Abstract
The baseball stadium is where fans and spectators gather for shared experiences. Through an analysis of a personal sport-fan narrative of a son’s account of attending live games with his father, this chapter examines notions of the embodied game-day experience, which is influenced by fans’ connection to and sense of heritage and nostalgia. Tangible and intangible heritage elements were found to be important markers of nostalgia that shared between a father and son. The narrative and the chapter help advance understandings of heritage and nostalgia within a sport-fan and baseball stadium context. The chapter concludes with recommendations on how stadium management practices can positively influence and enable embodied fan experiences through acknowledgment of heritage and nostalgia.
