Barry Ties History

A few weeks ago my work offered a free Padres ticket and extras for $6. I thought it would be a fun night on the town so I got one for myself and Karen. Well as the game approached Barry Bonds got closer and closer to tying Hank Aaron's all-time home-run record. On Saturday night he was 1 shy of tying the record and he was playing the Padres...

I was excited that we had tickets, so did almost 43,000 people (sold-out). As we were heading to our seats we stopped just beyond right field, just in case, cause Barry was up next. He didn't get up in the first, so we headed to our seats. Next inning he lead-off, and everyone was booing! It was amazing to hear.


But as the pitch was delivered everyone was taking photos, flashes were going off everywhere. And when he made contact and everyone saw it go for the fence, they all stood up, and cheered in excitement. We were jumping up-and-down. It was awesome! People went from booing him to cheering.


We had seen Barry make history. He was tied for 1st on the all-time home-run list.

Heres some video of him trying for the record later that night. People were booing, taking pictures, and cheering him on at the same time.



And the idiot threw the ball back on the field... And me with only a cell-phone camera...
