The A's Won...I Think.
*Don't forget to enter my contest!!*Went to the A's game yesterday.
I forgot my camera!
I'll wait until the booing stops.
I know, how could I? We had fabulous seats. It was a gorgeous day in the bay area. My Boy got to run the bases after the game!!
To boot, we each got a Bobble-Head of a newly-inducted-to-the-Hall-of-Famer Dick Williams! Cool.
I'm still kicking myself.
Great game. We won, I think.
My Boy and I were distracted by these.
And then these...
Oh and these were delish!
Then this guy came by with this in a HELMET...
And these...
These came in a RAINBOW of colors!
PRETZELS HERE! (My Boy flicked off every salt grain) I like mine with mustard.
Then I did get into the game, and a little distracted by HIM...
Oh and wha?! Seventh inning stretch already? Okay. (((((((((Stretch, Sing Take Me Out to the Ball Game)))))))))
Okay. Right, we did win. Beat the Rangers 6-5. Holla!

That food would distract me too! It would distract my son aswell! Our sport games have chips and biltong and thats that!
July 28, 2008 at 4:11 AM
Yeah, I am all about the food at games. Congrats to you guys!
July 28, 2008 at 4:38 AM
Mmmm, churros. Sounds like a great time!
July 28, 2008 at 4:52 AM
Ok, I think this post was about baseball, but I am not sure since I spent the last three minutes drooling over all the food you ate. Had I known they serve all this goodness, I would have gone to more baseball games!
July 28, 2008 at 5:27 AM
Too funny! Did the food cost you more than the tickets? Just wondering....
July 28, 2008 at 5:36 AM
So fun! I haven't been to a good baseball game in awhile. I love the foods, smells and sounds! And those guys look so great in their tight little pants! Mmmm!
July 28, 2008 at 6:00 AM
Ugh!
That bites.
I hate when I forget my camera.
There is nothing more frustrating.
Maybe you can use your mad photoshopping skills and recreate the whole day! (LOL)
July 28, 2008 at 6:13 AM
I am so envious. Not so much about the ball game, baseball bores me silly. But I envy you for all of the junk food that you got to eat. Especially the cotton candy and the pretzel. Delicious!
Had I been at the game I would have missed everything up until the 7th inning stretch too.
July 28, 2008 at 6:13 AM
I love baseball- but there are a lot of distractions in Major league parks. Wait until he plays- you'll pay attention then- and you'll love it!
July 28, 2008 at 6:28 AM
my fav part of ball games are ARod/Jeter/beer....the trifecta of baseball games here on the East Coast!
July 28, 2008 at 6:47 AM
You beat US? Jerk! I love ya anyway. And its F'n 105 today and 10,000,000% humidity. I am SO coming to your neck of the woods this week. Anyway, GO RANGERS!!!
July 28, 2008 at 7:37 AM
I love the cinnamon sticks!!! MMMM!!! Sounds like a great day to me!
July 28, 2008 at 7:47 AM
Hubby and I used to go to minor league games all the time before kids. Now, it's like a vacation with the money we spend on all the goodies. But it is so much fun!
July 28, 2008 at 8:40 AM
You FORGOT the camera. I would have cried. I would have missed the first part of the game to go home and retrieve it ... in fact I've done that before. If I can't do that though there's always the not so trusty camera phone :)
July 28, 2008 at 9:55 AM
You forgot your camera Oh, man!!!
Ok, first of all the food, I am sitting here drooling over the food, but 2nd of all I can't believe the A's beat the Rangers....My man wasn't at his best today obviously (Josh Hamilton) but I guess it's ok..
Glad you all had a great time.
July 28, 2008 at 10:43 AM
my mouth is watering from all that yum-e food!
We are more of a football family over here!
July 28, 2008 at 11:46 AM
What, no pudding? Haven't you heard -- it's the newest treat to eat at Shea Stadium.
July 28, 2008 at 12:36 PM
I can't believe you forgot your camera!! I bet you would have had some good pics.
You forgot the part about leaving the game -$500. All that good stuff is so expensive. I love all the yummy goodness but dislike the jacked up prices. Pretzel with mustard, you are my kinda gal :)
July 28, 2008 at 12:50 PM
Doll, you didn't even need to share the score, with all that on the menu, you were winners regardless!
July 28, 2008 at 1:45 PM
Oh my lord, do you have an iron stomach or WHAT? Love the "weekly white wine" idea, I'll be looking forward to that. Just sent the hubby to get me a fresh bottle of Little Penguin a minute ago, so I'll be sippin' tonight!
I tagged you for a meme today, but if you've done it before (I'm too lazy to check!), just link to your post in the comments instead.
July 28, 2008 at 2:14 PM
Did y'all have belly aches going home? Ugh, that's too much of a good thing, lol!
Your bball attn span sounds about like mine...
July 28, 2008 at 2:21 PM
It just isn't a pro-game if you don't eat your way through it. Can I get an amen??
July 28, 2008 at 3:31 PM
Sounds like you had a great day with all the goodies you ate and your team winning!
I am not much of a sports fan myself, but hubby loves his sports!
July 28, 2008 at 3:34 PM
Boo. I hate the forgot the camera moments.
And cell phones...just don't cut it!
I want a snocone right NOW!
July 28, 2008 at 6:09 PM
Ummmmmm...........I would have been distracted too. :)
I'm late in thanking you for taking the time to stop by my blog when I was featured on SITS. I appreciate the time you took and look forward to visiting again!
July 28, 2008 at 6:28 PM
So let me get this straight...
You came home plus five pounds, a foam #1 finger, and a helmet with greasy popcorn remains.
Do I have it about right? :)
July 28, 2008 at 7:11 PM
Jeeeeez, remind me never to go to a ballgame with you because you must be one expensive chick to roll with!
And not 1 beer. So sad.

