Hi I have been to ballgames in Holguin Once with the cooks from the resort , cost 1 U S dollar. once by cab . The taxi driver made all the arrangements , cost 1 U S we had the first row seats behind home plate . Wonderful stadium bring your own rum in a plastic bottle no glass allowed . Fans are fantastic . Our driver got the team to sign a ball for us for 5 U S , they won the Cuban championship that year 2002. Felt very safe at the game . They have a special entrance for tourists. We kind of missed not sitting with the cubans as we had done the first time but both trips were great

Yes there seemed to be quite a few kids We took a couple of large bags of bubble gum and called two children over . We opened the bags and gave them to the kids they went through the crowd giving it out until they had 1 left each . Just terrific to see. I am not sure if all the stadiums have tourist sections but we see more and more tourists at the games
