The day was very humid, although thankfully not very hot. Nicki got four free tickets to a Wizard's baseball game from Big Brothers Big Sisters.  Our seats were for section 301, the bleachers.  We took Carly and Holly with us.




It's a good thing we parked near the back of the lot since quite a few foul balls went over the side and crashed into cars! The first batter was #7 of the Michigan.. ahh.. The Michigan Stinkbugs, I think.




"Yo, fool, you can't be up heaah!" "Excuse me, I'm going to step in for you now. Muahaha!"




Between the innings there would be some sort of brief entertaining skits. In this exciting contest, kids pick up plastic bottles and put them inside a bigger plastic can.  Wow.




The hotdogs were only 50 cents tonight, normally they're two dollars!  Good god, you can buy a package of Corn King's for 40 cents on sale!




Fort Wayne: Home of the infamous.. Hot dog bazooka? Yum




I got yer E Coli right here, toots! Some 'pitchers' of the pitcher..








Deauuuuy!




This was another one of the between-inning contests.  Some kids played musical chairs.

It came down to a real fat kid and a real skinny kid.  The fat kid won by physically holding the skinny kid as they walked around the chair.  Blah!

Some people thought the bottle game was more fun.








Those are butterflies




The Wizards weren't doing so well tonight. Ninth inning, the Wizards are up.  Two outs.




Strike 1 93 MPH




Strike 2! Doh!




The Michigan Muskrats win the game!




Nicki had $75 riding on the Wizards. I'm a winner!
(and $7 in hotdogs)



While we were waiting for the elevator on level 2, I got these pictures of other, happier fans.




He said to me "Man, do I have to do this?".. Well, yeah, shut up and stand still! :b A minute later, their mom came over.  She had no idea that I was spying on them.




Carly and Holly's house. Zzzz, time for bed!
