Two out of five U.S. adults (38%) attended an organized sports event, competition or tournament as either a spectator or as a participant while traveling in the past five years according to a Travel Industry Association survey. A majority of these travelers took their most recent sports trip, however, in the past year (70% or 52.7 million adults). Which sporting event did they attend most? Baseball games topped the list as some 17% of U.S. adults who traveled 50 miles or more sought to enjoy America’s Favorite Pastime. Major League Baseball Spring Training is but a one-hour car drive from the Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort. Enjoy a half-day lounging under a Chickee Hut on the island’s famous beach before making the short trip to Fort Myers where two of the game’s best - Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins - call home. Baseball fans, could it get any better than this? For ticket information contact www.ticketmaster.com.
