so on the drive home Wednesday, we pull alongside this truck with a middle-aged guy driving, as is common with trucks. The unusual though, was the two ratty Taco bell dogs he had IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT WITH HIM hanging out the window (it was like 35F and we were going 70+ on the highway, wtf????) and wearing Christmas clothes. One of the dogs had sunglasses on. And like little elf clothes or something? It was the weirdest damn thing. I was driving and kept telling DH to take a picture but he wouldn't! Probably because the driver looked more the truck nutz type than the Paris Hilton rat dog in a purse type. That was so weird.

We are posting our dreams in RTT now? Informative.
 
So I had something happen to me at the FB game last night. I purchased my ticket via ticketmaster like I've done in the past. About halfway into 2nd quarter a gentleman comes to the row I am in and to my seat claiming he has the entire row of seats (which was 7 seats - I was in seat 7). I show him my ticket which shows that is my seat.

But people in the row and row in front vouch that is his and I'm at the game all by myself so I'm not going to fight the mob so I was in 25 which used to be hillside then there is a concrete wall then east stands begin. There was room right over from my seat so I moved instead of making issues but from that point on my game enjoyment was ruined. I bought my seats a few weeks earlier so I paid full price not the $16 bucks that many paid.

I explained this all in a email to Jaime last night. I was angry but polite in my frustration. He replied back saying that he's was sorry for what I went through and he put onto the email a guy in the ticket office and seeing about hooking me up with a ticket to a mbb game.

Did he have actually tickets with him? If yours was scanned a second ticket is not supposed to be able to be scanned.

Mine scanned. I asked to see a ticket of his that had same numbers as me which he never did. I think maybe he had 1-6 but not 7. But I was all by myself and if I got my way all the people around weren't going to be happy with me so I gave in.

Most likely douches that told their friends to come by because those seats are always open. Then you showed up so they just claimed they were his seats. I understand. There were plenty of open spaces.

Tell him to kick rocks unless he proves he actually has the ticket then I might move to be nice if there was a seat right near by.

We had friends sit by us in open seats until someone showed up in those seats. When most people left in the late 3rd quarter into the 4th we had more room and they came back. A few minutes later we were all partying together like true Cyclones.

Had a great time at the game. Some friends from Milwaukee that had not been to a game in 3+ years game with us which was a blast. I have no idea where that defense suddenly came from but happy it did. Kudos to Snyder...his teams always show up to play.

No snow today. Church jumped the gun a bit and cancelled 2 out of 3 services so we just stayed home.

Back to work in the morning... one month until another 1.4 weeks off.

It seemed Heacock decided to finally bring pressure. Players were coming from all angles.

Husband saw logic and is spending the night in DSM tonight, so happy about that. His coworker/boss said they have 12" down in Ottumwa, so husband shouldn't try to get down there right now. Luckily, he had what he needed to record his reports and upload them for tomorrow morning.

The wind is HOWLING from the north. Gonna be cold tomorrow.

That stinks. Kinda a catch 22 -- have everyone around you hate you but "be right," or give up the seat you paid for. Sorry.

That stinks. I'm a couple sections over and there was space there. I'm guessing he was jerking you around since you were by yourself. BB game should be nice at least.

Boo hiss to DH not taking a picture!

I've bought a couple singles to MBB before down in the parquet and everyone else in the section is a season ticket holder and they mostly won't even speak to me. Got a weird arrogance vibe when I tried talking to them. Was not part of the little country club in their section apparently. :(
