AN Day V - The Tailgate - Athletics Nation

AN Day V - The Tailgate

by baseballgirl on May 12, 2008 10:58 AM PDT Comment 106 comments

Well, the masses have spoken, and who am I to go against the crowd. By an overwhelming margin of victory, it looks like AN Day V will be held on Saturday, July 12, 2008 against the Angels.

Details will follow, but consider this your 'save the date'. Unfortunately, other A's fans think this is a neat day to come to the ballpark too, so the BBQ plazas we've been using for the last few years are all full.

BUT since this is a night game (6:05 start), this leaves us a wide margin of time to pull together something truly unique (that is becoming scarce in Major League Baseball parks): the tailgate.

Having a tailgate before the game would allow AN to meet together before the game starts, and would also allow for a wide range of participants in this activity, including season ticket holders with previously purchased tickets. If you do not yet have a ticket for this game, I'm going to get them at a great group rate, so please buy with the group if you are at all able to (I'm aiming for about $20), but even if you don't sit with the group, you are welcome at the tailgate.

I will need help, though, so if you are an Oakland regular interested in this event, I'm looking at you. I need ideas on how to pull this off; I'm looking for grills, and whatever else we might need.

I think the easiest way to arrrange this to everyone's liking will be to have people bring their own tailgate food items (unless someone wants to pull off a Costco run) and if you are from out of town, we will find you an Oakland native who you can pay for food.

This is something new and different, and I'm interested in any and all feedback. I'm excited; it's certainly the best match-up we will see, and I think it will be great fun. If you want to help, please post in this thread, or email me at baseballgirl1976 at hotmail.

Thank you in advance-let's get this on the books!

But what about?

baseballgirl – you always have the fans interests at heart and I like the tailgate plan…however, will we have the opportunity to chat with key A’s management this year? And how would that happen?

And I would be happy to help with food items.

It always has been a very kid friendly even ...

McFood has brought his McNuggets of varying ages for years and they’ve always seemed to have had a good time.

The tailgate might change the dynamic, though—there will inevitably be more beer … that might have its consequences …

by mikev on May 12, 2008 11:41 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs

I think the tailgate is a great idea

Even though I probably can’t stay for the game because I have something else that evening, I will buy a ticket, stop by the tailgate and attend the panel if I can make the schedule work. NRAFs coming in from out of town should also note that Friday, July 11 is a fireworks night, and Coliseum fireworks are very much worth the effort of attending. We should think about having an informal AN tailgate/meetup for the Friday and Sunday games as well. I’m assuming that for the Saturday game we’ll be in the designated group tailgate area. I will be happy to help with logistics, food buying, name tag wrangling, information for visiting NRAFs, etc.

So, how does ticket buying work?

Do we have to buy stadium tickets for toddlers? I’ll probably be buying about 4-5 tickets. I may have to go to the fireworks game, too. I won’t get to experience the Wednesday game (no way we can get to more than a couple games), but the fireworks are great. And there will be a lot of people at the park.

Yes

As for kids, in theory you have to buy a ticket for anyone over 24 months old, as it is assumed the kid will be taking up a seat. You get a discount for 2-14-year-olds but only in Plaza Outfield. I have not seen anyone checking birth certificates at the gate so I’m guessing you can get away with a smallish 3-year-old as long as they aren’t at the stage where they feel compelled to tell random people “I’m this many!”

There's something to be said for subtlety

I can’t help the denseness of some people. But I am curious as to when it occurred to xbhaskarx thought I was legitimately using AN as a vessel to forge new friendships and that I was remotely interested in meeting any of you wonderful internets people. Also, there was nothing threatening about my post. I’m not sure why you’re getting your little boy panties in a bundle. Honestly, a part of me would like to put a face to PaulThomas but it has nothing to do with inflicting bodily harm on anyone, I’m still not sure why everyone thinks a fight is a brewing. I may act like a jerk online, and it’ll probably continue, but that doesn’t mean I’m not civil in the real world. So my advice to you is grow some thicker skin, work on your sense of humor and there might be some hope for Paul.

I recently had some visitors from Britain

stay at the Chancellor, just up the street from the St. Francis on Powell Street, and they liked it. It’s a very convenient location for BART and other transit, and it was a good price (i.e. horrendously expensive but not ridiculously so). San Francisco hotels tend to be clustered in a relatively limited area, which is not necessarily where the more interesting food and drink is located. But fortunately they’re a short cab or bus ride away.

Sounds like fun!

I’ll need a ticket, upwards of three. I can bring a grill too and man the bbq.
