All-American Past-Time


Last week, my friend Mike and I went to an Oakland A's game. We try to go at least once each season, and since the seats were only $2 (before all the silly service charges) and hot dogs were $1, we couldn't resist!

I love watching baseball live and in person. All the people to watch, the view of the stadium, the smells of garlic fries, hot dogs, nachos...

And the game got pretty exciting toward the end, with the A's winning in the bottom of the 9th! YAY!!!

Here's our self-portrait:

Have you even been to a baseball game? What was your favorite thing about it?

Cute pics! My husband loves going to games whenever he can get good deals on tickets. He has been bringing my son to games since he was two. I have quit going with him since he now has his little buddy to take with him. I never really got into the games, but I loved people watching (especially with binoculars)!

I don't watch sports, but I do like hot dogs.

Thanks, Julie. But he's just a good friend, really! No one ever believes me when I say that though. :p

How fun! My last game was a work event for my ex-husband... one of their vendors has a box, so I got to ignore the game, have a lovely dinner, and drink in the box level bar!
(Bacon instead of celery in the bloody mary....THAT was the best thing.)

nice pics:) I have gone to a couple of baseball game, at the last one I went to a few of the players got into a huge fight which turned in to a bit of a riot, it was kind of scary but they sorted it out pretty fast and got right back to playing.

Huge White Sox fan here! I've been to several stadiums including Chicago (both), Baltimore, Milwaukee, Kansas City, and Cleveland. Watching the game live is so much more fun for me! Added you to my blogroll!
