...do you think you'll attend this year?
My husband bought our family of four a 10-game-pack for Miller Park, and today's my 1st game... they went without me last Saturday, since I had other plans. (1 or 2 would be plenty for me, but...)

So far the only one I am going to be attending is a Red Sox Yankees game in September.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
Life is short, live long!!
I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

A lot of the charm of the "down town" ball park quickly disapears when you start to figure in travel time, parking, and TRAFFIC
The Giants have that cool ferry ride across the bay, but it's still the better part of a day to attend a game. We'll go to more minor league games

I'll probably end up at about 35-40 games. I have a 10 game plan for the Yanks but through work I have already had the opportunity to get more tickets and I also have a friend who just retired this season from MLB and he still gets tickets through his new gig on TV. I've been to 3 so far this season but next scheduled game is 6/6 against the Sox.

2 years ago, I did 18 games.
Last year, new job, only got to 3.
This year, another new job, so far have already made 2, but it looks tough for a couple months. We'll see.

This year probably 10-12 home games plus 2 games in Toronto and maybe 1 game in NY.
Last season I went to about 12 home games and 6 road games.

We will go to one game, unless we get handed tix from work, then we will go to two.

AMEN!
Minor league, little league, American Legion baseball, women's slo-pitch softball-I have a great time at each of those.
