Take Me Out to the Ball Game

My insurance agent offered me 2 really good tickets to a baseball game.  Let it be said, that Ora likes baseball in the abstract and roots for the home team, but frankly thinks baseball is rather boring.

But I took the tickets thinking that I would give Rosie a treat and take her to the game since she is a baseball fan.

But alas, your youth group had picked the same day to get tickets (in the bleachers) for the kids and she ALREADY WAS GOING TO THE GAME!!!

So I got a friend to come with me.

Before we went (all together), Rosie exhorted me that if I caught a foul ball then it would become HER property.

Ha Ha Ha.  What are the chances of ME catching a foul ball.  I wasn't even going to try.

But in the middle of the game, Youk hit a ball just into my area.  It was high and my friend and I were just standing there thinking that it was going to hit us in the head! 

The guy next to me took off his hat to use as a mitt.  The guy in front of me tried to catch it with his bare hands. Turns out that he touched the ball but then it disappeared.

Ouch!  Something hit my leg.

So I looked down and started screaming!  The foul ball had landed in my PURSE!!!

I immediately called up Rosie to tell her the news and SHE started screaming too!

And from that point in the game, it was very interesting.  But boy does Rosie wish that she had been sitting with me.
