Guillen'sGuy Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I just got back from ST. Great experience, I recommend it to everyone. I stayed in Tempe over the weekend and caught the Sox/Cubs and Sox/Brewers games (Sunday & Monday respectively). The Cubs game was packed (~12K) and the environment was great. The Brewers game on Monday was dead (~2K), which made for the best ST Story of All-time! BTW, the Brewers facility outside of Phoenix is top notch. I showed up in the 2nd inning to catch Buehrle's at-bat. He gave a valiant effort grounding out. The Sox fans gave him a rousing ovation (quite entertaining). I decided to join the rest of the fans behind the Sox dugout. During ST the coaches sit outside the dugout in chairs (See Tony's post/pictures), basically right in front of the Sox fans. I wasn't close enough, but I could see Oz talking to some fans and having a good time with them. Then the unthinkable, Ozzie bought the ENTIRE SECTION a round of BEERS! It was hilarious, everyone was throwing IDs at the beer man and he was throwing beers back, with no money being exchanged. That type of thing is what makes ST the best. I'll never forget that experience and for reasons like that this ST won't be my only ST trip. P.S. - I will post some pictures from the my stay in Tempe soon.
