Go Doosan!

We probably picked the game of the year to go to; 3-2 in extra innings with an inside the park home run!  Thankfully, Lina, the girlfriend of a guy I work with bought the tickets.  We were supposed to get there a little early but it seemed like everyone was running a bit late.  Drew and Lina got there at the right time and got perfect seats - front row in the outfield.  Unfortunately, I am a Doosan Bears fan.  Drew and Lina are LG Twins fans.  So, the seats were on the LG side.  That didn't stop me, or Katrina, or another one of our co-workers, Parham, for cheering for the Bears.  Thankfully, the Bears pulled it off in the end and squeaked out an awesome win.  If you haven't been to a game - go.  They are a lot different and a lot more exciting than games in the states.

(Snacks before the game - squid jerky and adult beverages.  I didn't see anywhere to buy a hot dog.  However, you can take whatever food or drink you want into the games, not like in America.  Also, a tall adult beverage is 2,500 won in the stadium or about $2.25.  Remember, this is for a professional baseball game.  What's it cost in America - $10?)

 (I believe these are supposed to be Twins?!?!)

(More LG Twin's fans cheering - not sure why though, they lost...)

 
 (Oh year - Christmas in July so Santa was there.  He made a few things for our group...)


(Katrina got this nice bracelet and hair piece)

 
 (Spenser got a hat, sword, a belt, which can't be seen in this photo)
