Cubs Game

Lou got me tickets to a mets game and of course I was lucky enough to see them play the cubs! It was awesome! My seat was great and they won!! You can definitely tell that Shea Stadium is an older stadium and unlike most stadiums Shea Stadium doesn't really have a signature ballgame food that they are known for. I was a little disappointed in that but it was so worth going to see the cubs play since I didn't get to see them play the rockies this year. The stadium was packed since the mets are in the race for a playoff spot, but I discovered that mets fans are only supportive fans when they are winning. Most of the fans were booing their team by about the 5th inning. There was a guy sitting in front of me who was yelling at all the other fans while they were doing the wave. He was telling everyone to put their hands down because the mets didn't deserve it since they weren't playing well. It was hilarious!


I had to wear my hat to support my cubs! I was afraid of getting jumped or beat up on the subway with all the mets fans, but all I got was a few dirty looks so I survived the night!

Shea Stadium isn't the best looking stadium but it has been around a while and has some history with it.







They all seem so serious and they are winning!




Lou to the rescue going out to check on Pie, gotta love Lou Pinella!


So Derrek Lee is probably my favorite player. Dont ask me why but he is just awesome. Here is a pretty sweet fact about Lee that was flashed on the jumbotron during one of his at-bats.


Lee makes it look so easy!
This is Krissy, she is in my ward and was nice enough to come with me. She forgot a jacket so she used our game towels they handed out before the game to keep warm. She still froze the whole night.
