Take us out to the ballgame – Prattling before the Pratfall

Eric and I are doing something we haven’t done in a long time. We’re going to Fenway Park to watch a Red Sox game. I think the last time we went the seats were about $75, but now they’re $125. We’ll be back there on August 5 with Carol to see Paul McCartney. Those seats are $100, but fees bring the total up to about $115. The field seats for the show — which don’t exist for a baseball game, of course — are $200.

Well, the Sox lost to the Orioles, 6-2, but mercifully it was a short game, especially because we got sunburned. I’d like to point out two photos that I took. First, in the background of this one is the Prudential Building, commonly called “The Pru,” making it a must for Prue Bury if she ever visits Boston…

… and the big Budweiser sign makes me want to point out that the King of Beers now belongs to a company in tiny Belgium. The present King of Belgians is Albert II.

Excellent catch, Lia!

“Can’t afford peanuts and Cracker Jack … ” 🙂 Did I tell you how jealous I was about Sir Paul? Oh, yeah, I already did. Chances are good that Stephen King will be in his box seat while you’re there as he is a rabid Red Sox fan.
