What the ??

So a few weeks ago my friends Mary and Jill were going to take me for a pedicure for my birthday but I had just gotten one so we postponed...then my toe nail came off which was the result of an injury in late May. So instead we decided to take in a little baseball. When we got to the game we realized our tickets had no section number. Jill new we were in an "All you can eat" section so they directed us to the Diamond Level suites....well after consulting the ushers there, they called a manager and that was not where we belonged and they sent us to the Picnic "All You Can Eat" section.

(at our outfield picnic area)

Ok great, but there are no tables? We asked the usher people again and she tells it looks like they over sold the section, go ahead and get our food and stand at one of the bar top tables while she makes a call...well like 40 minutes later they give us new seats. He tells us we are welcome to come back and eat throughout the game still and moves us to the lower level. (plus gives us 15% off vouchers for the team shop and his business card so we can email him and he'll hook us up with tickets to another game) We decided not to take trips back and forth so we load up with drinks, hot dogs, peanuts and popcorn and head down to our new spot (of course it's almost the 4th inning and we've been wandering around or standing the whole time.)

We didn't receive the warmest welcome because other people had moved in etc. But finally we got seated. In these seats we had a really badly smelling man to the left and a hairy butt crack right in front (no pics sorry) Enjoyed the rest of the game together from our new spots, almost caught a foul ball but the man behind me brought his glove, darn it.

One of the great things about this game was that there was a Montgomery Gentry concert and fireworks after the game. We move a few sections in for the concert and end up sitting in front of some really excited people who really wished they had field passes. Well the man, who may have not had full mental capacity and who was really drunk, went down to try to get onto the field, but when he was sent back he climbed over and made a run for it. The lady was mortified especially knowing that we had pics of her husband being tackled and hauled away.

This all happened in the first song but it didn't ruin the rest of the concert for us, we had lots of fun singing along (beside the wife continually saying she's so embarrassed and is going to kill him and dropping the F-bomb like 800 times) Mary is not a big country music fan but Jill enjoyed herself.

And the music was good too...Lucky Man, Something to be Proud Of, My Town, Hillbilly Shoes, What do ya think about that, and Hell Ya.

After the concert were fireworks presented by Gila River Casino, which were pretty decent. One funny side note, a girl with the group that was behind us very secretively asked me to email the pics I got to her. She took my phone number and sent me her email in a text... and now she has some serious black mail for her friend or family member.

What a fun and crazy night lets recap - wrong seats, no seats, smelly people, crazy people, fun concert and fireworks to end it all. And I'm just thanking my Heavenly Father Jill's crazy driving on the way home didn't end it for all of us.

As they said at the game, firworks on the field courtesy of the D-backs victory, fireworks on the stage by Montgomery Gentry and fireworks in the sky from Gila River Casino.
