In recent months, 107-year-old Virginia McLaurin has danced with the Obamas at the White House and spun a basketball with the Harlem Globetrotters. On Thursday, she was at Nationals Park attending her first major league baseball game.
#Nats trail, 1-0, after 5 innings. We bet that 107-year-old Virginia McLaurin is enjoying her 1st @MLB game, anyway. pic.twitter.com/ueYrZTa1dJ

McLaurin was honored before the game as part of Black Heritage Day, getting a personalized jersey from Washington Nationals manager Dusty Baker. And, of course, she got to show off some dance moves as well.
And she probably had a little more celebrating to do as the Nationals rallied to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1.
