Take me out to the Ball Game.............

I knew we were going to a Ball Game but for some reason I didn't know it was a Baseball Game.  I was pleasantly surprised when I realized it.  I like going to Baseball Games.  I like the game and I enjoy watching the people at the games.  The food......where else to do get 12 in hot-dogs surrounded by more than ketchup and mustard?  Also for those that like to drink....and there are plenty that do....they have beer....lots of beer.  Beer makes peoples personalities change....and their smell.

Everyone at the game where given a lanyard and something saying the Bee's hosted this exhibition game.  So they look official but what are they good for really?

They are good eye covers.  They keep the sun out really good.  When you cover your eyes with them it brings out one's lips....

They would really be useful if you were having an eye exam.  Cover one eye at a time.  They don't bend so you would be pushing on your eye and it would be ready to read the charts afterwards without having to wait for it to focus because you were pushing on it.

They fit nicely at the top of ones glasses if you didn't want to be like everyone else and have it hanging from your neck.

Or you could use it to cover your mouth so that the deaf people can't read your lips. I'm really glad I received this awesome gift.  I just might find a few more uses for it.

The Malone's invited us to go with them.  I thought it was nice of them to invite us.  I'm glad we have a few of the same interests of others.  It's always fun enjoying a day with friends.  It was a nice spring day too.....so perfect for a baseball game.

A few foul balls were hit our way.  Thank goodness we were paying attention.  One ball even landed in my seat between my back and the seat.  It fit because I was ducking down worried that it might bounce off a chair or head and come back to me.  It did and we became owners of an official baseball.

We owned it for a few innings until the end of the game.  The guy behind us really wanted it and right off offered us $60 cash for it.  I told him I was going to hold out until later when he had a few more beers in him and see if the price would go up.  He said that's all the cash he had but was good for more if we wanted it.  At first Larry wanted to keep the ball.  I would have just given it to him...but couldn't resist the offer.  Larry finally decided that the guy could afford the ball with all the things he was talking about (he never quit talking) and it would pay for all of our dinner.  I liked his decision.

I had a few mustaches in my pocket for the 7th inning stretch.  Larry looks happier about it than I think he really was.  I reassured to him it was the better choice of the things I thought about bringing.

We had a great time and dinner tasted even better knowing that we weren't really paying for it.  I'm glad we were able to make the guys behind us happy too.
