Omaha: Here I come!!

 

Believe it or not, I actually thought about not going to Omaha for the College World Series.  Those thoughts did not last long.

I quickly found a motel room for a reasonable price (not easy with the ever-increasing popularity of the event.)  But then began the search for tickets.

It seems that when the series moved from Rosenblatt to Ameritrade, the number of tickets given to the individual schools was greatly reduced.  The best that I can tell, they cut the number for each school in half.

For most schools that would not create any sort of problem.  But this is Arkansas and we do support our Hogs!  What a pain this must be for Mark Scoby and the staff at the Razorback ticket office.

I am pleased to say that I have managed to score one ticket for each of the Razorback games.  Whew!  I am quite thankful to those who helped in my ticket search.

So, I’m off to Omaha on Friday to Call the Hogs!  Now to pack.

Update:  I just got a call and BOB has a place to stay while I’m in Omaha, thanks to Sharon of the Pet Emporium in Pea Ridge.

Go OmaHogs!  Woo Pig Sooie!!
