Philly Game

Now it was time for the big game. I could not believe but our tickets were in Hall of Fame! I never even knew what that was. Each ticket $75! Holy cow!
We took subway, I could not believe how empty it was in comparison with Moscow, like no one at all lived in Philly! We were lucky that we had only 30 second walk to the subway from hotel and then about 10 minutes to the stadium.

We wanted to have our picture taken in front of Citizen park but that was all the guy took picture of:

 It was very bright.
It was certainly very impressive! I did not know the reason this station was called Sports Complex was because there were three stadiums - for Flyers, Steelers and Phillies. 
 Place where they are broadcasting the game.
We quickly ate something, which I have to say, was ridiculously expensive. Two alcoholic drinks - $20, pizza $8, two ice cream $13. Ouch. But you would expect it at this game level.
Kyra lasted 2 innings. Then she was too bored and wanted out. I took her out to look for a souvenir. She found Ryan Howard shirt. I like Jimmy Rolling :) He seemed like a big goofball :) Brandon liked Chase Utley. 
Kyra and I stopped at the Museum. She, of course, was too bored with it but I like old stuff :) I enjoyed looking at it. 
 How, how old is it?
 Famous chair, as I see.
 Seriously? 1880-1890 ticket?
 1964
 Night shot.
At 9 innings the score was 6-6 so they went into 10th. It was getting VERY late, so we sat through half of 10th and took off but before we did, Brandon wanted to watch his favorite guy. Brandon was trying to "hit" as fast as Chase Utley did.
What I noticed right away - the level of service. It was impeccable. Every single person we got into contact with, it was something. I was very impressed and even wrote a note on their website praising great service.
Munchkins were exhausted!
