Got to stay away from the left field corner, as inviting as the seats may be. <br /><br />The right field corner, however...<br /><br />I recall a time, years ago (2006), when Haas, Holmer, and I used deception and cunning to infiltrate the lower g in the right field corner. Our actions were wrong, but our hearts were pure. This malfeasance, however, was for the good. Our heckling of Vlad Guerrero caused him to make a costly error in right field. Our proximity to the Angels bully allowed us to give them a proper heckling. As a result, K Rod walked Weird Lew Ford with the bases loaded in the ninth for the game tying run. In the 10th Cuddy hit a walk off homer over the baggie off of thoroughly heckled reliever JC Romero. <br /><br />In conclusion, you can thank our sneaking down for the 2006 division championship.souphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13094300642541520233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-85195902150000654612009-08-14T13:11:42.283-05:002009-08-14T13:11:42.283-05:00I think you may have missed some of the sarcasm/ab...I think you may have missed some of the sarcasm/absurdity, but I should have been more objective, leaving an open discussion, instead of saying "bravo"<br /><br /><br />So here's my bravo case:<br /><br />She's like a filter. She filters all the dumb, drunk cheaters. That leaves room for the more sophisticated brand of cheater, like myself. I simply grab an old used ticket for the lower level, and show that to her. They never look at the dates anyway. She doesn't care if you sit there as long as you have a ticket for greater than or equal the price of the seat you're sitting in. <br /><br />Or you could to the daymonster print-at-home tickets. <br /><br /><br /><br />But yes, late in the game the ushers should be much more lax.haasertimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03599382952834537011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-9922639861366083312009-08-14T12:55:58.103-05:002009-08-14T12:55:58.103-05:00total b.s. if a lower level section is nearly e...total b.s. if a lower level section is nearly empty and it's several innings into a game, then ushers should look the other way if (civil behaving) fans take some of those seats.<br /><br />i've walked down plenty of times and have never been ushered out. you just have to not sit in the front row, not sit on top of others and be civil in general.<br /><br />the pohlads have enough money. spend more of it for a better roster and the seats will be too full for this to be an issue. is real small-time to be worried about upper deck, loyal fans taking empty seats late in games - isn't saving the franchise any money over the long term - just makes them look cheap, petty and miserly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801768329447624769.post-89997193880202509932009-08-14T12:03:00.712-05:002009-08-14T12:03:00.712-05:00If it weren't for the seat nazi the Pohlads wo...If it weren't for the seat nazi the Pohlads would have sold the team by now.
