At SBC - my first time!

Actually, only my 2nd time at baseball...And that was minor league. This place is buzzing with energy and excitement. Like a stadium full of kids. Someone just slid into 3rd base and the place exploded in an uproar...Now someone else got outed and I've never heard so many boo's...but they changed ruling and the place rocked in victory! Obviously the Giants are the favorite here! I am fascinated by the scene: the rules, the play that is "such" a show, the crowd, the eating (when did I last see cotton candy? and see how much Dav loves his peanuts!)...This is fun!

Now we're home, so I'm uploading the videos. It's hard to caputure the crowd, but there's one video of everyone singing the Giant song (2nd video), one where I'm doubting they are even playing cuz I can't ever see the ball (3rd video), and then there's the last video where Dav told me the Giants had lost (I don't know much about baseball) but he was totally pulling my leg.

Um, apparently the above written post brought many laughs to many people. I typed it on my tiny phone, while trying to keep track of what was going on so I wouldn't miss my chance to jump up and cheer, and I really didn't know what I was talking about, did I? Writing eloquently wasn't my priority.

I had no idea about how 'off' my comments were until I read this snippet of conversation between Dav and his friends on the IRC:

<paul> haha..Kokochi "Now someone else got outed.."

<paul>: BJ Upton was recently called up from the Bulls, first 19 year old to hit a major league HR in awhile.

<dav>: paul, i thought the "singing the Giants song" was pretty funny (it was "take me out to the ballgame")

<dav>: and watching the bullpen warm up, apparently she thought that was actually part of the game

<Jesse>: none of that was intentionally humorous?

<dav>: i don't think so

<paul>: ah..heh, it wasn't a specific Giants song? like "Meet the Mets" ?

<dav>: nope

<Jesse>: and I'll suppose a game has never been watched in a bar, at home, anyway

<dav>: if we ever go to another teams game, at 7th inning she's gonna say "Hey, they're singing the Giants song! They must look up to the Giants!"

<paul>: alot of that extra stuff in ballgames is kinda funny..

And there's the part about being surprised the Giants were the stadium's favorite...

I started laughing at myself at how, um, "entertaining" I can be without even knowing. (How do you describe such a person anyway?) Now everyone at work is enjoying the post, so I can't really edit it, can I? People who know me know that this is me...
