I'm not much of a baseball fan. The only time I really got into the game was when an old man got knocked down (the infamous game when Pedro Martinez knocked Don Zimmer to the ground) and that's just because I always love a good old-fashioned rivalry.
So call me LUCKLY, I guess!! Yesterday we went to my first Yankee's game ever, and of course, 10 minutes after we sit down, A-rod hits his 500th homer. I was with die-hard Yankee's fans (Dave, Evanisko, Amy, and the other 54,000 people in the stadium) so of course, the whole place erupted in thunderous, earth-shattering applause. Even though I don't know the significance of being the youngest person to hit 500 homers (is it really that hard? I think I could do it, maybe...) it was pretty cool being there. Either way, my first Yankee's game was a memorable one indeed. I didn't even read the US Weekly I bought with me in case I got bored.After the game, we went to Dinosaur's BBQ in Harlem. Gorging on margaritas, ribs, brisket, and pulled pork in 95 degree weather. In other words, an awesome Saturday!!
