but not tailgating. I’ll also have 3 friends with me who have never been to a baseball game before. It feels kinda pimp, to be honest. I’ll make sure that I have time to either swing by or sneak away. We haven’t bought tickets yet, but we’ll be up in the hyvee $9 seats (meaning that we’re going with the self-upgrade route)

did you have to schedule this on the day of the NFL draft? after the world series and super bowl, this is pretty much the biggest thing in the sports world to me. maybe next year.

We are responsible for our own tickets, correct? I should be there.

a local radio station employee told me that they have 30(!) free tickets for every home game so i’m trying to work some mojo.

About the potential for a fistfight erupting when discussing the merits of Jason Smith?

But i wont see you guys probably cause all of you hate me :( no but i might stop by i have season ticks. but i definately better see that Gload Will Explode.. make a sign that says Pena for MVP too :D

...i’ll be there. (You’ll be disappointed to see that, no, I am not Mariah Carey).

but it turns out I was offered a lecturer job next fall and have to spend Saturday afternoon in an orientation. On the good side I will be teaching in Florence and Paris next fall. But rest assured, I would rather be a RR Fest Saturday than anywhere else.

Will be there sometime between 2:30 and “Hurry up before all the blankets are gone!”

I will be in section 312, row T seats 10-13. Yay.

I hope to make it, but doubt I’d be there until 40 minutes before the game at the earliest.

As posted in the other thread, I was very optimistic about making this until the hosts for the ulimate disc (that’s frisbee for you laypeople) sectionals-Bowdoin-bumped the tournament back to tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be able to coordinate some type of meet up at the K this summer.

game for the past month now, but the family “follow the Royals” vacation is starting Sunday. We’re heading to Oklahoma City to stay one night and we have to leave by 7 or 8 PM Saturday night so that we can drive while the kids are asleep. I tried really hard for the “leave from the stadium” bit, but I was out voted on it. On the bright side, I will be making another “live from enemy lines” post while at the Rangers stadium (Ameriquest?). Anyhow, if you guys remember our little vacation last year, you remember we were there for the I-35 bridge collapse. Hopefully, nothing crazy happens while we’re in DFW this year. Have fun guys and I’ll keep you posted on the enemy from the Big D.

But my wife went into contractions last night. We thought we’d have our first Royals Retro Jr. Alas, it was just a false alarm.

So, my apologies.
