Ok, if you've ever seen a picture of Milwaukee's Miller Park, you know that in left field there is a Friday's Sports Grill, and so today, me and two friends went to a game with someone's parents tickets. So we're sitting there really close to the field, and right next to the Brewers bullpen.

In between innings the players warm up by playing catch with each other, and then 70% of the time throw the ball to the ballgirl on the side of the field. 30% of the time though the players throw the ball into the crowd.

So Lenny Harris gets done warming up, and sees us at the outdoor section of the Restaurant calling for the ball, and he throws it up to us, and I snag it!! It was totally sweet! First ball I've ever caught, and here's the freakish part. Yesterday I found my baseball glove in my trunk, I hadn't seen it for months, and so I'm on my way out of the house, and I take it along. Most kids take gloves, but as you get older it gets stupid. Anyways I take it, and I totally catch this ball that without the glove my friend would have caught, or probably dropped with his barehand.

It was freaking awesome! I gotta play baseball with this thing tomorrow.

Nimreitz: Even though I'm not a huge baseball fan that would be kick-***.

Except when you catch a ball after arriving in the 5th inning.

I haven't been to one in about four years. If they would just play somewhere else besides the damn Metrodome. I would probably love it.

Yeah It's true the Metrodome's totally gay. I especially hate it when the Packers are playing in there and you hear that damn horn every 2 seconds.

You know, I just realized I have only seen two professional games of any sport outside. Wow.

One was a minor league game in Buffalo, and another soccer game in Sweden. Dude, that sucks. :(

That shows the way professional sports are going these days. My best memories are of going to see my Aussie Rules side at their old ground called Waverley. Its unofficial nickname was Arctic Park. It was stuck right in a rain belt in the SE of Melbourne. I used to love going there regardless of the weather, the freezing cold meant nothing if your team was doing well. Sanitized, Homogenized, Americanised sport is thrown down Australian throats these days. I hate it.

Yea the Metrodome is pretty bad. Have you ever been to Vet Stadium in philadelphia. That stadium has been voted the worst by NFL players.
