thanks to gomessweetgomes for the ticket opportunity at the right price.

I got to the park around 3:45 to tailgate with friends, drank a ton of beer ate a lot and sauntered into my right field seat. I had no idea what was in store for me.

Right field was dominated by Rays fans of course, and when the home runs started pouring, it was so loud I could barely hear myself yell. When they played Seven Nation Army the trop turned into a nightclub. From innings 3-7 it was just insane. Then we settled in for the long haul and thats when Red Sox fan struck.

At least 4 Red Sox guys around me started fights and got tossed, and a few Rays fans as well. The Sox fans in front of me were kindly old ladies who acted just fine, but I wouldnt have been surprised if beer bottles started to get tossed around. Thank god for the plastic ones.

The game wore on into the wee hours of the morning. People started to head for the exists out of exhaustion, and I ran out of voice. You all know how it turned out. I wish the win would have come in a dramatic fashion like a double over the heads of the shallow outfielders or even a walk off homer. Funny enough one of the guys who ditched the game around 12:30 or so spent 3/4 of the game bitching about navi not bunting in game 1 to which i said "Go get doc brown and 1.21 jiggawatts and do something about it" and then he got mad because Joe pulled pitchers who were frankly not doing so well. he would have left kaz in and was afraid when Price started warming up the first, second, and third time. He said Joe "overmanaged" the game. Wonder what he would have said about pinch running Fernando Perez which ultimately led us to a win.

Anyways my opinion was that was the most exciting and epic game of baseball I have ever seen, it was an awesome night at the trop, and frankly that game should be on ESPN classic in the near future, because that has to  be one of the most insane postseason games ever.

TL;DR Had fun screw sox Sox Fans

I got a response from the Rays' attorney today about the idea of a booster club. Someone's already started it. The response is short, but it reads:

9-25

Christopher:

     There is a fan's booster type club being formed that we are working with called the clutch hitters. I have passed your letter along to the group's organizers. Once they have an application form prepared I will make sure one gets sent to you. Thanks for your support.

John Higgins (Esq - he is the registered agent for the rays)

So. Looks like whatever I thought of someone else already thought of but thats ok nothing is new in the world. However, once I get this application from them I will fill you all in on it. That is all

Christopher HAHAHA OH WOW

Sure it sounds high school or college-y, but a thought about how to do our part next season, by forming a booster club to benefit Rays baseball. Adults willing to put in time and a little money after work to promote the team, and organize trips to the stadium, and generally hype up the team to ensure the 09 season has asses in seats.

What do you think about doing such a thing? I'm sure that if fans took the initiative to organize on their own and reach some grassroots success, we could get some help from the team in organizing promotions and make it succeed. I just basically want to do everything humanly possible to make sure next year we help put this "Rays 'fans' dont show up" issue to bed.

What say you?
