Kevin & Chet's Excellent Adventure

A couple of months ago, Kevin Carne (ConVal's intrepid IT guy and resident raconteur) and I were asked if we would like to see a Red Sox game from the PC Connection suite. Kevin responded to the email in about 4 seconds; it took me about 2 seconds longer. We had our choice of games, but the final game of the season against the dreaded Yankees....What's not to like about that?

As it turned out, the Yankees didn't make it into the playoffs (too bad!). And the game was meaningless to the Sox' standing. Rainy day. Several delays in getting started--they kept taking off and putting on the tarp. And the Red Sox lost in a pretty lackluster performance. Still, though, watching any game from one of the suites is pretty good duty!

An added bonus was that we got to see the ceremony retiring Johnny Pesky's number 6. One of the good guys.

Lots of good beer and wine, pizza, hot dogs, snacks--even Caesar salad and Legal's chowdah.


All in all, an excellent adventure!
