First I would like to thank the young Texas couple ( I beleive that they are from Texas from the address on the ticket stub) for giving my son and me a pair of tickets in sect 132 ( the tickets where a lot better than our originals). About a half hour before the show this couple came up to us and asked us if we had tickets which we did. They told us if they had better tickets than us they would give us their extra tickets and they did. I expected to see them in side but they must of had seats else where and we did not see them again.. Thanks for the great seats it was a nice bonus for son and me on his seventh birthday. Also another nice experience came about from people in section 132 talking to my son and finding out it was his bithday. During intermission the fans in section 132 started singing happy birhtday to my son. They had me put him on my shoulders as they sang as the surrounding sections joined in in the song. People lit matches and had him blow them out (a quick fill in for candles) it was great. I have to thank all of the ladies and gents ( especialy the lady from PA. in front of us and Erik behind us who has the same name as my son and his friends) for putting the biggest smile on my son Eriks face it was a great addition to his birthday which I do not think he will ever forget. Now I hope to find the lady that gave us the tickets so we can thank her again ( I think that this will be easier than the jones beach camera mystery). Once again Thanks Everyone

Reading that just gave me multiple goosebumps!!! Way cool!

And Happy Belated Birthday Erik!!

I saw that I was a few rows behind you guys in sec 232. Happy Birthday

Congrats on the birthday. My keets is today the 15th. I've found parrotheads are good to the keets. Makes it fun for all.

And Mike, nice jersey !

What goes around, comes around!!!!

Remember that camera you worked so hard to return? Yep, what goes around, comes around.

And Happy Birthday, Erik!!!

And THAT, my PHriends, is why Parrotheads RULE!

Redlordamazon, I don't know any of the people involved, but THANK YOU phor sharing that story. Just reading it made me happy!

Gonna be hard to top this birthday!

Thanks for sharing that story.....and Happy Belated Birthday Erik!!!!!!!

next year he's gonna want a private concert w/Jimmy

SGH I have to agree with the what comes around goes around theory thats why it was worth the time to get the camera back - good karma.

Ahh yes it will be a birthday that is hard to top and a private concert with Jimmy would be the icing on the cake for Erik and Dad

Thanks everyone from Erik for the Happy Birthday wishes. Its things like this that make him happy. Thanks RLA

well the picture is perfect for my question. how do you go about finding a jersey like yours? online or at a sporting goods store? does the lettering come with it or is that extra? and for those in the know, is there anything like this with "buffettnews.com" on it?

thanks

Hey Mason. I went to Modells & bought the Ranger Jersey off the rack. I have a local sporting goods store that sewed the lettering on for me. The Yankee shirt I bought @ the store which they lettered also. The lettering I was charged seperately for. Any local sporting goods store should be able to do it or know someone that can. They may have to send it out. Good luck in your quest. If you can't get it done locally, pm me.

I bought my jersey at Fenway and had them put the name and numbers on the back just as they would for a players jersey. I'm sure if you call your teams shop or go online to mlb.com or your teams web site they can do it for you.
