All I can say is DISAPPOINTING! It was our last suite game and they LOST. They had won every other suite game, but not this one. I think it’s because we didn’t order any food from the catering service. It’s the only thing we did different. Grrr!!!

Just the two of us… the Banjo Guy… Haren facing a batter… the view from the couch…

Yes, it was just the two of us in the suite. We’re spoiled.

The crowd filling in the outfield… and fireworks!

The game actually zipped along quite nicely. The end result was the only real disappointment. Then we had to wait for the crowd to fill in the outfield before the fireworks could start. They shot them off towards our side of the stadium, which is why I got some of the overhang in my pictures. Bah!

We got home before midnight, which is always a good thing. 😉
