Deephaven Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Offered to take my boys to the Twins opener yesterday. They chose the auto show. Not at all due to the weather, but just the fact how boring baseball was. Figured I'd be a crappy parent to not offer them a baseball game experience at least once. Took them to the Globetrotters game a week ago, going to a Loons game tomorrow and a Wild game next week...but they said no to baseball. They both have been to the Saints stadium as we went to the championship game, but that might be more exciting than anything MLB has to offer as an experience.

Football, we sit in our seats and watch game. Baseball, maybe a couple innings. Rest of the time it is just a big party. I don’t think I have ever sat and watched 9 innings of baseball.

Our Power used to go off at least twice a month, they buried lots of the wires along many roads now and had tree service guys with telescopic boom saw blade trucks that reach up over 100 feet to cut branches and cut trees down, now our power only goes off maybe 6-10 times a year.
