My Bronx Tale
7:45am Friday Morning: I receive a text asking if I wanted to go to the Yankees game
8:00am: How much I replied.
8:02am: 150$ for a 3 pack
8:03am: I respond hell yes and the plan progresses
After my day of work:
I showered and we were off. Ed(T) being our third in the pack and meeting us down there (Yankee Stadium) we proceed to head south from albany, to catch a train into the city. We scoop a 18 pack for the ride down. I drank 13 of them! We catch the train and were prepared for our 90 minute ride. We arrive in the boogie down around 630 and try to head to the local bars for another drink waiting for our companion. This being my first time to either Yankee Stadium, I was star stuck and a little tipsy. We meet up with Ed and we make our way toward the entrance. We were frisked and it seems that we all were violated.
We get to our 50$(well under face value)seat which just so happened to be the 2nd row behind the Yankee bullpen. Someone I grew up with walks up to me and say hello and all that crap and he asks me what I paid for the seats. I responded 50. He being shocked, he says I paid 180 3 weeks ago. I proceed to chuckle and say see ya later. Poor Torii Hunter... NOT! We ripped him the whole night. Jeter had the place rocking and such. Game was Awesome! Big Game 1 win and I am 1-0 in Yankee Stadium appearances. We finally split and head to our train where the real fun began.
A 90 minute ride back feeling like shit because of the booze on an empty stomach. About 30 minutes from our stop a group of hooligans began to gather around the bathroom. Their friend went into a bathroom that was out of order and got trapped for about 20 minutes. The train was stopped and out came the "Emergency Crowbar" WTF. As they break it open the conductor magically appeared. Who would of thought. The rest of the ride was full of bathroom and trap jokes. We got back home around 3. Best night of my life. It was something I could never forget! Seeing the man I grew up loving, and having a man crush on, Derek Jeter, I witnessed him! Woot
To wrap this up... My biggest discover of my life occurred that night. I found out that Torii rhymed with bitch. Who knew the English language would perplex me again!
As being the "party" that invited i would like a big Thank you. Was an awsome time. Only down fall would be the couple from England thats was a bore. Anyways GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!!!
