College World Series

Omaha is famous for two things (and two things only)


1. The Henry Doorly Zoo


and...

2. Home of NCAA men's College World Series


Since we have already been to the zoo, we thought we would hit up the CWS while it was in town. It has been crazy here since the series started about 10 days ago. There are a lot of empty property lots around our house and they have been turned into parking lots ranging from $5 to $20, depending on how close they are to the stadium. The sidewalks have been packed day and night with all sorts of people walking to and from the games. Saturday afternoon Stanford and Georgia were playing so we thought we would try and get tickets. We walked to the game (since the closest parking lot would be our own house) and Jayson was like a little kid in a candy store walking the streets with all the vendors selling all the team paraphernalia. We just scalped tickets and it is a law in Omaha that they can't resell tickets for more than the face value, so we got general admission tickets for cheap! We sat in the general admission seats for the first few innings and then moved to better seats. We were cheering for Stanford, but unfortunately they were not as good as Georgia. We had a great time baking in the sun and eating my favorite... Dippin' Dots.

We upgraded seats after the 4th inning




I would like to think that this is just a close picture and not a game of chubby bunny...
