I have, thus far, experienced Opening Day from inside the parade route, outside the parade route, outside the city wondering why everyone else isn’t celebrating, and upon my couch. That left the inside the ballpark and inside downtown but not the ballpark boxes to check. One box is somewhat less expensive than the other.
The history minor in me has a particular horror of missing player introductions and great swaths of flags, so Josh The Pilot and I opted to watch festivities through the first inning at home, which meant yelling at the television when the flyover following the National Anthem went completely untelevised, then yelling at each other when he realized the flight path was taking the F16s over our house.
