Next best thing to free beer is free tickets.

Saturday, Bullpen Visitor Box, Aisle 34, Row B.

Look it up, not bad for free seats.

Not bad at all. Great foul ball territory, bring your glove. Just don't piss off Big City.

jim, those seats are badass.

Earlier this week, I had (free) tickets in one of the suites. It wasn't the owner's suite but it was right next to it. That was incredible.

It's a great seat, I've sat here 3-4 times. It's neat being that close to the field, but ... they aren't the best seats by a long shot that I have had. I just like sitting behind homeplate, and if I could exchange these seats to sit 20 rows up straight behind home plate I'd do it in a heartbeat. These are gimick seats - they added 3 rows in front of what used to be row 1 and this is what you pay for. Everyone that sits there is sitting there for free probably, no baseball fan in their right mind would pay anywhere near that kind of money for those seats.

The best part is when guys warmup, it's about 20 feet or so from where the catcher is positioned. You can hear the hiss and then the pop.

It's also supposed to one of the best weather days we have had. They are saying low 60's and sun, both of which or foreign concepts to us. I'm still going to bundle up, I'm very suspicious of that god damned lake.

Well, we lost but I can't complain. Sunny, light jacket weather, and Cardinal baseball. I'll take it .. especially when you have a view of the game like this:
