Baseball

Last night was Mormon Night at the local baseball stadium and we went as we do every year. This season, Tarzan wanted to try the all-you can-eat pavilion out in left field - or right field, I can never tell - one of the fields. I was all excited until I looked up what was included in this all-you-can-eat deal; the stadium hot dogs, sodas, nachos, peanuts and popcorn. Tarzan can eat his weight in hot dogs but after one and a half I'm done. Now if they'd included ice cream, cotton candy and/or the frozen lemonade it would have been a whole different story.
Nevertheless, it was an eventful...uh, event.
As we arrived, so did an ambulance:Apparently a guy on the other side of the field had a heart attack.
Editor's note: we have since learned that the man passed away. Makes me feel bad for making light.
Our seats were really pretty good, on the walkway between sections so we had plenty of leg room and no one standing in our way, even during the wave.
I don't know if it was my hair, a lucky night or the fact that my skills at self photography have improved but these did not suck as much as others I have taken.
ATL and I:
Tarzan and I:
And this was an action shot from all the way across the field. LOVE my 18x optical zoom baby: I didn't realize it at the time - though I should have - that this guy was a regular but he was so funny and it's a great song and he probably has a contract now:
What happens if he doesn't come every night?
Oh, and our team lost.

This is me, at a baseball game.

Looks like tons 'o fun! I always enjoy a baseball game sitting next to Pbear 'cause he is sooo good explaining all the nuances and strategies taking place of which I and most bench-sitters around us are oblivious.
STEEERRIKE!!!!!

Maybe having the Mormons there made them lose. Just sayin'. Now I want a hot dog.
