Letter to Peter Magowan...

You ask what we, your faithful season ticket holders, the one we thing we might do to improve our experience at AT&T Ball Park. One thing? Not possible. I am not talking about the team, I wouldn't presume to think I can offer good advice concerning baseball. Here's my list of proposed improvements:

1.) Keeping the aisles clear of people, the ushers should be far more helpful in getting these people seated so the rest of us can watch the game!
2.) Stressing the importance of not interfering with a ball in play. Perhaps it should be explained why they are ruining the game. Punishment might include publc ridicule on the jumbotron or flogging. Perhaps Lou Seal could beat these "fans" as entertainment for the kids?
3.) Ranelle needs to town her voice down- we don't need her YELLING to get excited!
4.) Way too many vendors clogging the aisles- with the same items. And the vendors are kinda sad- no hustle; you're not going to see them carrying boxes of food and beverages on their heads. No, they're moseying down the aisles, some wearing back support belts to carry licorice ropes and Cracker Jacks!
5.) Ball Dudes. Let's patronize the elderly as they trip, fall, boggle, and just plain embarrass themselves. And when they finally get to the baseball, why does some snot-nosed kid ALWAYS get the ball?

To sum up, some of us are there to see baseball, not to run up before they stop selling beer, wave at friends across the park while we blather on our cell phones, constantly get up for MORE beer, and stand in the aisles trying to figure out where we're sitting, oblivious to the fact that we are BLOCKING THE GAME! No matter how they are playing, WE ARE THERE FOR THE GIANTS!
