They do the seat-holding-back thing at AT&T Park too.

I’m not really a fan of it, especially when you get caught behind a long at-bat. Let me sit down and watch the game!

I'm with you on that

It’s annoying. Baseball is slow enough that you can get to your seat without ruining the game for others.

Sometimes they are super militant jerks about it.

Excellent report, Agent doctorK!

I really like that stadium, and your seats look like they were pretty amazing. That’s really cool about the Ichiro jersey. Thanks for sharing the story.

You're remarkable in a funny way. Or funny in a remarkable way.

Thanks - we had a great time

Now there's nothing left to say, so let's go drink beer.

Did your wife go to UPS then?

I had a buddy who went there. Beautiful campus. That part of Tacoma is nice, too. Like Oakland, Tacoma has a reputation that’s worse than it deserves.

Stomper and the Moose are two of the best mascots in baseball. It’s because they’re actually recognizable as animals. Animal caricatures, sure, but at least you know what they are, unlike all those other mascots that are just freaky indeterminate overgrown-muppet-like monsters.

Sweet is the lore which Nature brings; / Our meddling intellect
Mis-shapes the beauteous forms of things:— / We murder to dissect.
