Baseball Observations

Over the weekend I went to the Brewers' game on Saturday evening and sunday afternoon, and observed a lot about the human animal those days.
  • Its not too difficult to read your ticket and sit in the correct seat.
  • If you are in the wrong seat and someone tells you this, get the hint and move.
  • People from Illinois do not understand the concept of turning lanes and merging.
  • Don't bring a two month old baby to a baseball game.
  • Ned Yost makes some the most bizarre decisions I have ever seen, yet every so often one works and idiot baseball analysts call him a genius.
  • If drunk enough you will drink a warm beer after the game that was sitting in the trunk all game.
  • Gambling on anything is fun.
  • Don't honk while in bumper-to-bumper traffic trying to get out after the game.
  • When leaving the parking lot, it is okay to let someone in in front of you.
  • Its okay to sit throughout the game and watch it, you don't have to be constantly walking around the ballpark.
  • Remember that some families go to these games and there are children around, so watch your language and try not to act like a complete idiot.

I'm going to the baseball game tonight with a group of 4th grade students, we'll see how my observation of the ballgame changes.

How "wahrm" were the beers? Were they lukewahrm or just wahrm or warm or what?

They were quite delicious if you ask me. In fact, the "civilized" drink them at room temp either way.
