Hey Batter Batter Batter SWING Batter

Rockies Vs. Pirates, Coors Field, Denver
I went to my first baseball game of the season last night. It was the Rockies vs. the Pirates. A guy at work gave me over $100 worth of free tickets. Four tickets, 18th row, right behind the visitors’ dugout. It was foul ball territory all night, and I still haven’t caught mine. I should put that on my big list: catch a ball a MLB game. I’ve come pretty close in the past, just a few seats away. But I haven’t got my fingers on one yet. It was dollar hotdog night too, which, in my opinion, actually is the cake. Watching baseball is the icing. It sucked though, cause I had all these free tickets but couldn’t find a soul to go with me. Granted, I did get the tickets a little late in the day, and I didn’t call everyone (I should have called my Dad). But I can’t believe I couldn’t find anyone to go with me. Amazing. I must be some really shitty company. So I went to the game on my own. But if you know me, you know this is not out of the ordinary for me and I rather enjoyed myself. I had plenty of elbowroom to eat all those hot dogs. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, Rockies lost, 10-15 in extra innings.

Glad you had fun! I would have gone with you even though I don’t follow baseball : )

I would’ve gone but I live in Oregon.
And, I would’ve wanted a Dodger Dog not just some nasty hot dog.
Oh well.

finelyspun - i don’t follow baseball either! i drink beer and eat hot dogs.
lambchop - i normally eat the Rockie Dog with the works (grilled onions and peppers, mustard, catsup, and a touch of saurkraut) but since it was dollar dog night i refrained.

Jesus, let me know next time. I’ll go for sure. I’m going to Saturday’s game, but I’ll be sitting in the Rockpile…

You email me, I’m there. I love going to the game.
6 hubs Says:
kilgore - you know i actually thought about how i should have invited you to the game while i was at it cause i remembered that you had a few entries about baseball and that link to that baseball blog which, in my opinion is just mind numbing. if it ever happens again i’ll let you know.
satan - ditto that.
