Mississippi Mud










Looking from my seat at Padres Game

0
= Number of games I have watched on TV
10 = Number of games attended this summer
0 = Number of tickets I have paid for

For a non-baseball fan I am doing pretty good. Somehow all my friends seem to have access to great seats through their company. The seats are always right on the field which makes all the difference. Fan or no fan when you are that close to the action you can't help but have fun.

Just before I took the above picture my friend in the seat next to me caught a foul ball.

Trivia: Did you know that game balls are rubbed with Mississippi mud before each game. Mud is shipped out in tin cans to the ball parks and some guy sits and rubs them before games?
