Back to Milwaukee?!

Xmas is early for Brewers fans like myself! Shortly after trading for Shawn Marcum from the Jays, the Brew Crew traded for 2009 Cy Young winner Zack Grienke from the Royals. In a rare blockbuster trade the Brewers have upgraded their rotation AND somehow managed to have a better offseason than the Yankees. This prompted me to promise my nephew we would go to Milwaukee if they return to the playoffs in 2011. It'll be my 30th anniversary as a Brewer fan and what better way to celebrate. Bark already returned my text and he is down for going back as always.

Munchkin Land, U.S.A.

In Kansas City they busted out the last remaining Munchkin from the Wizard of Oz. I've seen other Munchkin's since and I'm not sure of the discrepancy. While we were in the Midwest trolling with Munchkins my bro saw Shaq on his vacation.

Leap Day '08!

It's not every day you get to blog on February 29th. Actually it's every four years! But you know that! This pic is from our 2005 trip to KC. We took a pic automatically and then an usher came over and asked us if he could take our pic. Just like NY !?!
Shira and I plan on going to DC sometime this year for my 20th stadium.

Stadium #18 Kaufmann KC

Since i was a little kid ive wanted to visit the stadium in KC, and it didnt disappoint. The Red Sox nation overtook the stadium but the Royals won the game. Bronson Arroyo started and Schillin was on the cover of the KC program. Easy access to the stadium via the bus. One of my favorite stadium visits! Got to love the waterfalls!!!

Toronto etiquette

This was the first stadium I was ever at in which they would not let you back to your seats until the half inning ended. What a novel and courteous idea. When I got up to buy something I had to wait until the inning was over so I wouldn't ruin the game for any fans. I've only also seen this at San Fran. Good job Caknuckleheads and West Coasters! By the way, the Skydome is "GiNormous!"

Stadium #8 Skydome

I don't care what they call this stadium now it's the SKYDOME! Roof was open when Max and I rolled into town. The previous game I had just been to was the A's at Yankees in which Bernie and Justice hit back-to-back to end it. This game ended on a walk off against the Royals. For some reason I can't recall who hit it. I'll have to check my boxscore. On the way to Toronto, Max and I won three goldfish in upstate NY. They survived Montreal but would ultimately meet their demise in Detroit.
