Mariners game!

David and I went to the Mariners/A's game tonight. I like the A's, David likes the Mariners, but neither of us really cares too much. The only real reason we were rooting for our teams at all was because we bet our pride on the outcome. Still, it was nice to be able to watch the A's play an away game and actually be able to root for them, because in Boston you put your life at risk if you cheer for anyone other than the Red Sox, though the drunken Red Sox mob doesn't really care if you root for the A's because they aren't seen as a threat. Plus, our seats, which were pretty nice, cost about as much as the crappiest seats at Fenway. In fact, I'm pretty sure I've paid the same price to stand up for 9 innings in Fenway. It was a good time: the lady who sang the national anthem had a really nice voice, the weather was a little chilly but nothing a sweater couldn't solve, and the A's won. Haha.