What! YOU forgot your camera?!?! LOL
You are my kind of gal. We went to a ball game here a few weeks ago and your menu looked very similar. Unfortunately, my stomach hated me the rest of the night!
July 28, 2008 at 7:50 PM
Oh, yummy! What a great time! can't wait to until mine get a little bit bigger for a Cubs game!
July 28, 2008 at 7:55 PM
Ah, a girl straight after my own heart! Put some big fluffy cotton candy in front of me and I'm a goner!
July 28, 2008 at 9:36 PM
Ewwwwww! Mustard!!!
July 29, 2008 at 12:42 AM
Looks like you really enjoy there. How you manage to get the photos? I tot you mention that you didn't bring your camera along.

HEY! Those are the same things I get at the ballgame too!!
I cannot boo the A's. Having lived in The Bay area and attended many Oakland A's games growing up, they hold fond memories. We went when Mark McGuire, Jose Canseco and Reggie Jackson all played at the same time.
Must say the snacks have improved considerably in the past 20 years.
July 29, 2008 at 7:43 AM
Of, fun! We are taking our kids to a game in a few weeks. Unlike movies, baseball is ALL ABOUT THE FOOD for me. The hot dogs especially!
July 29, 2008 at 7:48 AM
HHOOOORAY!!! GO A's. Look at all that yummy food. and that A$$!! lol holla!!
July 29, 2008 at 9:08 AM
Sounds like an all around awesome night!! I love baseball games... maybe someday we'll be stationed in a city with a real team! One can hope...
The food - YUM!

July 29, 2008 at 10:32 AM
Ok..........YUMMY! Now my fruit & egg burrito lunch feels inadequate.
July 29, 2008 at 3:02 PM
Omigosh. YUM!
July 29, 2008 at 7:13 PM
did your kids get sick from all that stuff?
July 29, 2008 at 8:21 PM
YUP. exactly what I love about sporting events....THE FOOD!!! 8)
July 30, 2008 at 10:17 PM
Oh what fun! You'll just have to save the memories on a brain cell somewhere.
