Rock Bottom
Shockingly the hotdog didn't make me sick yesterday... Could this be another snack omgHelmetSundae adds to her list of faves? Stay tuned for the exciting answer!

omgReds is getting the party started on Saturday. Ow!
Ya'll,
Finally, Brandon Phillips Bobblehead night is upon us! I've talked with
most of you all about plans on Saturday, but here's where we lay it all
out...
Timeline / Events
3:00 - Meet downtown at Park Place @ Lytle (our building)
Most of you have been to our guest parking in the back. We'll have passes for you to park there for the evening (free!). If you have not been down, just let me know and I'll get you directions
3:15 - Off to GABP
We'll make sure we have everyone and stroll over the the ballpark.
3:55 - First pitch
Odd game time, isn't it? I double checked... Don't worry.
4:45 - Eat foodz at ballpark (omgHelmetSundae editorial note: OW!)
Well, we can do this anytime, really. Or, you don't have to eat, that's up
to you. Just putting it in the schedule.
6:44ish - Ballgame over!
Red win! Brandon Phillips hits for the cycle!
6:51ish - Head back to PP@L
Stroll back to the condo.
7:13ish - PP@L Roof
We'll have some drinks (adult & otherwise) and helmet sundaes (yum) on the roof of our building (pretty view). Hopefully it will be a nice night. 40% chance of showers right now... But who knows by then.
Oh... fun toppings for your sundaes will be available. Holla! (omgHelmetSundae editorial note: HOLLA!)
So... How does that sound? Let me know for sure that you are in. I'll be
buying tickets for everyone towards the end of the week (Thrusday?). I
figure that we'll just get some inexpensive seats in the "view level"
since it's a premium priced game. Looks like those tickets are $19/seat.
(omgHelmetSundae editorial note: Omg is DEF in, and it all sound fab.)
If you have any questions, just let me know!
:)

Legend's Field
Tonight the Tall Drink of Water, his brother and I went to George Steinbrenner stadium in Tampa to watch the Tampa Yankees take-on the Lakeland Flying Tigers.
I gotta say, it was pretty awesome. We sat behind the dugout so the boys could potentially catch fly-balls (they didn't) and so omgHelmetSundae could check out the strapping young players (she did).
The weather was beautiful, the moon was full and though there were no helmet sundaes to be had (outrage!), it was fun to watch big league hopefuls take the field. Watching talented young athletes is one of my favorite things to do, and it somehow seemed more pure than watching the Reds.
Besides that, I thought they played better ball the most of the Reds, but that's just me.
Anyway, couldn't tell ya who won. I ended up rooting for both teams at various points (why pick one when there are two?!) but I think TDW (or his brother) at one point said there was a great "pitcher's duel" happening, so maybe no one scored.
"It was nastiest burger I've tasted. I seriously wanted to spit it as soon as I took a bite." TDW
TDW took one bite, his brother, to confirm the burger's nastiness, took the other bite. Hence the weird bite pattern here.
I had nachos with double cheese and lots of jalepenos. Yum. What Legend's Field lacks in helmet sundaes it makes up for in mucho nachos and jalepenos.

And We Lost. Again.
But who cares, because the most hilarious thing ever happened.
It was singles night or college night or Chipotle fan-a-thon night or something or other, so everyone was pretty raucous.
Sometime during the 7th inning a hotdog came flying down from the seats above us and hurtled its way over the edge of the upper-deck. I'd love to see the look on the person's face who's lap it landed on down there.
Then the group of people behind the Hogdog Incident of '08 were screaming, "This is an outrage! A hotdog has gone over the edge! Who did this?! Dear God, someone threw a hotdog!"
About 10 minutes later security threw the hotdog thrower out of the game. He was laughing and his friends were yelling, "Finally you caught him! Justice to the hotdog has been served!"
It was pretty funny. omgHelmetSundae is not in favor of throwing delicious ballpark snacks, unless of course it's a hotdog, then it's hilarious.
