We Won’t Be Doing that Again Any Time Soon

Sunday, August 24, 2008

I have not been to a Royals game in a very, very, very long time and now I remember why. We went last night to see our niece perform in the pre-game show. Well, me missed the pre-game show because there were a gazillion people waiting in line to get in. I didn’t think that was usually an issue at Royals games anymore. So, basically we missed the entire reason we went to the game. Anyways, we FINALLY got in and had to walk around forever to get to our horrible seats because the construction they are doing kept us from getting to our seats the way we should have been able to. Let’s get back to the horrible seats. I went to MANY Royals games in my youth and I have NEVER had such horrible seats, but they were the only seats available. Can you believe that? I also didn’t know that when you have horrible seats you also have horrible food. You only get good food when you are down closer to the field. I had no idea. The vendor guys don’t even walk around up where we were last night. So, I go and get our food and drinks, sit down and spill a drink all over the guy and girl in front of us. We recover from that though and the rest of the night goes smoothly other than that the way Colm’s little legs hang over the edge of his chair makes him keep kicking the gal in front of him (who is with the same group of people who got the drink spilled all over them). I felt like I was in the worst coach seating ever available on an any airplane ever. The game was boring and we finally left at the 8th inning, as did lots of other people. We then went to have some real food at Mimi’s. The thing that made this whole night even worse is that because we were going to watch our niece (who we didn’t end up getting to see at all) we didn’t get to go to Irish night at the Wizards game. Even if it hadn’t been Irish night the stadium is SO MUCH nicer, there are no bad seats and the food is way better. I think we will be going to sporting events in Kansas from now on.

    At least you didn’t fall down and drop your baby in the parking lot! We won’t be heading back to the K for a while. At least not until Caroline is 5 or so. Maybe even older.
