SF Giants Recap

Hyperion Engineering had a "field trip" yesterday to the San Francisco Giants vs Arizona Diamondback baseball game.

Final score: 6 to 3, Giants lose

Tim's Recap (once again in list form)
- Rode up to San Francisco with Dana
- Stopped in San Carlos (I think) for Peet's Coffee. Dana supposedly is crazy for Peet's coffee. I had a hot chocolate and a chocolate cookie. Any guesses on what type of food I like???
- Oh yeah, Dana also got a vegan scone from Peet's
- Superb driving by Dana, no dings, no bumps, or bloodshed. Passenger side brake wasn't even touched.
- Parked for free in Dana's "secret" parking area. Willing to accept offers (cash) to dilvuge the secret.
- Made Dana worry about her secret parking spot due to its potential illegality, both location and length of time parked
- Made mental note of "plan b" travel plans in case Dana's car was towed away
- Scoped out food and beer, we decided to go with nachos and Guinness beer. Dana was shocked at the cost of the two beers ($16.50). Nachos were $7.50 I believe
- Picture taken by Hyperion coworker of Dana and I in our seats prior to the game starting. Will either place picture on site or delete depending on how silly it makes me look. If Dana looks sillier than me, picture will make its appearance on the site
- Probability of Dana looking sillier than me. < 1%
- A bunch of baseball was played: two home runs (one per team), infield fly rule called, a double steal (second and home plate), and a batter hit with the ball.
- No Barry Bonds, resting up for his offseason.
- Two foul balls in our general direction (third base side in the corner, lower deck)
- I have the answer to the question: Who brings an apple to a baseball game? Dana
- While Dana was being healthy, I ate a toll house chocolate cookie ice cream (cost $5)
- No pee troughs at AT&T Park (SBC Park)(Pacbell Park)
- Dana went into the women's bathroom at the end of the game via the exit, avoiding the line of women going thru the entrance. FYI: Dana is female (just in case you were wondering since the name Dana is gender neutral)
- The big Barry Bonds bobble head with the "do not touch" sign, almost got touched

FYI: Dana made a previous post on the now defunct Original Everett Family Blog.

A picture of the work in progress as well as two pictures of the room formerly called the "Dead Room". The "Dead Room" is officially dead and I could not be happier about it.

49'ers Football Game Recap

I got a call Saturday night from Danielle's husband, Adam, inviting me to go with him to the San Francisco 49'ers vs Philadelphia Eagles. I quickly accepted.

The Eagles won with the final score of 38-24.

Tim's Recap in a form of a list:
- Ate a subway sandwich (I think it was a club sandwich) and drank a Corona beer next to my car on the side of a street
- oh yeah... also ate some chips and salsa
- Once in our seats, Adam stated he hopes they don't have dog races for the half time show (that statement will come back to haunt us)
- Lots of Eagles fans in the stadium and they all seemed to be sitting around us
- First play of the game: ~50 yard flea flicker for the Eagles (hand off to the running back, toss back to the quarterback, and a pass to a wide open receiver)
- Adam and I both got a soda (diet for me, regular for him). Cost: $10.50 for two.
- Very energetic Eagles fans a few rows in front of us. Made me tired just watching them.
- Half time show: Latin traditional dancers. Adam was wishing for little dogs racing now instead of this. I personally believe anything involving dogs is a great half time show.
- 49'ers fan next to Adam was "jawing" with the energetic Eagles fan, his only line though was about the Eagles being weak (kinda odd since they were whomping on the 49'ers), a few different variations but after the first few I should have done what later a Eagles fan did... come up to him and yell "Shut up!!" (drew quite the applause from both 49'ers and Eagles fans)
- Sits were too high to get a view of the cheerleaders so I had to do with adding a picture to this posting
- Peeing in a trough, always reminds me about how special it is to be a male
