But this (somewhat drunk) guy walking by said "Oh man you guys are just getting here? Take our seats; we're leaving." A small thing but it was nice just to plop down at that point.

End up walking to then down 155. Caught 6 bus before bridge. Took bus to Stadium. Gate 6 closed, told to go to 4. 4 closed, told to go to 2. 2 closed, told to go to lobby around corner. Walk almost entirety of YS around to our seats Left home at 6:40 In seats at 9:18 Game over 9:51 My wife got me pricey, very good seats for my birthday, which is pretty much the only time I've gone the last few years. On top of that this was her first trip to the "new" YS. $300 down the drain. Speaking of taking lumps, allow me to indulge myself for a minute here:
