Though I used to go to a lot of baseball games (the boy next door's mother was 
keeper of the tickets for the corporate box for Edgar Bronfman -- the liquor 
magnate -- and whenever no one signed up for Mets Tickets --  we'd have tickets 
for a box of six. He and I went regularly (even cutting school) and if we had 
tickets on a Saturday or Sunday -- invite some friends.

Bu my last game was long enough ago that it was the Washington Donators (First 
in War, First in Peace, Last in the American League) when I was at GW and there 
were free tickets for students just to have some folk in the stands at RFK 
Stadium.

Yes -- there were $4 in Voucher Tickets.

Game tickets were %9 each so the Electric City Trolley Museums portion was 
$11/each. I wish they'd schedule more night games, but the NIMBYs just south of 
the tunnel object vehemently to any more than a half dozen runs a day, which 
also precludes shoppers specials to the mall and Montage Ski resort.

Cheers,
Jim
