Kinda hit on this on a other thread, but got no replies...

Thinking it would be cool if we got a Mariner Tilla together at Safeco Field.

Anyone interested?

Mf

Haven't been to a Mariner game in Decades...not really sure who we hate these day's, besides the Yankees.

It would be great if someone would step up and head this project if we can enough people on board.

Mf

What's the max amount seats that can be bought together?

Lots...but I think if you get 30 or more the discounts really start to kick in.

Just started doing some research...would be cool to shoot for 40 people.

But, having been a hamburger feed organizer on more than one occasion I know the pressures & stress...

Here's the ticket link.

Mf

Maybe the starting place would be some date suggestions?

I agree. That's why I posted the link up above that has the game schedule....

Kick this rock around, and come up with a plan.

Mf

May 16 Boston comes to town. 7:10 p.m.

http://mlb.mlb.com/schedule/index.jsp?c_id=sea&m=5&y=2009

I'll call Bob and see about getting this pinned for a couple weeks.....God I hope he answers....

And who ever wants in, post here and we'll make arrangements.

If any one's got input...

Mf

If you consider yourself a Ken Griffey Jr. fan, it just means you haven't yet met the guy in person.

Go ahead, have your 10 year old son ask him for an autograph, see what happens...

i have close to 50 griffey autographs from when i was 10....maybe he just didnt like you.

May 16 doesn't work....

Mf

if you guys want i have a connection that will help with tickets... gets a pretty nice discount for us...

I'm down to go to the game. Just set the date

What's your personnel preference afternoon or evening games?

DS3martie thanks for the input, sounds good to me.

Mf

Here's the fixed date...

Leave this open until March 22

Mf

Save one of those spinners, I'd like to hold it.....for a bit....

Mf

Really??? I had a buddy who managed a Big 5 store in Issaqua. Griffey's agent would call ahead so he would know to tell all the kids that he would arrive soon so he could autograph their new Nike's!

I met him once in line at a movie theater with his soon to be wife. Pretty cool dude from my experiance.

As with all celebraties it's all about time and place. Sometimes 10 year olds are just annoying and you want to be left alone!

For the record I'm a huge Griffey fan so I'm in!

Ooops-Just saw the date! April doesn't work for me. Maybe we can do another get together for a Wed afternoon game when it's warmer.

Mf

sounds good guys... I hope to be able to make it. I will look into tickets.

it's been 30 years since brewer's last mariner game. can we still bring our own beer inside?

they kinda frown on that....you have to buy their $9 bottles of bud light

how about a jug of Jack?

now yer talkin!!

This could be a fun one. I might be headed through Seattle that day on my way to Idaho for some Spring Turkey and Bear. May have to stop in for the game and head out on the Sunday.

Two more day's, to get in on the first....Unofficial.... Piscatorial Pursuits Ken Griffey Tilla.

Mf

any word yet on ticket prices?

No word yet. You in?

Maybe Chuck's got room in his camper for ya....

Mf

Would love to do the 18th, but work schedule won't allow

Verification PM's were just sent out to everyone who posted here on this thread.

On Wednesday 3-25-09, I'll count em up and make arrangements with DS3martie (fingers crossed). lol

Chuck you didn't get one because you posted...yes....today.

Bob, Bummer maybe next time.

If anyone else still wants in, post here, or send me a PM. This is still opened till 12:00 a.m. tonight.

Thanks everyone.

Mf

Is it to late? I want in!

You're in Bob.

Mf

ps Im drinking crown reserve tonight and am confused on the date for this excursion.

Does this still work for you? Cause your name just went out on the PM for tickets....

BTW Mf loves Crown Royal reserve!

Mf

oh ya thats the hit right there! I'm in like a dolphin. I'll have the flask of CR filled up for this one.


Chuck Carpool?

BCB faded.......................:)

Update time everyone.

It's now a waiting game until D3Smartie has time to work the #'s on ticket's....

BTW, I couldn't agree more with BCB's signature line. Knock on wood.

Mf

how much does everyone want to spend? in other words... how good do you want the seats to be?

Good ?

$40.00 range...like Chuck said "Let's SEE Jr. kick some ass" !

Irie, BCB ?

