I state that that - four $60 tickets with food/beer incl. - is the true prize. I agree that a loyal fan and ballpark celebrity like Bleacher Bob deserves a bigger prize, but he didn't gripe. Be sure that I have signed up for the contest each park visit since and will have BB on my team when picked. <BR/><BR/>To answer your opinion query - the Homer's Landing has both!

So I'll have to have him weigh in on how much Bob was screwed. <BR/><BR/>I'm a Hot Dog man in the first inning, and a Nachos (with extra peppers) in the 6th. Which isn't to say that I always get both, or even one, but the decision on which item is strongly correlated with the inning.<BR/><BR/>If I had to choose one, it would have to be the Nachos. The greatest part about both of those items is that they make you feel so good the next day!!!Rollerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16904666850142252780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778556107185533687.post-26006436379931517282007-09-12T15:05:00.000-04:002007-09-12T15:05:00.000-04:00Well, that does seem ridiculous about Bleacher Bob...Well, that does seem ridiculous about Bleacher Bob and I think you guys should send an email to Bernie Miklasz or whoever the sports guy is and complain. Bleacher Bob is probably a sports page reader and at least he'll feel the solidarity.<BR/><BR/>I would always have voted for hot dogs over nachos, until one fateful baseball game, 7 1/2 months pregnant with Jack. Matt and I sat in the nosebleeds with Al and Erin. If memory serves, we were actually in the TOP row, but I could be conflating a few trips to the ballpark. <BR/><BR/>The game was entertaining enough, but I'd imagine those watching me waddle up and down to the bathroom ever 1.5 - 2 innings found that pretty amusing too. Will she wipe out or won't she?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, somehow we ended up sitting directly over a hot dog vendor, the ones with the grilled onions that waft up and up and up and make a pregnant woman feel as sick as she ever has. Since then I have moved my allegiance to the nacho side. Light on the jalapenos, though.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14562386466231328789noreply@blogger.com
