Going to the World Series tonight!

[jerryskids 6,790]

I've never been live to a championship event, so we decided to splurge on tickets for us and our kids (who are hooge sports fans as well).  Heading downtown early, we've got a reservation at a bar/restaurant with an outdoor patio, we'll drink and eat and take in the vibe.  Suns game is downtown tonight as well, and Halloween night, should be crazy there.

Go DBacks!  

[posty 2,696]

Enjoy!!!  Hope you get to see your Diamondbacks win, but looks like a bullpen game for them today...

GO RANGERS!

BEAT THE D-BAGS!

[BeenHereBefore 1,517]

Sounds cool and have fun Jerry

was thinking about going but bleacher seats are over $900.  Have fun Jerry!

[BunnysBastatrds 2,436]

 Halloween night games are great. Have fun.

[wiffleball 4,790]

That's great Jerry.  Will create memories your kids will have forever. Hope things go great. 

[BufordT 434]

Cool. Enjoy. If you want to pay for the tickets, parking and refreshments take the over at 9.5 runs scored. Easy money!

[TommyGavin 790]

Enjoy skids. Funny a Philly phan I know got tickets cheap to all 3 games for the National League Championship series. 
Rooting for you !

Hopefully you did a lot of that. I’m pulling for the D-backs. Maybe I’m the bad juju

Still drinking.

But hey, we're just a touchdown and field goal down! 

[Pimpadeaux 2,406]

I hope you're thoroughly enjoying the game!

Plenty of time left

[Cruzer 1,995]

Can you go again tomorrow??

I jest… As a Rangers fan 1 strike away in Game 6 - I won’t believe this game is over until we actually win it.

Four in the 8th! 

[IGotWorms 4,058]

Hope the rally made it interesting! Sounds like a great experience

[GobbleDog 996]

How much did each ticket cost?  That's what I'd be thinking about after the 3rd inning.

[jerryskids 6,790]

Hi all, thanks for the comments!  It was of course something of a bummer, to go down so much so early, but it was still a great day and experience, and I'm glad my kids got to be there.  

Hopefully Gallen can outduel Eovalde tonight again and send it back to Texas.   

[Cruzer 1,995]

It worked out for us, but I was raging mad as hell early on. 
 

Jung leads off with a double, no outs - instead of bunting him over Lowe (lefty on lefty) swings for the fences and strikes out. I was going bonkers. The next guy up hit a deep grounder to 2nd, that would surely scored him. We got bailed out by a passed ball.

Seats for $212. That's not bad at all. 

The cheapest seats for World Series games at Texas were like $800 for standing room only.

[BeachGuy23 642]

Glad you had fun and it was great of you to give your family that experience.

Well, a few things.  One, those were SRO, and are no longer showing.  Two, that doesn't include fees, which is about 50% on top of that.  Around $250 is the cheapest for nosebleeds, $350 with fees.  Three, everyone is excited for games 1 and 2; I doubt the notoriously rabid Ranger fans would be shelling our $800 for SRO if they were down 3-1.

I've already gone to two NLCS and now the WS, I'll enjoy this one tonight from home.   

[jerryskids 6,790]

Wow, no hit them through six innings and still lost.  Runners in scoring position each of the first five innings and no runs, that's the killer.  Great job by Gallen, and great job by Eovalde to prevent the runs.

Congrats to the Rangers, and I'm super proud of our young, lower-salaried team.   

[BeenHereBefore 1,517]

Wow Jerry you really put the Hex on the Diamondbacks going to that game.

That was crazy. 

[wiffleball 4,790]

I hope you had a good time!

 

I don't know how I got so lucky, but my neighbor offered me tickets tonight - At face value!  

 

Schweet!

You should take a date and bet that would really impress her that you have great connections. Maybe the janitor would let you walk on the field.
