Giants come to Denver....

[chickenman]

My all time favorite team will be in Denver this week.
Saw hundreds of games at Candlestick and saw all the greats on this clip. Like the Rockies, Love the Giants...

Had a blast giants won the night game 2- 1 Rockies won day game 12- 10 on an 11 th inning grand slam..
Had to run home after day game fueled by strong coffee and road dubbies, , stopped briefly at Sky highs, He's doing pretty well, whirlwind trip for sure. Was torching a bowl with old friend in parking lot and got rear ended by some fella in a rental car dented wifes caddie bumper...Sorry honey not my fault..This time...
Going to be another great day living the dream, some farming this morning then some fishing this afternoon.

Mans got to eat...My pre game brunch prepared in trunk of car in parking lot at Coors Field, kept me nourished all day.
Was slightly nauseated by the ballpark food malodor. How can people eat that crapola??? Especially the nacho's with what I heard someone call stadium cheese. The fella sitting next to me admitted it was grouse but ate the whole shebang. Also the smell of the hot dogs, kind of acidic.
Also nobody can give the cell phone a rest, texting talking taking pictures of each other, talking business, what about baseball?
I love to watch intently every pitch and play. Got close enough in late innings 5 rows up from home plate and its awesome to watch the pros make plays look so easy.
Can get stamped and exit stadium for tokes and be back at seat within 2 batters.
Toke me out at the ballgame...Got really bent up on Sky Highs. Hash packet he gave me prior to game, stumbling around wondering WTF????
Country boy blown away by the city....

Sounds like we would get along pretty well. Love giants baseball! I prefer to watch from home so I can see each and every pitch break. Being at the yard is nice, but all the stimulation from the crowd and what not destracts me too much from the game. Nice post brotha.

Here ya. But I tuned out all the distractions and watched intently especially when I got right behind the plate a whole new outlook., was pretty baked, got there early and scoped the scene out. was turned around people watching between innings and heard some woman say...Why don't you take a picture??? LOL. Not worth it sorry lady...would have been funny to whip out aand click away...

 

[steelcanaries]

Bahahahaha that's funny. Sitting right behind home plate, that would be a different story for sure. Always wanted to do that. Pretty cool they let you leave the yard so you can take rips. Sweet.

They did hand me a card on way out explaining the rules forbidding public consumption, including vaporizing in stadium prohibited...

I can't wait for the weather to break so I can start catching some games. The Tigers have great seats for dirt cheap.
You can right behind home plate for 75$. After not playing for 15+ years and only watching games on TV I started
to forget how fast the ball is moving and how hard sliders break these days. The velocity and game speed is lost on TV.

Also how they short hop catch the ball no problem and the strong throws...

Nice! I try to catch the A's when they come to Seattle at least once a season. This season the Wife bought me a "Mariners Fan Club Pack"... You get 6, buy one get one free tickets worth up to 60 per ticket then 4, 2 tickets for 2 dollars which can be used for seats up to 35 dollars.... So you know this guy will be seeing more that 1 A's game at Safeco Field...
