That's My Detroit TIGERS!

So last night's Detroit Tigers game started out bad, really bad, okay they were stinkin' up the park.

It was my first game of the year and usually I am freakin' excited no matter what is happening. Not last night. First it was COLD ... especially once the sun went down. Then I was teetering on the fact that I am still getting over being sick from all of last week.

My first 7 innings were really about:




Seats: Look at these cozy cushy roomy seats with a table in the Tigers Den. (Thanks again Deb) It was Magglio Ordenoz night so they were giving out "Maggie" bats.

Food: I was going to get a hot dog and bag of chips. Dog $3.50, chips $1.50 BUT I noticed I could get a kids meal for $5.00 which was a hot dog, bag of chips, juice box, and a toy! I went for the kids meal.




Fountain: As I watched the water fountain shoot streams of cold water, I wondered how the people standing around it could deal with the cold water spraying them in the wind.

Parents: Watched a few sets of parents bringing their improperly dressed for the cold little kids to a late night game on a school night. And what about the mom that let the girls go off by themselves when they were clearly around 10 years old. Doesn't she read the papers about perv's out there in this evil world?

Cameraman: Why do you keep sticking the front of the camera through the hole on the right in the netting behind home plate for a few minutes then moving it 5 inches to the other hole in the netting on the left? There must be a reason.








Hot Dog Vendor: Aren't those bare arms cold? You're fun ... the way you sing super LOUD out "hot daaaaaaaawgs" in your opera voice.


And then the 8th inning.

Tigers 5 Minnesota Twins 9

The Tigers took over, they began playing ball ... GAME ON!
SIX runs in the 8th!

Final score Detroit Tigers 11 ~ Minnesota Twins 9

M'kay Tigers, I'm ready for my first game of the season ... but are YOU GUYS? Being the last place team in the Central Division ... not acceptable!

(Do you think there is an unwelcome jersey buried at Comerica Park?)

I saw this 123 Page meme on Canned Laughter and decided to do it.

Grab the nearest book.
Open the book to page 123.
Find the 5th sentence.
Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
Don't search around and look for the coolest book you can find. Do what's actually next to you.

I propped myself up on an elbow and rubbed my eyes.

Tomorrow morning, Quinn goes in for a teeth cleaning. Thank you Jebus! He is almost 11 and I have never had them cleaned. Probably because he's never had bad breath ... until now.

I'm going out tonight with my friends Debbie and Pam. Pam has a birthday, this year. She was born leap year, so every four years she celebrates ... the biotch, never ages. Here we are in the 80's. Pam was rockin' the bug eye look and I had some Farrah hair going on.

Weekend Baseball ... I Think

Detroit Tigers VS New York Yankees

So, Debbie and I went to another game Saturday night.

The game and the (losing) score doesn't matter. I think they forgot we were all out there to watch a baseball game.

We were certainly entertained, albeit, not with a baseball game. Let's recap the night:

Maggie seemed to be having a nice relaxing conversation with Murry.

"Paws" was tossing T-Shirts into the crowd, not our section natch!


There was a magician (?) performing on the diamond.


We had the usual "di*khead" fan in the crowd.


Debbie insisted these Yankee fans were relatives of their starting pitcher Wang.


The end of the night fireworks rounded out our evening at the amusement park!

Separated at Birth

Sunshine at ...and the pursuit of happiness, is gathering photos from her readers of each person with their celebrity look-a-like. I submitted my photo with a far stretch of someone that I look nothing like, but we both have the same laugh lines.

After yesterday, I think I need to resubmit.

Debbie and I went to Comerica Park for The Detroit Tigers game vs Cleveland Indians. We won't talk about the game or the final score.

It was a day to celebrate #30 Magglio Ordonez. "Maggie" has always been at the top of my list of favorite players. When I got home and loaded my photos from the game, I noticed something very familiar.

I need to check this out further, but I have a sneaky suspicion that Maggie and I may be twins, separated at birth.

WWJD?

For starters, he would probably say:
"Why didn't you wear waterproof mascara?"

This was last night at Stoney Creek Metro-Park

Thank you Debbie and Bea for being there.

Debi? Um ... where's our picture together?
We'll have to take one at the TIGERS GAMES
