Nintendo DS and spare (single) bleacher ticket for Opening Night

As the title says, I have two "subjects" to this.
First the important one.

  1. I have a spare bleacher ticket as my 1st-3rd options all turned out negative. Looking for a taker, but if for some reason one of the drummers don't have a ticket, I'd like to give it to him/her. Otherwise, first-come-first-serve. I plan to leave for the Coliseum at about 3 pm, meaning I'd get there about 3:30pm (I live in Richmond).
  2. I have a Nintendo DS, and I'd like to try a "real world" test of it's Wi-Fi capabilities. Obviously, if it's raining, this would be scrapped as I don't want my DS to get wet and blow a fuse on me. Just a random shot in the dark to see if someone also has one and we can see if it'll function in a stadium full of people.
Not to mention that DS also functions as something to keep me entertained until they let people into the coliseum (as I won't have a friend with me). That, or I can wander around and follow my nose to one of the tailgates and see if people are kind enough to accept another A's fan.

Woo-Hooo!!! A's Fan Allie:
Is in Dire need of a Bleacher seat!!!

She usually brings our drums in when we cannot make it til game time.

I just got off the phone with her and she would be STOKED!!!

While taint is everywhere and baseball is certainly no different, it's important that it be treated with open attention-Devo

Deal!
Glad to be a help to the drummers (or their support).

What time will you guys be there?

Duke is already there!!!???!!!!
They just met Crowley, who was doing an interview for Channel 5.

Allie can't be there until 5:30. So, if you get there early just go up to Duke and introduce yourself. He's expecting you. He's in the A Lot by the McAfee sign in the first row by the driveway against the Coliseum.

They are breaking in the Bill King banners now and it looks like they are holding up well in the rain.

There is an outside shot that I will be there by 3:30 as well.

Cool, you can join in on the stampeded for seats in the bleachers and I'll have my son, Forrest, bring his DS.

Cheers

Sweet
That's two birds with one stone. Thanks!

Look for Duke in Lot A... got it. See ya there.

Many thanks.
Our official drum schlepper was very thrilled to get that additional birthday present from you.  If you ever need anything carried in before a game, you have her services.  It was very nice to meet you in person as well.

Glad to help
Nice to meet you in person too. Too bad the ending wasn't better.

Ah well, there's another 161 games to go.

And happy birthday to the b-day girl!
