A Night at PETCO Park
At one point during the game I watched in amazement as a rather large couple appeared and attempted to squeeze in their seats. They didn't actually sit into the chair, they sort of rested on the arms. But the poor people on either side of their seats had to lean in either direction, away from the large couple. Of course, they proceeded to consume several hot dogs and virtually anything that made its way past their row. But I digress....
Since I work for PETCO, (and live part-time in San Diego) I have become a Padres fan, but to be honest my heart just isn't 100% into the Padres. Maybe if they were the Palm Springs Padres...
For all you true MLB fans, the news of the night was the Boston Red Sox defeating the evil New York Yankees, 7-3. That old rivilry still evokes so much passion and excitment when they square off. Anyway, all in all, it was a fun night at the ballpark. Photo below: Fireworks go off at PETCO Park as the Padres hit their first Home Run.

looks like a nice stadium!
I hear Petco is a great park. We owe a great debt to whoever came up with the trend of building retro parks that began with Camden Yards in 1992.
And, yep, it's always a good night when the Yanks lose. Too bad they really handed it to the Sox tonight.
Thanks for your post on the greatest game of them all.
GO Sox! (I hate the Yankees!)
By the way Rick, I tagged you for a little meme. Don't worry tho, it's an easy one. Here's the link!
Enjoy! ;-)
Padres just may go all the way this year. They have great pitching and should be in the race all year.
I once was trapped next to a super fat lady at a Seattle versus SF Giants game who ate BUCKETS of garlic fries, super sized burgers, dogs, cokes, shakes, peanuts, candy, etc etc etc. She was a human eating machine.
Made me sick to my stomach just watch it. Those damn garlic fries smell so rancid to me.
What is this? A fellow boy from Chicago. Thanks for visiting my blog and yours is pretty interesting as well. I will be back...
