I’m gettin’
married!!
That means … Bachelor party!! And
I’ve decided to invite the entire StartupNation community to join me!!
It will
come as no surprise to y’all that my choice for a bachelor party is a baseball
game. So here’s the scoop …
When: this
coming Friday night July 21
What: Detroit Tigers game at Comerica Park
Where
(specifically): Section 338 in the Left Field Upper Deck
Details:
Yes, it’s true. The entire stadium will be guys only. No chicks allowed! (OK,
just our section will be guys only. OK,
just our row … )
Scoop:
We’ll enjoy a Tigers game & then I’ll walk across some street or 2 to hang
at a local watering hole for a bit.
Are you
with me??

The rest of
this post is just details:
It turns
out that the Tigers are in a pennant race so tickets are not as plentiful as in
years past. Here’s the scoop: I just bought myself a $12 single ticket in the Upper
Level Leftfield. It happens to be Section 338 Row 7 Seat 11, but that detail is
not important. Here’s the plan …
Rather than
try to figure out who is going to the game & how many tickets we need,
we’re treating this like we would if we were having the bachelor party at a bar
or someone’s summer house at the shore or at the corner of 9th &
Passyunk in South Philly – just show up if you wanna come! Buy your own ticket
& let’s all gather together. Grab a ticket somewhere near section 338, or
heck, buy yourself a fancy ticket behind home plate & make the journey up
to the left field upper deck if you like … & then look for me! You can also
call me on 248.430.1008 - my office line that`ll be forwarded to my cell. We’ll find a section of seats where no-one
else is sitting & hang together.
Please know
that this is NOT your traditional bachelor party. I will enjoy the game and
those who join me, but drinking & baseball don’t mix, so the groom-to-be
will be happy to enjoy a beer or so after the game at a local watering hole, but
not during the game. Anyway, the beers at the stadium are EXTREMELY expensive!
Feel free to have 1 or 2 yourself though.
To buy a
ticket: Here’s what I did …
www.detroittigers.com & I found my
way from there: you can try this link:
- just make sure it brings up the Tigers vs Oakland A’s July 21, and select a ticket
from the Upper Reserved ($12) Upper Level Leftfield. It ought to give you a
seat somewhere in sections 338 – 344. Just buy one & we’ll find each other.
Note that this $12 ticket ended up costing me $22.35 after all the funky charges.
I highly recommend selecting the TicketFast: NOW delivery option for a $2.50
charge. They send you an email with a pdf file of the ticket that you can print
out, just like an airline ticket – pretty cool.
The game
starts at 7:05pm. I’m really looking forward to playing my first game of
“Mounds” – you’ll have to ask Chuck Fuller about how that works.
See you at
the ballpark!!
