My good buddy and myself, Diamondbacks fans as long as they have existed, happened to run into one hell of a deal at the local Circle K last week. It's particularly a good one if you happen to like 1. baseball (albeit awful as of late), and 2. beer (albeit mostly awful choices).

Anywho, as we were browsing the selection of libations to help aid in a night of fun, we came across products of the Budweiser family. And what was on that glass door that housed the frosty alcoholic water in a can, you ask? Well that would be a sticker that offers two free tickets to a Diamondbacks game of your choice with the purchase of an 18 pack of Budweiser product. Now, my aim is not to advertise for Bud (Bud Light can kiss my ass), but this is a hell of a deal. Particularly when you happen to be a person of college age. I know the boys are terrible and the front office might have trouble paying people to go to games, but I put a call in to the ticket office to make sure this was legit. And it was! Two tickets (sections 305-327) to ANY GAME YOU WANT. All you have to do is present the receipt at the ticket office and you're holding a pair of $15 seats.

Last Friday night my friend and I split said-18 pack of Budweiser at his house prior to the game (Again, Bud Light can burn in hell), hopped on the lightrail, and took in another gem by fellow Pepperdine baseball alum, and our only starter worth watching not named Max, Danny Haren. All told, I spent just under $9 for 9 beers, a ticket to the game, a fireworks show (I LOVE fireworks), and a safe ride to and from the game. $9 well spent I say.
