Marlins New Stadium brick paver inscription ideas for Father's day gift

Hi- I buying an inscribed brick paver at the new Marlin's stadium as a father's day gift for my husband. I'd like to put something more creative/origianl than "Marlins Forever! The Rodriguez Family". So I was wondering if anyone who has been to other stadiums and seen this type of thing had any suggestions?? My husband's name is Nick, my son's name is Nicky and my husband's father is Nicolas- although "officially" all three are 'Nicolas' on birth certificates.

The pavers allow 8 lines w/ about 2 or 3 words per line. link: https://secure.mlb.com/fla/fan_forum/paver_form.jsp

My ideas so far:

MY BASEBALL HERO

FATHER, SON AND

GRANDSON

NICOLAS, NICK

AND NICKY

MY BASEBALL HERO

NICOLAS RODRIGUEZ

TAKE ME OUT

TO THE BALLGAME

I DON'T CARE IF

WE EVER GO BACK

NICOLAS, NICK, & NICKY

thoughts?? thank you!

ps. my father in law is older and his health is a concern for us right now, and one idea i had was to put : "MARLINS OPENING DAY WE WERE THERE" w/ their names, but I really don't know if he will be able to be there :(

thanks Meg!

I know the wording/grammar is kinda funny on my first one, but my thought is that any of them could look at the stone and it would apply to them, (ie., my husband has said that the new baby is his "hero") idk.

I like your idea of making it "from" nicky. it made me think of it in a spainsh version:

My Baseball Heros

Papa y Abuelo

Nick & Nicolas Rodriguez

te quiero,

nicky
