Spidey has been owed a baseball game with BigGuy for over a year now. Last year was supposed to be his first Cards game with BigGuy alone in the new stadium. Only, we did that moving thing and it didn't happen. The summer just got too crazy with settling and such. So this spring they were going to attend a game at the local college. Only, it never happened either. So finally.............
They got to a Chiefs game!! So exciting that Spidey talked about it for an entire week. "How many more days?", "Is today the day I am going to the game?", "I can't wait to go to the game!"
Spidey has his bestest friend, CH, to thank for the tickets. Apparently, much like SuperStar, CH sold a great deal of whatever his baseball league was selling and he earned himself two extra tickets to the game. Way to go CH!! And Spidey and BigGuy were the guests invited. Spidey was so excited about the whole thing that his fondness for CH had him contemplating becoming a Cubs fan. See BigGuy and CH's parents have an on going rivalry between their teams - the H's are Cubs fans, and CH has inherited his parents fondness for this diabolical team. BigGuy will phone the H's house when he knows they are watching a game and when he knows the Cubs are doing poorly just to make certain his name shows up on their tv screen (apparently dish satellite has your phone call id stuff show up on your tv). Needless to say, Spidey's consideration to switch teams had hurt BigGuys heart a bit - I think Spidey is currently on the fence.
Fortunately for this evening event - the Chiefs are not the Cubs or the Cards (although they are a farm team for the Cubs and have a coach who is a former Cubs player). The playing field was considered neutral and everyone got to love the team together.
And as you can see - neither BigGuy nor SH seem to be any worse the wear in the friendship category. They are able to sit right next to each other and enjoy one anothers company - although, if I know BigGuy he probably accidentally poked SH a few times during the evening - accidentally of course!
Ask me about the baseball Spidey is holding - it has its own story!