If no reply's by Sunday....order away.

Mf

I'll pay whatever! Marked on the calendar.

Stoked...................

Bringing my Griffey met, and get some....

Mf

Hell he may hit for the cycle this year at some point! Except the triple, I dont know how his legs are doing this year!

Bummer about Ichiro's bleeding ulcer.... DL

Get well.

Mf

5th inning, Griffey just sent one into the bleachers!!!

Mf

Im good for whatever.

Like I said in the PM:

Tell me when, where, and how much.

My boss hooked me up with a ticket and ride to the home opener!

Can't fault net working......

Need to hook up . I Don't make it over much, except for the occasional Skyline 4A beating....

Mf

T minus 6 day's....

Mf

What's the dilly yo??????????? Haven't heard a thing?????

Been pretty mum, but that's to be expected. D3Smartie's going to score some major seats fellas, that's a given...

Our patience will be well worth the wait.

Mf

It was a great opener, the line for garlic fries however was 2 innings long so I bagged that idea and moved on to a Porter special with the extra hot red pepper stuff.

How bout those M's! They look like a NL team but 1st place and M's have not had much in common for a few years. Have fun this weekend boys, wish I could be there w ya but other commitments got in the way....hey does anyone have a good hookup for tix for future games? My lil Bro is flying in from Phoenix to watch the Dbacks in mid June and I would like to round up some sweet box seats for at least one game...PM me if ya have a connection...cheers

Still haven't heard a word.

Damn glad I didn't send any money.

I guess I'll use the free day to go to the zoo or something.

Everyone, yes this is still a go.

We should be hearing from D3Smartie real soon.

Mf

everything is still on... I have the tickets at willcall and we are good to go. my fault for not communicating better. i have been off hunting turkeys

+1

You Da man Dave....

Mf

they are under my name as I didnt know everyone full name. what time do folks want to get there? i can meet everyone at the glove in left field or behind homeplate...
you all have my phone number in the PM i sent out awhile ago so we could just play it by ear and i can come out and meet you guys when ever you show up...

i saw on the news that there is major road construction around safeco. get there way early and find parking was the news warning.

or walk from the ferry to the game
i drove through there yesterday on the way home and the traffic is a mess. Made me miss the ferry, that and the train that came through at the same time.

I'll be with Chuck & family....however Chuck wants to handle meeting up with you is fine with me.

Mf

you guys going tomorrow? wish i could join you, but i cant. i will be listening on the radio. hope Griffy comes through with a homer for you guys!

Tomorrows weather

Partly cloudy
High 61
low 47

Brr bringing my parka.

Mf

I'm outta here.....

Better have a cold one waiting, I tend to get a little parched after a long drive, jam-min to the classics....

Mf

P.S. if we have time do you think we can visit the house that Alex Brink built????

Peace! Bro

brewer just recieved info that d3smarty, mf'er and chucks and family are seated at the game. just behind the 1st baseline just further than the dugout. for you tools who spazzed out on this.... you missed out. d3s scored great seats. look for the group wearing pink, purple and couger colors.

Sorry I missed the game there fellas, Had some work to do up in Index, plus some scoutin for this June opener. I guess we lost but I bet You all had a great time. Maybe I'll meet Magic some day to share a shot of Crown Reserve and an IPA with.

The 1st KGT is in the books, too bad the Mariners couldn't have pulled that one out. but Just being in the good company of D3Smartie & ChuckS and family was worth the trip over the mountains....win or not.

Thanks again Chuck for the hospitality you & your family showed me, a true testament that Dawg & Cougfan's can co-exist....

Thanks again Dave for hooking us up with those kick ass seat's....

Until the next Ken Griffey Tilla.....

Mf

Yep, Too bad you couldn't make it Bob, next time for sure.

BTW, I've got a pair of Binoculars & a couple cell phone's we can pour that sweat nectar into.....

Mf

Your in MF....

great to meet you MF and Chuck... as well as your family Chuck.
It was a good game for sure, although i am not sure i should go again, i went sunday as well and they lost again. I am currently on a 2 game losing streak. not good.

BCB- sorry you couldnt make it but thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it.

...wants to sacrifice a live chicken for some extra power....
