Monday

I am suffering from a total lack of creativity at the moment, hence, the title of this post.
This weekend, we FINALLY picked the right Pirates game to attend. Yes, we actually saw them WIN. However, I have come to realize that going to sold out games at PNC Park (this ONLY happens on fireworks nights, such as this past Saturday) is not such a great thing. We could only get tickets in the really cheap seats ($9 as opposed to our normal $16 seats). As a result, we were with all the people who paid $9 to come see fireworks. People were standing up, going for food, going to the bathroom, walking up and down the aisles, standing and talking to people in the aisles throughout the whole game. Sadly, we were right on the aisle, and therefore missed about 60% of the game.
Listen people, here is some baseball etiquette for you:
DO NOT GO BACK AND FORTH FROM YOUR SEAT UNLESS IT IS AN INNING BREAK!!!!
Honestly, how hard is that? It would be FIRST PITCH in an inning, and I would miss it because some idiot two rows down decided IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE INNING BREAK that he HAD TO HAVE a hotdog right that minute.
We've been spoiled by usually having half a section to ourselves at PNC. I have come to realize that people are just inconsiderate. Never mind there's actually a GAME going on that some people actually want to see. Still, I should know better. Fireworks in Pittsburgh only happens every other week, after all.
And baseball just isn't Nascar, right?
