Brewers Vs. Cubs and the Polish wins

On Wednesday we went to a Brewers game in Phoenix.  Though we are not big baseball fans, we thought it would be fun to give it a shot.  The park (Maryvale) is on the northwest side of Phoenix. 



We left early so that we could have time to find the park and to maneuver through traffic.  We got there about an hour and a half early so we bought tickets and left the park to explore the area a little bit.  We came back about a half hour before the game and parked ($6).  The game was scheduled at 1:05.

Not knowing anything about the park, we bought "best available" tickets on the brewers side.  Tickets were $22 for a box seat aisle 10 rows up from home plate and looking straight down the 3rd base line:




The above were taken from our seats.  If you look closely, you can see the cheap seats ($8) on the grass behind the fence. 

For the person who can't believe we attended a baseball game, here is added proof:



Brewers won 12-5.  Polish sausage won the race.

We actually had a very good time at the game.  But a rather odd occurrence happened.  On Tuesday night while walking around the RV park, we met a couple from Sauk City, Wisconsin.  They mentioned that they were planning to go to the Brewer game also.  We told them we would look for them as we were also going to the game.  We sat in Box section 103 seats L1 and 2.  They sat next to us in seats L3 and L4!  And Box 103 row L won tickets for free chicken wings at Hooters!  And we got Culver's coupons!

A good day.
