Never has there been a more deserving case of jury nullification ;-)

Who are we kidding. This is Loyette's first baseball game. And first beer.

Are you sure you're not watching the game from St Louis??!!!???

Welcome back to town! You probably had an awesome view of the sunset, then...one of the best nights to watch a game all season. Just for the record, the best place to sit is off to your right a section below, just next to the waterfall. Best views, super quiet, and really close to concessions. :)

Those look like great seats and all, but what are those white dots on that brown thing in the distance?

I was at Coors Field early in April. I absolutely love that place -- and there's not a bad seat in the house, I swear. My friend and I were kind of where you appear to have gotten seats, and I was astounded at how close we were to the action. Despite a brief shower, a good time was had by all. (I think the Rockies won, too, and they scored 7 runs, which apparently allows you to get a free taco at Taco Bell from 4 to 6 the next day if you show your baseball ticket. Unfortunately, I was going to be sitting in the stands at the Pepsi Center at the time...)
