The owner of the company Matt works for offered Matt Diamond Club tickets to the Astros game yesterday. We were scheduled to babysit for our babysitting co-op, but luckily we were able to trade with another couple. The owner rarely offers to give these seats away (row 7 right behind home plate), but this is the second time he's offered them to Matt! The first time Matt was offered these tickets was 8 months ago, and I had just barely been called into the Primary presidency and the tickets were the same night of my first presidency meeting. Because I would have had to cancel the day of, I passed on the tickets and Matt took a friend. After they came home and told me all the food they consumed and how awesome the seats were, I was very excited this time around.
We parked our mini-van among a Mercedes SLK 500, a BMW 750i, a McLaren, a Bugatti (several of the player's cars) right next to the stadium. Needless to say, we felt a little out of place. It was the first time ever that we had to go down stairs in order to get to our seats. The seats were actually cushioned and comfy instead of hard and uncomfortable. Because we were sitting right behind home plate, we knew we would be on T.V.! We kept calling family to watch the game so they could see us! All in all, it was the best free date we've ever had!
The price of the tickets! ($375 each)
The action
The food was incredible and of course free! Besides dinner, we filled up on ballgame snacks and all-you-can-eat desserts/ice cream.

Lucky ducks! So if Matt gets these again will he share with his less fortunate in laws??? I'm guessing not but I will definitely start kissing up to him!
