Don't get me wrong. I'm not a fan of Pelosi, or the Washington baseball team.
But I've got to wonder how they can run a professional baseball club when only 1 in every 200 seats is sold. That place is empty. Even at their worst, the Giants got people to come to Candlestick. I remember when I was a kid, Candlestick was one of those places where they sold you a beer without checking ID. A guy would walk around with beers on a tray, and he never cared how young you were. Just have $5 ready. My buddies and I would get tickets in the bleachers, and go crazy eating all of the park food and drinking beer. The Athletics were so bad, that they had to have $1 nights. Far from a sellout, but people came for the $1 hot dogs. It was never an empty stadium like that.
Of course, I may never again watch an A's game. They fired Glen Kuiper, so I may not watch anymore games on television. And they're moving to Las Vegas. I doubt that getting tickets for an A's game is what I'll be driving to Las Vegas for. Too many other things to do in Vegas. Barry Manilow. Penn & Teller. The Jets. Britney Spears. Hookers. Buffets. Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. Ultimate Fighting.
I doubt I will ever go to Vegas again. Been there twice, back when I had my F-350 dually and was taking U-Ship jobs. No reason to go there now. Couldn't possibly afford a Raider's ticket, and there is no need to since they have such excellent coverage on TV which I can watch from the comfort of my recliner with a glass of non-nine-dollar milk, or apple juice.
