Take Me Out to the Ballgame

Friday night our group had decided to go to see the Travelor's play at the new Dickey Stephens stadium. Something else was planned that everyone decided to go to, so it got cancelled. This did not ruin our plans though. Rachel, Rachel and I went alone. To be honest I really don't know what is going on with the game, I go for the company and food. The game was a double-header so we got there half-way through. The only seating available was the grassy berm seating and the Beer Garden (where smoking is allowed). My allergies don't need any more of an irritant so we went with the grassy berm. Whoever though it would be a great idea to have seating on the opposite side of the field in the grass, was not the brightest star in the sky. I mean I don't even have ADD but trying to watch a game with the audience behind them was a total distraction, you could barely see where the ball was half the time. We took a collective vote and decided there were plenty of empty seats in the stands, so we headed over. We found an empty row, looked like we knew what we were doing and sat down. To be real honest it did not help with my attention much. I really can't remember anything of the game. Once the lightening started all our attentions were turned to that. But I had a great time.
The sky was beautiful.

Great company

The end of game one. We did win that one.
We left before game two was over but we were down 4-1 so I am not sure we would have wanted to stay, that is if we had been paying attention.
