World Series Experience

As many of my readers may know I went to game 2 of the World Series last night, and despite the fact that I am dead tired it was an amazing experience.
Me, my brother, and my dad took a Mega Bus to New York and midway through we had to make a stop on the turnpike because get this, the door would not close all the way yet the bus was still driveable. After sitting in traffic for the last 30 minutes of the trip we were dropped off in a different spot then we were expecting luckily one of the guys we met during the break helped us get on the right subway line to get the stadium we got there around 6:45-7. Then my dad and my older brother decided to go to a bar to get something to drink and since I am under the age of 21, I was not allowed in so I had to wait outside IN NEW YORK CITY BY MYSELF. After they finished drinking a few beers and buying something we got into the stadium and found our seats, in the 2nd level left field bleachers. Personally I was not that impressed with the stadium and think Camden Yards, Jacobs Field, Bank One BallPark, Fenway, and Nationals Park are all better.
Before the game Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performed empire state of mind, it was good but clear that they were lipsynching. Also John Legend sung the national anthem and Derek Jeter was given the Roberto Clemente Award for off the field man of the year, it should have gone to Pujols for a 2nd straight year.
Then the game got started and I was sorrounded by Yankee fans with a few Phillies fans mixed in. Yankee fans really annoy me they complain about everything when Burnett through a ball that ended up near the opposite batters box they booed thinking it was a strike. Also they refuse to give an opponent credit, for example when talking about Game 1 they said Utley's two homers were gifts by CC and Cliff Lee's historically great performance was due to the Yankees not hitting well and a bad ump. Furthermore they need to be more original in their taunts I heard so many cheese steak references when insulting Philly fans and heard tons of "Who's Your Daddy Chants" for Pedro, the opposing pitcher. Ironically Pedro made that statement in September 2004 and less then a month later pitched Game 5 in the Red Sox's historic comeback from 3-0 down to beat the Yankees. On top of all this I heard some Eagles suck chants and the Eagles were not even playing and also made it further then the Giants did last year. I am not saying that all Yankees fans are bad but a few bad apples spoil the bunch.
As for the actual game it was good but dragged on in the beginning but picked up towards the middle with the two Yankee homers. In my opinion there were two key points in the game one was Manuel letting Pedro come back out for the 7th when he looked done in the 6th and the double play in the top of the 8th when Utley should have been called safe thus making it 1st and 3rd for Howard in a two run game instead of him coming up to leadoff the 9th and having no shot of tying the game.
After the game we tried to find some more souveniers but could not get any good deals so we headed for the subway. While waiting in line we met someone who knew one of my brother's best friends and a close family friend (basically my 3rd brother) through college at Delaware she helped us get back to the right place and find a place to eat and kill time. Then we headed back home after stopping in Philly to drop other people off, I got back to Towson around 6. All in all it was an amazing experience and I have to thank my dad, my brother, and all the nice people we met for making it so. My goals now are to see a final four, World Cup, NBA Finals, Stanley Cup, and Super Bowl as well as a World Series game where either the Orioles make it or my favorite team, the Cardinals make it. I am sticking with my prediction of Philly in 7 but the MVP will be Lee.
