The Relocation Blues
I have been eagerly anticipating this day for almost a week. It is one of the few bright spots of the off-season. I’m talking of course about Seat Re-location Day at Chase Field. This is an opportunity for me to once again go inside Chase Field and look around. It also provides me with a chance to select where I will be sitting for the upcoming season. For fans who go to games infrequently this probably seems like a foreign concept. After all, who really cares where your seats are located, it’s just a game. Well when you spend 83 games a year there (81 home games plus 2 spring training games), it matters quite a bit. I was so excited I could hardly sleep. The thoughts of walking through Chase Field and finding the perfect seats for the 2009 season just makes me giddy like a child on Christmas morning.
