Tyler’s Grandpa and Nana told us they were going to baby sit for us last Tuesday and it didn’t sound like we had much of a choice in the matter. “Cool”, we thought, “let’s go see an A’s game.” At the Coliseum we went to the ticket window and stood in line to buy tickets. A guy from American Airlines walked up to us and said, “Hey, I have some extra complimentary tickets if you want them. They’re completely free; no strings attached. If I don’t give them away they’ll just go unused.” We look at where the seats were and they were only 18 rows back from the field! So we took the tickets, said our thanks and headed on in.

Of course the bad news is that the A’s lost but at least we didn’t have to pay to see them lose.
