Go Rockies!!

It's always exciting to be a sports fan in Denver. And lately I've shown my spirit in person. The other day (9/2/09) the hospital got a bunch of free tickets to the Rockies game. The seats were up in the top deck, but if you've ever been to Coors Field, you know that there isn't a bad seat in the house. With last minute notice, I called my friend Talena whose husband works some nights during the week, and mine was doing the same. Girls night at the ball park!



We didn't make it in time for the first pitch (and I miss the National Anthem more than I ever hear it), but we did get there before the hot dogs were out, and the beer was still cold. And I of course bought peanuts off the street vendors--how can you not?



The Rockies won, I learned that we acquired Jason Giambi (former Yankee) the night before, and he got MVP of the game. YAHOO!!

Bears 27 | Broncos 17

Here are the facts:

1. The Chicago Bears came to Denver for a pre-season game.


2. John is a Bears fan. Correction: John is a BIG Bears fan.

3. Abby is a Broncos fan. A loyal Broncos fan.

4. Abby is the best wife in the world for buying her hubby tickets to this game.

5. Denver had the lead at one point (er, three points).

6. John's team won (and I was a good sport.)


We had a blast and have a few great pictures to show for it. I can love my team and still be a good sport... maybe we'll even have a good season in spite of our loss on the home turf.
