Don't know how it was for other sections, but in section 223, the seats went 1 to 9. A few people came by with seat 10 in that section. It didn't exist.

Wow.. what did they do? Those sections looked tiny too.. Much smaller than the other sections.

They sold more than one of a seat that didn't exist?

seat 10 of different rows, what they did is got chairs for them to sit in the gap between the 200s and 100s.....but i'm sure they've sold those tickets to other games this season to other people. So if you have tickets in sec. 223, and you have seat 10, look out.

This thread makes me

Oh well, at least they get in...

They'll be able to find a seat for all the other games. It won't be 100% full again until the regional.

I was sick of that helicopter, too. It hung around forever and it was loud as shite.

But I thought was a mistake was not having the 5 national championships displayed anywhere. At least if it was displayed i didn't see it.

There were the 5 flags out in center field. But I thought the flag poles were too short. I thought the foul poles were too short also. Did they want to save a few bucks?

The banners/flags/other stuff will come....that stuff not being there is part of "the stadium not being finished on time". I am glad they focused on putting us places to eat and piss...

Those are temporary. The taller ones will be in later.

Well besides the flags. I mean we all know they are there but I'd like to see it displayed somewhere else. Maybe on the wall below the pressbox windows. Something def. needs to go there.

My ticket said Gate 3 (Left Field Line). I was in Section 201 (Right Field Line), right behind Gate 1.

Also noticed when they put a players picture on the board as he came up to bat, it said "Infielder" or "Outfielder". Also had "Catcher" up for Ochinko. How hard is it to type in the actual position?

Just a few kinks, although those things should be correct. It's the first game at a new Park, not the first game EVER.
