Who's going to games this year?

Post by Shoalzie »

I just bought tickets to a couple of Tigers games...Sunday, June 19 vs. Giants and Sunday, July 3 vs. Yankees. I'm pissed that the Red Sox series is Monday-Wednesday and I can't go to that.

What about the rest of you?

Will probably make the usual half-dozen trips to see the Royals flail aimlessly about.

Hey, you still can't beat the ballpark experience though. You sit out on a sunny day, drink a few beers, eat some hot dogs, look at the pretty girls and hopefully watch a good game.

Now that I'm in MD, I plan on using the company's O's tickets pretty frequently. I've also got all of the Braves v. Nats games circled. A trip or two to NYC for some Mets and/or Yankees action is not out of the question. Philly's only a 1.5 hour drive... so I'll catch a few Phillies games. Going through ATL in July... will catch a couple games against the Pirates. Can't wait for some warm weather and some baseball.

I would like to make a drive down to L.A for a Dodger game. But I got so much going on this summer it might not be possible.

Definitely want to go to a Nats game or two this year,
and hope that someone in the NL East flops so they can finish above last place.

Taking my daughter to her 1st game at Fenway May 11 against Oakland. Wednesday 1:00 game. Still trying to get tickets for the game that falls on my birthday this year, April 3rd. Maybe some of you have heard about this game and would like to pass the hat and grant a birthday boy his wish :P

I might end up going to the Cub-Mariner exhibition game here at the end of March. The games sold out,but they did make the outfield grass available. So I'm hoping my grandpa can score some tickets.

I've got a season plan via the job so I'm sure I'll get to attend atleast 30 losses this year. Thirty game 'I get to keep or give away' package and whatsuch.

3 aces, Backe, and the best closer in baseball means that normally our anemic offense will only have to put up about 3-4 runs.




Ok, you're right. Our offense is going to SUUUUUUUUCK!

You gonna hook a brotha up with some Marlins tickets? :mrgreen:

Might catch a Pirates game if the wife and I go to Pittsburgh this year. Other than that I have no plans. That is, unless someone I know pulls some tickets to Fenway out of her ass.

One of the advantages of living in KC is you can stroll up and get tickets (at or below face value) for any game you please (less STL). No need to scurry around in March trying to snag tickets.

I'll go out several times throughout the season, listen/watch most, shake my head continuously. I'll probably catch a few of the T-Bones minor league games as well.

Right now I am only going to two Red Sox home games. But I am seeing them on the road this year at the Cubs, and I am going to check out a White Sox game while I am there. I am also going to see them play at Philadelphia, and Detroit.

The truly tragic thing is that I envy you being able to do this :(.

As I have said before, thank God for the distance so I am not tempted to throw my money down the shit can for a bunch of ingrate owners :evil:

I'll hit a half dozen or so games, unless Prime hooks me up with some more tickets. Then I'll go to like seven or something.

I like taking the wife and kid to minute maid for Sat. games. Makes for a relatively inexpensive day, and a good memory maker, like last year... When I got to let my Daughter view first hand the delight of the mother scratching Expos kicking our ass. Yeah... memories!

Bought tickets for the Cardinals trip to Philly May 17-19. Two night games and a businessman's special on Thursday afternoon. Probably hit up 3 or 4 more random games the rest of the year.

I can't go through a summer without going to at least two to three games. I grew up with baseball (St. Louis Cardinals) and I'm glad I now live in another great MLB city even though the Rockies pretty much suck out loud; but I mostly blame that on the front office.

Hopefully this season I'll get to more than just a couple. It helps make for a great night on the town and the ticket prices for decent seats are very reasonable, IMO. At least at Coors Field anyway.
