Last friday night Brad and I met up with some of my friends from college and their hubbies for a mariners game. It seems to be turning into a yearly tradition. My group of friends from PLU and I all lead pretty busy lives so it is a nice way to make sure we get together at least once during the summer. We typically have been getting together for other important events such as weddings, birthdays, etc. Our friend Emily is having her first baby this November so we will be getting together for her baby shower in the next couple of months.
I am not a big baseball fan. I especially do not like to play it. I am afraid of the ball. I blame this fear on being hit in the mouth too many times playing catch with my dad growing up who did not take it easy on his little girl. However, I have always been a fan of sports and competition so it doesn't take me too long to get into any sort of game if it has any sort of intensity. Also, Mariners games for me are really just about being at a special event and enjoying being out with friends.
We had a lot of fun. It was kind of sad how many open seats there were. Fortunately, for us that meant Brad and I could move down and sit in front of our friends so I could actually talk to them. We got to see our first runner onto the field. He was tackled in 5 seconds and escorted off the field. After the game we talked to a security guy who told us he would be in jail all weekend and would be facing about 10,000 dollars worth of fines. The girls and I were just hoping he wasn't married.
