“Huh? Isn’t this supposed to be baseball? Where is the bat?” I said aloud.

The American girl next to me looked over and raised her manicured eyebrows. I gingerly continued: “Is this the pre-entertainment for the baseball or something?”

She laughed in my face, nudged the friend next to her, who told the friend next to her. Once the laughter died down, they explained there was a baseball game on at the local stadium down the road, but that I was most definitely at the soccer match.

I quietly settled in, got myself some junk-food therapy and found it more entertaining watching the fans than the game itself. They yelled, they swore, they spat, they jumped and they blew their horns with ferocity. They abused the referee when their team was disciplined and cheered when the opposing players fell to the ground writhing in pain. They went insane when the U.S. took a shot and chanted in unity to distract Panama players when they were on the attack.

Me too.

Too bad she robbed herself of the experience of watching an Astros game.

The funny part is, she would have paid 50 bucks to see an Astros-Mariners game.

Funny thing is the All Whites might end up playing Panama in their qualifier.

it was more that she went to the wrong stadium b/c she assumed the crowds were headed to the baseball game.

she may not have even known there were multiple stadiums in Seattle.
