
1, then 2, then 3 in that order of preference.0
-
I don't do "short shorts" so mine would be longer, but if I had the team shirt I'd definitely say #1. If I didn't have any team outfit I would do #2 but definitely not #3 at a sporting event. You wanna be able to jump yell shout and have a good time.0

Mine would be option 2 but only wear that hat if you look good in one, then 1 but maybe more of a t-shirt then a long sleeve t-shirt. The couple dates I have been on to MLB games (it is my prefered 1st date) have been in a mix of 1 and 2 but you should never wear a dress to a ball game. One other option would be a jean skirt though if you wanted to wear a skirt.0

I love the red messenger bag. Think I might have to get one of those
As for sports here, we would wear jeans and either a kit shirt, or a casual top, boots and hat n scarf. Football season is cold!!
Short shorts like those would not be worn even if it were hot though, as being a predominantly male crowd, you'd just get ogled at!
Looks like Olympic season will be cold too!!! It's been raining here for about 8 weeks..........arghhhhhh!! :sad:0 -
Probably #1 mainly because the shoes look more comfortable to walk in. But it's really hot then go with #2. #3 would only work if you're actually going somewhere nice for dinner before, but most likely that wouldn't be the case. I'd probably just be in a t-shirt and jeans or shorts, so I wouldn't want her to feel over-dressed.0

Definitely NOT a sports day outfit!! :flowerforyou:0 -
I'd pick #2, that would be not as tom boy as number one but more base ball casual appropreate0

I do too but I want it in orange. (I am on an orange and puple kick right now for my wardrobe)0 -
LOL .. I would wear #1, but I figured boys would like #2. So .. #2 if you are trying to impress him.
My bigger question would be .. what do YOU want to wear.0 -
The shorts from #1, the top from # 2, who cares about the footwear or bag?0

See .. the whole point of outfit #2 is the colors .. black and yellow for the team.0 -
Depends on what's below the outfit, really.
I'd say #1 has got that "hot chick"/slutty appeal that will make all the other men think "Damn! I wish she was hanging around with me!", if you can pull it off.
Number 3 is a bit "classier" but really seems inappropriate because of that.
Number 2 screams I'm going to the beach.0 -
#2--And I have those sandals, lol.0

It's a pirates game so the other 10 people in attendance are most likely only in binocular range anyway. More importantly, the shorts from # 1 show more leg and the top from # 2 shows more chest. Nuff said!0 -
But this article says, "Picture this — you’re going to dinner and a ball game for a first date. Shorts will be too casual, so what to wear, what to wear? A t-shirt dress is the perfect piece to wear for a ball game date. The breathable fabric will keep you cool, comfortable and looking cute.

I can't see going to a ball game as a first date. The tickets are $60 a piece, beers and stadium food are sky high and the game will last for at least 3 hours. What if you don't hit it off? Which is very likely. That is an expensive and prolonged awkward experience.0 -
This was my first thought too, you can get tickets here for way cheaper than $60 but I get the point. A ball game is definitely more of an "event" which I would save until at least the third date. Just makes it harder to actually have a conversation and get to know each other, like going to a movie.I can't see going to a ball game as a first date.

The combination of dinner and a ball game? So not a first date, in the vast majority of cases.
You can get tickets for less than $60 easily. Most stadiums will have upper level seats around $10. Or perhaps you find your way to some free tickets. Usually, when I am going to a pro sports event, it is because I found my way to some free tickets. But if you find free tickets and you are a single man, you usually want to give your extra free ticket to an established friend, not a first date.
Transportation is another issue. If there's not good public transportation to the stadium (Yankees, Mets, Cubs and Red Sox are examples of teams in cities with good public transportation), you're dealing with parking. And the logistics of parking and getting in and out of a stadium are often not the best for impressing a first date. In many regards, minor league baseball is a better bet for a first date due to lower ticket prices and better logistics due to having more sparse crowds. A big crowded event isn't the best first date in a lot of scenarios (there are exceptions).0
