$4 Tix!

That's right, my friends and I went to the Pittsburgh Pirates Baseball Game the other night for only $4! Granted, they were general admission bleacher seats but there is not a bad seat in PNC Park anywhere so we got a steal of a deal! You ask, why were these tickets so cheap? Well I shall tell you! It was the 100th anniversary of the closing of Forbes Field (our old baseball stadium). So to celebrate, they sold the tickets, for atleast one section, at the same selling price that they were when Forbes Field closed. They also brought in old Pirate players and were playing the Chicago Cubs, which is who we played at the last game at Forbes. Cute, right? It was a marvelous time of hanging out and having fun with each other. Since there weren't that many people there at the game (why? because it's the pirates and it was a rainy/threatening to storm night) I suggested that we sit somewhere else because the seats were available and the general admission bleachers were packed. We sat down in awesome seats under the overhang, out along the 3rd base line in the outfield. All was good, we could see the jumbotron, the view was good, and we could potentially catch a fly ball! About 5 minutes later, an older usher came up to us and asked for our tickets. Uh oh. When he found out that we didn't belong there he kicked us out! Seriously? NO ONE WAS SITTING THERE AND NO ONE SAT THERE THE WHOLE GAME. Stupid Pirates and their stupid rules. Now my parents on the other hand, sat along the 1st base line and DID NOT get told to move. Now thats unfare. Just because they are adults. ridiculous. It was an interesting night...but good.

peace.
