How do all these people who look like they’re unemployed afford to visit Omaha hot a week? Job, gas money, hotel, food, beer, game tickets. Guess that’s why the average person has a few thousand in credit card debt

This. Theyll be working shift work until they die, but they got to go to the CWS one year and rent a sick 2 BR condo on the Orange Beach Bay every summer.

Went in 2004.

We drove up, split a hotel room between four people. Tickets were $10 a piece for general admission.

Spent money on food and beer. All in for less than $500 a person for a five day stay.

Some will, but it’s not unheard of for redneck looking people to be wealthy. Or at least have enough to afford a moderately priced baseball game.

Nah, you can do it for cheap. Went up last year with a buddy for champ series. Drove, slept in vehicle on air mattress, showered at the YMCA. GA tickets are $15 and we brought our own beer. We spent less than $1k total. Most people arent doing it that way, but it doesnt have to be expensive.

I thought this said "CVS Visit".

I was ready to bust out some dank "Long arse receipts" memes.
