Special Guest Appearances -- TAM @ SEA 8.10.08

Nolamarinergirl1_tiny by NOLAmarinergirl on

Apparently the responsibility of drafting another fan post falls to me, as LFoJL is too lazy--but he needs to know where to be on August 10th, and needs to know before August 1st. 

Problem is--I haven't been to Safeco for four years.  I don't know where a good meetup spot would be for any LL'ers who are out to watch the Rays (likely) beat our Mariners. 

So here's the place to give some suggestions!  Let us know if we'll see you!  Let me know how much beer-buying money I need to bring!  Or just party in our post!

Special Guest Appearances by Last Fan of Jose Lopez, NOLA Mariner Girl, and possibly more.

Good use of the "me" tag

I hear we might get Matt Damon to appear

I'd say by the bullpens?

That way there’s something to do to pass the time while you wait for people to get there plus there’s the best beer vendor in the stadium right there.

If you go to the Budweiser Good Sport stand close to the Centerfield entrance

You can get a free soft drink as long as you “promise” to be a designated driver

I got in a glaring match with Arthur Rhodes

That fucking pepsi machine in 2003 was a pussy

Dickey will talk to anyone, Rowland-Smith and Morrow will give a nod or something, but RRS isn't in the pen anymore.

Charlton will also talk to just about anyone, but who cares.

My two year-old son handed morrow a ball the other day, and as he was signing it, he said,

“how are you doing, little guy?”

My son said, “I have to go poop SO bad.”

You can’t put a price on that shit.

Good talk with Brandon, though. I told him I couldn’t wait for management to stretch him out. He said, “yeah, like THAT’S going to happen.”

Apparently he’s a bit frustrated.

Saw your comment on Ryan's blog and was curious on what the story was

Your son sounds adorable….and that is just priceless.

At least the paper/news stories are actively talking about stretching Morrow out…the paper said probably before the end of the season (send him down to Tacoma in August, bring him back up in Sept) which I find hard to believe but we shall see…

Thanks,

whatever it is, it needs to be sooner than later. This is obviously another valuable player thrust into unhappiness via horrible team management. i hope he’s satiated soon, and we can all relish mid nineties fastballs killing opposing players.

I'll be driving up from Eugene in time for the 1:10pm game.

I don’t think I’ll be getting there very early…

Well at least you warned me

I think a surprise butthol would have been worse

Did I get a message deleted?

I had responded to this and now it’s no where to be found. It wasn’t even bad.

I fucking hate you Mariners

Fair enough...I wish I didn't know that. I'm intrigued by what I missed :(

Was it Souther that fucked it up?

Uhhh what?

I just asked Nola if she was staying in Eugene? Did I miss a long rambling subthread spanning off of it?

by Souther on Jul 25, 2008 9:56 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

So, where are people sitting?

I’d like to go, but this team in nowhere near entertaining enough for me to sit alone, and I can’t bring myself to root for the Rays in this game.

FanShots are underrated.

by acblue on Jul 25, 2008 3:22 PM PDT   0 recs

I'm just going to buy the cheapest ticket possible and then sit wherever

ushers won’t care and there’s tons of empty sections.

by Matthew on Jul 25, 2008 3:34 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

That's usually what I do.

I just wander the whole game.

It looks like this is becoming a de facto LL meetup

I may have to get a ticket and show up. When alone, I usually get a cheap ticket and camp at the little minibar over the bullpens by LF, where the stairwell to the bullpens is at.

Damn. I'll be in Eastern WA up by the Canadian border that day, or on my way back.

No way I can make to the game or any meetup.

AKA "BRO-RAY" according to drunk Graham...

There is a cool little area on the 300 level

on the third base side. Good views of downtown and the water. It may even have a name, though it escapes me at the moment…

Why are all LL meetups on Sundays?

Initial prediction: I have to work.

We don't negotiate with terrorists.

by Mariner John on Jul 25, 2008 9:07 PM PDT   0 recs

Same here

I think they were moved to Sunday so that Red could play, but Red hasn’t been here in a little while, so I am not sure. I used to get Sundays off, but now it seems I have to work all day every Sunday.

Correction

, but Red hasn’t been here hasn’t participated in softball in a while. Maybe we can move them back to Saturday that’d be cool.

I might be tempted in buying a ticket up to Seattle just to put a face to NOLA and LFOJL.

How do these meetups usually work? Yeah, enjoy a game together, but what about after-game activities?

Hint:

My face-not the image you used in the ad.
His face-giant clam.

by NOLAmarinergirl on Jul 26, 2008 5:11 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I would go if other LLers go

But I will wait until closer to game time to see if other plans interfere or not.

You guys are convincing me to buy yet another "spontaneous" ticket

At least this one the planning started more than 3 days in advance…
RR-S had part in the other “Hmmm I think going to the game sounds good today” drainages of $$ haha

But I am curious as to what faces I am typing at…

As for meeting places: I have bought seats all over the stadium this yr and there isnt a bad seat..Each section has a different “atmosphere” like bleachers usually more animated/rowdy for example. I like hanging by the bullpens…good place to meet friends if you can grab tables back there. And there’s always Lookout Landing!

by Smith18 on Jul 25, 2008 10:57 PM PDT   0 recs

Ill be there

I rarely miss a Sunday game. Besides, I have to catch as many games as I can in August since Im missing the last two weeks of the season.

My quick smells like french toast.
