We went to the Yankees vs. Chicago White Sox game last night and it was bitter sweet as it was the last game we would attend at the old Yankee Stadium. It was weird walking through the corridors of the stadium knowing it would be demolished...there is so much history! But I must say, the new stadium will be so nice! Better food, better bathrooms, better corridors...I know that the Kingdome is not even in the same category as Yankee Stadium, but let me tell you how nice Safeco is in comparison!! The fans will love going to a new ballpark and new history will be made!
The evening started off in disappointment. Anthony really wanted to get to monument park and we arrived early so we could see it...well, I guess getting there at 5:30 wasn't early enough as the line was so long they had to close monument park. Then we had a nasty fan sitting right behind me and after about 45 minutes of me biting my tongue I had enough, turned around, and started arguing with this guy! Me! Yelling at a Yankee fan! I am pretty sure it was the pregnancy hormones, but I just couldn't let him get away with talking like he was about other people sitting around us, including Anthony and the others in our group of 4. This guy was so rude...My heart was beating out of my chest with anger so I switched seats with our friend Yocari to get me as far away from this guy as possible. I was really afraid of what I was going to do! Luckily I was with 3 other good sized men who had my back, but I really wanted to fight this battle myself for as long as I could. I soon let it go and asked him to do the same, which he didn't, and soon left his seats never to return!! I felt a slight sense of victory, I must say. Maybe it was also the fact that there was a young girl, probably 11 or 12, sitting right next to me listening to this guy. I just kept thinking, what if this was my child listening to this obnoxious guy?? I have always been protective of young children, but my maternal instinct has kicked into overdrive!! Welcome to the 3rd trimester I guess!!
