UPDATED: Arizona Fall League game, Peoria Javelinas @ Scottsdale Scorpions, 10/22?
Dear Snakepitters, would anybody else like to attend this AFL game? Jenna and I will be in Scottsdale that day (Friday, October 22nd) and were planning on hitting the game. We could possibly make it a Snakepit g2g? Unlike most Fall League games, it starts at 6:35PM, rather than 12:35PM, so people who have to work that day may still be good to go. Last year, we had a Snakepit AFL game get-together and it was a lot of fun, from heckling Buster Posey and Tuffy "The Cat" Gosewisch to Brandon "Nice Strikeout" Allen. Oh yeah, and I will be doing my famous Superfan Susan impression. (But not within earshot of her)
Anyone down?
UPDATE: We will be meeting out in front of the box office at 6PM Friday. I posted my # below in the comments.

Absolutely cannot
make a game at any point in the weekend. I could make a game on October 21st, though.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
Lame.
Can’t make the 21st. 12:35PM on a Thursday? I’m working.

But that doesn’t look very good.

Well
I guess that’s better than being told in front of my date to junior prom.

Sooo
does this mean you’re going to start hitting on me? Cos I’m kind of taken.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
that won't be a problem
I’m sure that mrssoco and I could work something out.

but no thanks. He’s too short for me, anyways. He’d have to wear like Alexander McQueen level of heels.

And
the couple others that have fallen in love with me.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
Sounds
like someone is getting defensive.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
That
you’re getting defensive and apparently are totes in love with me? Look, no means no.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
Why?
I’ve known about this for weeks.
"Expelliarmus!" said Eckstein, attempting to knock the bat out of Matt Kemp's hands, just before Kemp laced a single to center.
Dunno?
Because, as men, we’re supposed to plan something, apparently? Even though I know nothing of Phx?
Mr. Science Boy
as usual
he’s only relaying half of what I asked – not told – him to do, which was talk to you two about what you guys wanted to do on the 21st and make plans. I’ve never been to Phoenix, so I don’t know where we could go, and I don’t have a way of getting ahold of everyone involved, so it seemed pointless for me to plan things.

Ticket prices brah ?
also….1st come 1st served seating ?
If you'd have been a dog.....
They would of drowned you at birth.

AZFL is open seating. $6 for adults, $5 for seniors and children.

Cool and thanks.

Have to pass on this one
I’m working. :-( However, as a result of SnakePitFest, we will be getting a bunch of free tickets to the AFL championship game on Nov. 20th [approximate date] and if there’s enough interest in a posse for that…?

Don't know if I'll be able to make it to this
mrskishi works until 6:30, and that’s a week before show opens, so she probably can’t get out of work early.
"Expelliarmus!" said Eckstein, attempting to knock the bat out of Matt Kemp's hands, just before Kemp laced a single to center.
42nd Street
They open on the 29th.

Arizona Broadway Theater. It’s in Peoria, in the northwest valley.

I’ll be there if I can remember. I get to go for free, thanks DBacks.
Question: is it just me or does the overall quality of the league this year seem a little down? Maybe it was just the Strasburg/Ackley hype.
I'm feeling fiery, fiery, I tells ya! Who cares if I lose 10 in a row?

Mr. Science Boy
Anyway,
we’re still on for this. Not sure who’s actually coming, but I’m thinking we’ll meet out front of the box office around 6PM Friday.
If you can come, awesome. If you can’t, you suck. If you can come but will be late, that’s fine. Just lemme know.
Jenna and Niiko and Matt and Misty and Reynolds Rapper and I and NOT MARC NOR JIM and MAYBE Devin and Morgan will be there, sounds like?
Lotta you already have my #, (WOO NEW PHONE) but it’s 271-1410, area code 520, obviously.

But she won tickets to Colbie Callait’s concert at the AZ State Fair on Friday night so now our plans have changed, so we won’t be making it this time.

Also, apparently, I have, like, 2 tickets to that night’s Suns game to give away, so… yeah.

Im still going. Where's the best place to park ?
If you'd have been a dog.....
They would of drowned you at birth.
There will be parking garage somewhere close its free.

See you bros there bro.

If you're
coming off Indian School onto Drinkwater, then on the left is a big garage for the Scottsdale Library. You can use that one.
That was a rhetorical question. I don't really care what you say.
So....
How was it?
