The firm took me and my co-workers out to the ball game yesterday. The M’s hosted the Padres and we had great seats … a couple of suites above the Hit it Here Cafe, in Ichiro‘s turf. It was a terrific view, one that normal folk like me don’t get to experience every day (or every decade). If you’ve ever wondered how the high-rollers, um, roll, well I’m here to tell life is pretty good. Open the fridge to a variety of beers and soda pops. Wine also available if that’s your poison. Before the game, munch on buckets of popcorn and peanuts. Sure, it’s typical ball park fare, which is just up my alley, especially when you’re at a ball game.
My pal Mags declared, “Hot dogs taste better at the ball park,” and I couldn’t agree more. In fact, I can’t remember the last time I even had a hot dog. Oh. Scratch that. Other than the dog I enjoyed two weeks ago at Andrea’s graduation bbq, I can’t remember the last time I even had a hot dog (I remember getting a wiener at the Wiener Circle when I was in grad school … could it have been that long?)
hot dog!

That’s a delicious looking hotdog photo. I agree with Mags –hotdogs definitely taste better at the ballpark. That’s probably why I have at least two each time I go. Along with a bucket of my all-time favorite food, popcorn. Sorry you missed dessert! Next time, in addition to the cookie, I also recommend the little upside down helmets with the ice cream.
GG.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who enjoys ballpark classics. I hope you and your BTB do not go to too many M’s games this summer … you may not be able to fit into your wedding tux if you down all that ballpark food!
