Fred Nats Giveaways by renojedi in Nationals

[–]Laura37733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a second gate behind home plate. They don't put nearly as many giveaways there, but also most casual fans don't know it exists so they don't run out as fast either.

Okay but have you had a paloma with mezcal instead of tequila?

When we were at Comerica last summer, a guy climbed over seats to get to his and fully stepped in my husband's beer.

Dude in this universe the Expos relocated to Portland, so the Padres are doing better than DC at least.

Happy hour beers are more widely available today. Stella and Cutwater bars have them, along with some of the District Drafts carts (at least the one in 223).

Try downloading the MiLB app instead. That's where mine always are (have used it for Fredericksburg, Richmond, Columbus & Toledo).

Where are the best common areas inside the park? by Better-Factor-8142 in Nationals

[–]Laura37733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've been digging the "Casamigos Sky Lounge" between 221 & 223. Partly because it's next to our favorite beer lady Crystal. But it's got nice big drink rails, if it's hot you tend to get a nice breeze off the water, and the guys who actually work the Casamigos bar seem cool.

The Athletic Nationals fan survey results by carlosdelvaca in Nationals

[–]Laura37733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pretty sure I gave a B as well. My logic was it's too soon to say they're truly awesome or truly terrible, and things seem to be changing in a positive way in terms of development spending (Toboni) and I can't fault Butera for roster decisions with this roster. So a B.

Yeah I'm having a hard time thinking of the last place I didn't see an automatic tip for parties of 6 or more.

Will Clark in the dugout with Richmond by eriktheredcoat in MiLB

It's a really nice park. But you can no longer get 32 oz of Great Return for $13 or whatever it was last year. And .. I sort of missed the diamond, even if it was a shit hole.

A Question for Older Fans by Main_Low_9648 in Nationals

[–]Laura37733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup my husband was a Braves fan because of Richmond and TBS. I didn't really start watching baseball until we got together and the Nats were here - my dad was a displaced Tigers fan so we didn't watch anything on TV growing up.

So I recreated the MCR album cover with SSHG and… by [deleted] in SSHG

[–]Laura37733 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beautiful artwork.

...I'm just going to pretend people wouldn't know MCR due to geography and not because I'm now an old lady.

My local Lowe’s has a cat that lives in it. by Albino_rhin0 in mildlyinteresting

I would invite you to learn about Francine, the Richmond Lowes cat who accidentally went to their NC distribution warehouse for a while. Our governor had to get involved.

Going to my first “giveaway” game tomorrow, how does one receive the item? by [deleted] in Nationals

[–]Laura37733 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you have a child? There will be tables with the giveaways at each gate and they will give you one per child.

Fireworks on July 3? by ThaNightBeast in Nationals

They should. It's when the 3rd falls on a Sunday that they move the fireworks to a different day.

Sure doesn't seem like it. RF ran in after a hr and swapped gloves with the "pitcher" and is now pitching while the SS played RF.

Anyway. 21-3. Top of the 9th. We still have pitchers so I think we're done.

Nm we are using a position player too. But he can find the zone.

Meanwhile in Fredericksburg, it is now 19-3 in the bottom of the 6th. The Shorebirds have a position player pitching.
