So I'm at the game tonight, and...

The Brewers put on a Social Media event tonight, which included a Q&A session with Joe Block, and social media reps from UW-M, the Brewers, Packers, Bucks and Admirals.

 

Our seats for the game were in the ATI Club, the seats on the warning track in right field. I was sitting there talking to the guy on my right, when I decided to strike up a conversation with the guy on my left, who turned out to be our own, "thablingster."

 

It was nice to meet you, Sir...imagine that!

It's a small world! It was nice to chat with you.

 

The social media night was definitely a blast. The roundtable in the interview room was entertaining, Chris Narveson stopped by, as well as Bernie Brewer. Those chairs were quite comfortable, too!

 

As we walked out and back to the ATI club Aramis Ramirez and Doug Melvin were in the hallway, I wasn't paying attention and almost bumped into Aramis.

 

I spent the evening bouncing back and forth between talking to splitterpfj, talking to a couple guys to my left, and asking Cait about Yuni B's at-bat song from last year, as well as several other random questions (why no at-bat music for Aramis, I should have asked him!).

 

I really enjoy when the Brewers put on events like this. You meet new people, kind of get an insiders look at things, and can generally have a good time, even when the game doesn't go so hot.

That was pretty funny, blingster, I almost stepped on Doug Melvin. I wanted to say something to him, but there was staff there, keeping us moving along.

 

As thablingster said, on our way through, Aramis Ramirez came out of a batting cage on the other side of the hallway, in full uniform, etc...he seemed oblivious to our presence, he just walked between everyone and into the Clubhouse. I think Aramis would have been fine with someone asking for an autograph, etc, but the staff seemed pretty intent on keeping us off the VIPs.

 

Chris Narveson seemed like a nice guy, he seemed pretty bummed out though, which I guess makes sense for him at the moment.

 

I saw Gord Ash tonight too, on his way into the stadium, it was a fun night.

Plus, pretzel buns in the ATI Club. I highly recommend them. Corey Hart might block your view from time to time, but that's a true first world problem.

 

The reps were really cool about mingling with fans, too. The Packers rep was allowing fans to try on his Super Bowl ring.

Sat in the "AirTran" zone last year when Axford had his twitter promotion for the signed bobbleheads -- you are not kidding about those pretzel buns; I didn't think there was much innovation to be had in the grillable food arena, but boy was I wrong.

They sell them in the Club Level.

If the Brewers ever started renting out full-time residential living spaces on the Club level, I'm not sure how I'd be able to justify not living there.

 

The Club level is just... awesome.

It is awesome. That's why I moved my 20-pack there this year. Right behind home plate too. Even more perfect. :)

Yeah pretzel buns are awesome.

Fan is short for fanatic.

I blame Wang.
