No, I am not listening to a rerun of the announcement of the 2000 Olympics host bid, I am gathering all the strength I can muster to say that Sydney Bluesox took out Game 1 of this series tonight winning 3-13.
I like to see it as Sydney getting out all their runs for the rest of the series...ready for us to get 'em tomorrow!!
So many highlights from start to finish! Wow!!! This could be a long post!!
I will try and be brief!

Bluesox do things well, with good communication from the front gate, throughout the park and displayed through the culture of their team.
I rang ahead and spoke to the assistant GM who allowed us to come in for BP and he even came and introduced himself to us tonight. I am falling in love (with a slight addiction) to away games! This is not good for my bank account but great for future road trips that will see the away series fan support go to a whole new level!! You approach games differently, you cheer differently, you lay it all on the line and pick up the broken pieces of your heart after a loss and ride on the wave of everyone else's tears when we win!

One of the huge excitements for this first game was that my family who live in Sydney were coming to this game. Another moment that I have been looking forward to. When Tim arrived he showed me a pic he had taken of a car that had caught a foul ball!
-The ballpark is quite beautiful! I love the seats we sat in on top of the dugout. Not really a fan of allocated seating but will work on that tomorrow! Great places to hang my signs which will be in full force tomorrow.
- Bluesox crew are super nice! I had made 10 friends before the game even started. Had great chats and a few good heckles just the way it should be!
-Ticket box team rock!!!
Volunteers are friendly and on for a good chat!
- One of the foods they serve is pizza. You go order it then it is cooked and delivered promptly to your seat!!! I know right!! How exciting!!!
Soooooo cool!!!

- Trying to work out if there is a bad seat in the house.
- Not sure if we were on the live stream at all but I know that tomorrow there will be heaps more opportunities with signs going up and cheering getting louder!!!
- A good selection of simple snack foods eg. sunny boys...yeah!!!
I had an iced chocolate which was great!!

Cool concept for a fundraiser! Syd's Lucky Dot...where you buy a dot from the board for $2 and at the end of the night a dot is picked out and you win cash if you bought that dot.
The game went way too fast, we got killed and there were some interesting plays where Huber cutout just shook his head in disbelief but all games tell a story. This is one where we will need to fight to stop the ship from sinking!!
My family have decided to all come back tomorrow, it is when we go all out with Hotdogs etc and hopefully get a win!
