Johnny....we usually like to have tickets in hand before we even leave the house because we don't want to drive the 5 - 5.5 hours without tickets...so when I say overpaying scalpers I mean ebay, stub-hub, etc. The only time we've ever considered driving down without a ticket and scalping was for game 7 of the NLCS in 2004 against the Astros and my dad chickened out...I'm still SO pissed at him for chickening out because during the whole game all he kept saying was "we coulda been there...we coulda been there.."

I know once the game is over, my dad is going to want to go SIT down at the nearest bar. And I'm cool with that. I'll be in town to have some fun!
