i went to my first major league baseball game on thursday! and while i'm not really into sports, i am really into crowds and hype and yelling in unison and themed parties where everyone dresses a certain way and america. and somehow all of these things combined are kind of like a baseball game. we spent three hours in the parking lot beforehand playing games and eating food (a t-shirt seller man even played four square with us but he called it kingball. he then sold us the stupidest shirts in the world for half price ($5). the shirts say 'drink & go nuts' like 'dunk'n'donuts'. so ridiculous. i wore it all night.) we then went into the game, gave away the rest of our food (yelling 'free cake! free hot dogs!' is a great way to make friends), and watched the game. phillies won. yelling ensued. dancing after that. absolutely wonderful.
