Default Gloat

I didn't get any cool new tools or a great deal on some lumber, but I did go
to Fenway Park last Wednesday to see Game 1 of the World Series.

You suck! And I'm not even a baseball fan! Meaningful games are so
cool. I don't even follow MLB and I always enjoy going to Fenway,
much less for the World Series. Fenway Park has such a great "feel"!

My dad saw Game 3 of the 1978 WS (Yankees / Dodgers) from the 3rd base
line, where Graig Nettles made all those cool diving catches.

He sucks too!

I did see Mario Lemieux's return to the NHL, from a seat 5 rows from
the glass, in Pittsburgh, 12/27/2000.

I bought the tix @ face value as an anniversary gift to my wife, who
wanted to see the Penguins play the 'Leafs. We bought the tickets for
$65 each, and a very cheap room across the stree from the Igloo,
BEFORE the return was announced, and got offered $800/seat outside the
arena.

"Happy Anniversary Barry & Leslie" was on the scoreboard. G

Me too and I got the pair of tickets for FREE from a business friend -
so I guess that really is a gloat.
