San Francisco Giants
This evening, Matt Filios and I headed down the street to Giants Stadium to watch the Giants play the Braves. The park was very cool, the Guinness was good - and the Giants won in the bottom of the ninth. It was an awesome game and our 20th row seats behind home plate were pretty nice too.
Giants Stadium?
Since when do the San Francisco Giants play in New Jersey? ;)
(In my Homer Simpson voice) Mmmmmmm, Guinness.

After you mention the "Pac Bell" name, it's all coming back to me. The stadium is now called <em>SBC</em> Stadium - I heard a father and son talking about how they liked the Pac Bell name better than "SBC".

I too got to see Willie Mays (and Willie McCovey) play at Candlestick when I was a kid. We were literally (and I literally mean "literally") in the last row. Not quite as good as your seats, but we were pretty much behind home plate (it was just a little white dot). I don't remember a thing about the game, except that we were really far away from the field. Unfortunately, being 9 at the time, I didn't get to drink any beer, let alone Guinness.
If I'm not mistaken, that's the only real major league baseball game I've ever been to (though, now living in Florida, I've been to quite a few spring training games).
