My daughter's crazy luck at the Rockies game

[SteveSS]

I got a call from my daughter about 5:30 Thursday night. "Dad I'm going to the Rockies game and we're suppose to have really good seats." She was upset she didn't have time to fix her hair all she had time for was change her clothes and call a cab.

Then I got this.

Dad,
So I was invited to the game with my friend Courtney from work. We already had great seats but when we got there we were just in the right place at the right time. A very well dressed Rockies employee asked us if we wanted to be upgraded. Duhhhh!!!

We were moved to the infinity club seats RIGHT BEHIND HOME PLATE!! We had a waiter and didn't need to leave our seats at all! Courtney and I were hoping it would be a really long game hahaha. Everything food and drink wise was free! I told Courtney "OK we are definitely on tv so when they bat we will eat so we aren't on TV shoving food in our face" seemed like a great idea.

We were on tv EVERY TIME someone was batting. Obviously my plan didn't work. People were texting us telling us they saw us on TV. Apparently now we have been turned into a GIF. After the game was over we walked over to the Rockies dugout and I got a baseball from DJ!! And we got to high five German Marquez who that night set Rockies franchise record for strike outs! Rockies won 14-0 and moved into the first place in the NL west!!!!

She's the one with the blonder hair. It kind of makes me wonder if cute girls behind home plate makes for better TV.

That's awesome. I see that they are on an 8 game winning streak. I'm ready for the playoffs.
Go Yankees!!

Glad to hear she had a good time

 

[SteveSS]

She doesn't drink. She has nothing against it, just never got in the habit. Since her friends were having free shots she had three, then found out they were doubles. Good thing there is Uber.

Good memories for them. An awesome night in America.

The deeper I got into your story, the more it started reminding me of Forest Gump! Everything just kept perfectly falling into place. But that's great! I'm glad your daughter and her friend had a good time. They will always remember it. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome ! Good for her, something she'll always cherish.

What a cool story! Usually in order to get on TV during a baseball game, you have to be ditching work haha..

Or clothes!

Pay attention to the crowd shots between innings or quarters or periods or during timeouts...

9 times out of 10 the camera man has found an attractive female and she is roughly center frame.

(unless there is something more obvious, like full costume, family of 5 in the visiting teams gear, etc...)

Yeah just don't comment on them if you're the commentator....! Remember the Brent Musberger/Miss Alabama 'incident"!

I don't recall that....Was it funny?

I found it:


Not rude or sexist.....The public sure can be pussies about things, huh?

It was called 'creepy' by certain people. The girl in question said she didn't mind...

Rockies and Dodgers ended the regular season in a tie for first place in the NL West. 1-game playoff today. Winner will be NL West Champ and start the playoffs on Thursday; loser will get a Wild Card spot and play the other Wild Card team tomorrow in a 1-game winner-take-all for the last playoff spot.
I'm not going to openly say who I'm rooting for - but the color of the print in this post is a big-time clue!
