The Blonde Side: Take Me Out to the Ballgame!
By Amber Leigh hartman

For those who haven’t noticed, the new stadium for your Dallas Cowboys is located particularly close to a certain major league ballpark (The Ballpark in Arlington).

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to the Texas Rangers (a.k.a the baseball team that plays across from the Cowboys)! In the spring and summer months, the Rangers are constantly running amazing promotions and hosting fun events to bring people out to catch a baseball game. The team breaks its back to get people to the games, when they really deserve a sold out crowd based on talent alone.

The Rangers strive to promote a “team first” attitude on personal gain within the organization. The entire team is supportive of one another and the togetherness shows on and off the field. Right now the Rangers are tearing up the A.L. West and are tied for the best record in baseball with the New York Yankees (who pay their three starting outfielders a combined salary the equivalent of our entire roster).

The Yankees have no problem filling the seats. . .so why should we? This is TEXAS Y’ALL! I need some state pride to kick in! I think everyone should take a look at this amazing team and start supporting the Cowboys’ neighbors a little more this summer!

Want some tips on how to beat the heat and have an amazing time at a Rangers game? Here are some of my insider secrets on how to keep your night cheap and fun. . .so take me out to the ballgame!

■If you have kids (or eat a lot) spring for the all-you-can eat-seats! You will end up spending just as much at the concessions trying to eat moderately, and at least you can stuff your face!
■Wednesday nights are “Dollar Hot Dog Night” at the ballpark, so get a hot date. . .and a cheap dinner!
■Friday night fireworks are EXTRA romantic and pretty in the ballpark. Take your leading lady on a surprise date! (Sports + Romance = Home Run)
■Pack a lunch! Don’t want to spend money on ballpark food? BRING YOUR OWN! You can have a bag full of anything you would like to bring. . .just make sure it’s finger food! (NO METAL, ALUMINUM OR GLASS!)
■BRING DRINKS! You can bring a 12×12” collapsible cooler into the ballpark, so stock up on your favorite soda, sports drink and water! Just remember, no glass, aluminum or metal AND make sure the bottles are sealed. (They will not allow you to bring alcohol into the ballpark, but the content inside your sealed, acceptable bottle is your business!)
■Win tickets from a radio station or check the web for free ticket giveaways. Less popular series and weekday games are always a little less busy and the security is very nice about letting polite, friendly fans sit just a little closer than what they paid for!
■LEXUS owners get free valet! Or CAR POOL with another couple, then split the cost of valet! $30 so $15 each isn’t bad! (Don’t go there. . .I know what you pay for Cowboys parking!)
■Check the Rangers website for their Buy One/Get One free tickets! (or any other great promotions they are running!)
■Go to a game with a concert after. Make it a date night! You just paid less for the ticket to the game than you ever would at a concert, and you’re right next to the entertainment. You’re welcome.
I’LL SEE Y’ALL AT THE BALLPARK!

Baseball sucks. Rangers suck.

It's the National Naptime.

Football is the real thang. Anybody who disputes what ah wrote above is a communist.

Then you are only half-communist.



And deepest condolences re George Steinbrenner.

I love baseball. Especially now that the steroid era has been stamped out by testing - the return of strategic baseball and "small ball" is here and it's much more exciting to see teams use stolen bases, hit-and-runs, and the good old suicide squeeze to score runs than it is to watch Barry Bonds get up to the plate and hit a bunch of solo HRs.

That and, the best looking women go to baseball games. You should see the flora and fauna at Turner Field in the summer in Atlanta. WHEW.

way too many people are Cowboys and Yankees fans.

way too many people are Cowboys and Yankees fans.

And Lakers fans.

 

[cowboyeric8]

Go Rangers!

 

[theebs]

Go Rangers!

amen.

The cowboys actually campaigned for michael young to get that last spot on the al all star roster. I would love to see some synergy between the two teams.

Both clubs are pretty good right now and they could turn that area around the two stadiums into an awesome place.

They both just need to do some winning this year.

I would love to see the cowboys reach out to the texas artists the way the rangers do each week also. Every stadium has ac/dc....but a real local flavor could be assembled with all the texas artists and the rangers and cowboys if the rangers would get on board. All those crappy half time shows and crappy djs out on the plaza could be replaced with texas artists and people would love it...

Love the Yanks!!!

And Lakers fans.

Die, Lakers, Die.


***note: yes I realize I could multi-post. No way I'm polluting a Yankee post with the gum on the shoe of minor league basketball.

Imagine the havoc that having a game at both stadiums on the same day would cause. Granted the only way that would happen is if the rangers made the playoffs and they couldn't work around the schedule.

And I agree about the Texas artists, I love it.

I totally agree. Baseball was an attractive outing back in the days before TV when an afternoon away from the noisy factory, sitting in the hot sun, drinking beer and eating hotdogs, was a pleasant diversion.

I gave up on baseball after the 1994 strike and haven't had any interest in it since.

One question though, does baseball suck or does it blow?
