Serendipity (or "Scoring a ballgame ticket")

Totally by chance, I stopped into The Tilted Kilt on 10th & K after buying a ticket for tomorrow's ballgame ($7 for a seat and ambling access all around the park - UK sports promoters take note) for a swift beer and ended up talking to a couple of local guys.  Well, now local anyway, one of them turned out to be an ex pro ball player for the Seattle Mariners.

And he had a few spare corporate tickets for tonight's game against Minnesota. 

Well, it would have been rude to refuse, right? :D

So, although they'll probably never read this - cheers Joe & Randy for the ticket, beer and pizza. I enjoyed my first ballgame, despite the home team (San Diego Padres) getting a bit of a hammering.

(Tomorrow I'll be taking the camera, so stay tuned for some baseball shots)
