My SIL and BIL brought my MIL and FIL to watch our girls play soccer this weekend. The girls each had a great game, and they started an hour apart, so we got to see most of both games.
While there they handed us our tickets for the upcoming Tigers game.
The total for the four tickets was $68, $17 per ticket. I had blogged about a handling fee before. That was per transaction, rather than per ticket, and it was $6. My SIL absorbed that for the group.
The game is this Friday, and the group has ballooned to 20. The seats are all in the same section, but not contiguous. Maybe people will play musical chairs with us, and allow at least some of us to sit together. The four seats for my family are not in a row, or in a square, but a "z", with two of us sitting beside each other, and the other two sitting one row behind, but offset by one seat.
Either way, it will be fun.
We'll be setting an in-park budget as well. We'd like to do some hot dog purchasing, or something like that without breaking the bank. I have a suspicion that some in the party will purchase quite a bit more than we will.
It could be a special game. Detroit pitcher Max Scherzer is listed as the probable starting pitcher, and he will be going for his 20th win.
The family pic will be the next day. That has set forth its own special family drama, but I won't get into it here.
We got our Tigers tickets

Sounds like a fun time! We go to the Kane County Cougar games, and the tickets are reasonable, parking isn't bad, and there are fun activities for the kids. Family pic drama ... been there, done that. Hope it goes well and there is an end product everyone likes.
