I have gone to a LOT of M’s games the last couple of years. There is rarely anything to root for. A strike out here or a good play there. But nothing like the playoffs.
I remember Mike Cameron saying in 2001 that Safeco was “the best party in all of Seattle… that started at 7pm” (wink wink).
We have a few back-to-back 95 win seasons and SafeCo will be like that again. 100% full of passionate fans screaming and yelling without the use of the big board telling us to make “NOISE”.
