Experience the excitement and atmosphere of Beloit Sky Carp games at ABC Supply Stadium Through the Eyes of A Season Ticket Holder

Keith Ingram and his family are avid fans of the Beloit Sky Carp, finding happiness in their experiences at ABC Supply Stadium. Since opening in the summer of 2021 and now into its third season, the thrill of attending games is like hitting a home run.

A lifelong resident of Beloit, Keith, along with his parents, six siblings, and numerous nieces and nephews, has witnessed Beloit’s growth firsthand. “Beloit has grown in so many ways,” Keith expresses. From new businesses, restaurants, and activities, there’s always something happening.” The construction of the ABC Supply Stadium was a natural progression for a city on the rise.

As season ticket holders, Keith and his family eagerly anticipate each year’s Sky Carp season, attending about ninety percent of home games. With the 2024 season underway, they’re overflowing with excitement, knowing that each new season brings fresh surprises and enhancements to the ballpark and fan experiences. ABC Supply Stadium never fails to offer something different, whether it’s themed events, dazzling fireworks displays, or special promotions.

Nestled along the banks of the Rock River and the Stateline Area, ABC Supply Stadium stands out as more than just a typical minor league baseball venue. Its picturesque location draws residents from Illinois, contributing to the vibrant fanbase and shared pride for Beloit. Beyond its scenic setting, Keith emphasizes the warmth and hospitality extended by the stadium staff. “The staff members do such an incredible job, being helpful and kind, they make you feel welcome.”

The stadium is more than just a place to watch a game. It’s a community, a place where you can’t help but smile and soak in the moment of being surrounded by fellow fans. Entertainment and good vibes are what the Ingram family is all about. “Spending time together and sharing laughter contributes to creating lasting memories and family bonding,” Keith explains. He fondly recalls a standout moment from last season when his nephew had the opportunity to join players on the field during warm-ups. “He even got the chance to throw the first pitch,” Keith reminisced.

While the stadium’s atmosphere is nice and relaxing on a summer night, the thrill is at its peak during the mid to late stages of the game. Keith’s favorite memory of baseball action at the stadium was a game just before the 4th of July when Khalil Watson executed a steal of home and was able to level the score. The crowd became electrified as the Sky Carp prepared for a comeback and sealed the win.

ABC Supply Stadium accommodates families with kids; the Ingram family can stand behind that. Paw Patrol, First Responders, Star Wars theme nights, fireworks shows after the game, dancing with Poopsie, the list goes on. Not to mention, “the ice cream, cheese fries, and nachos are always a favorite of ours while enjoying the game and festivities around the stadium,” Keith explains.

Being season ticket holders, Keith and his family know the inside scoop and all the ballpark’s secrets. “Arrive early when the stadium opens to explore the beautiful ballpark,” Keith recommends. Along the way, you’ll run into fantastic staff to answer any questions. Above all, Keith emphasizes, “Get ready to have a good time from start to finish!” His insider tip?
