They were energetic, fun and hilarious. I'm an Astros fan and wouldn't have dared wear any of that there, but some poor bastage did and got soaked with beer. It was fun riding back on the subway and hearing the fans jabbering with each other. Great, memorable experience. I can't imagine what it would be like to see a Red Sox game in Yankee stadium. I imagine there are a few fights. No surprise that Mariners games against Red Sox and Yankees always attract a ton of out of town fans as part of their vacation. They are vocal, slightly irritating sure, but otherwise well behaved. Toronto Blue Jays fans, however, are the only ones I've had issues with. Obnoxious as fock, eh? It's not really "Toronto" fans but all the Canadians (actual Canadians, not restaurant "Canadians") that come down from Vancouver since there aren't any other Canuck teams.

I’m happy to be away currently from the USA as repression is in the air, brought to us by the conservative Supreme Court and the various conservative state legislatures. Maybe the glorious 4th of July will remind these folks what America and freedom are really supposed to be about. I hope so but I doubt it. See you guys when I get back.

TommyGavin 790 Posted July 4, 2023 Back when MLB players went on strike (‘94?) I had tickets to Fenway Wrigley Jacobs Cominsky in one week. I saw double header in Boston on Sunday then they went on strike ruining my stadium tour. Went to Wrigley years later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Life ain't horrible. Working Wednesday morning won't be great but, my commute is just down the hallway. All time day, hope you boys enjoyed something similar.
