Okay, so it was not a sweep. LA did start the season at 2-0, dropped to 2-1 and then took it to 3-1 in yesterday's game. Although not erasing the sweep they suffered in the last series last year, there was one small victory that to my knowledge was overlooked by the major press on Saturday.
One trustworthy fan source (me) has it that the poor concession service may not be something to cry over. In front of me in line was an orange clad fan for the opposing team who tried to purchase additional beer. Lack of fashion sense aside, when he got carded he could only produce a dog-eared CDL. So the manager was asked to come over and inspect the card and, well, sorry to say it just didn't pass muster - no service. Now I have to say, just before this I remarked to my friend that we had spend nearly an inning and a half in line waiting to get beer and hot dogs and we'd noted our lack or progress against the other lines and how it was due to the guy serving our line. After this, I remarked what a fine citizen this was and how we were happy to be in his line to witness such fine civic virtue. [nodding to Blazing Saddles] I just wish my son had been there to witness this.
Anyway, to make a long story short. When it got to be my turn in line I prefaced the order by expressing my pleasure at seeing that sort of care taken and feeling it my duty to reward such behavior I gave the guy a nice cash advance. And I should say, he was very quick about filling it.
I've become a loyal patron of the slowest line in the row 30 field level.
