Twenty children got up close and personal with the major league big-timer and received personalized and autographed baseballs. Romo shared his stories of how he became the professional athlete he is today and the children expressed enthusiasm for the ball player.

With the increasing popularity around Romo’s beard, the kids had a great time sporting their own fake beards and taking photos. The group enjoyed ball park snacks including hot dogs by N9NE Steakhouse, popcorn by Brenden Theatres and orange-flavored cotton candy provided by Simon Restaurant + Bar.
