Have discovered several websites like Groupon offering great prices on local events. Took advantage of one to see the second to the last Nationals game of the regular season. The $18 ticket price also included a $6 food credit so we got dinner at the park for $2! Woo hoo! Yes, I love a bargain. The stadium is a 20 minute walk from our apartment so we didn't have to fight crowds on the metro OR take the car. WE LOVE THAT!

| Our seats were right by the Phillies bullpen so people were coming down all night hoping to get tossed a ball. Many did! |
It rained on and off throughout the game but not enough to call it or make us miserable. In fact, temperature was great. Love the sights and sounds of a ballpark!
The game itself was a snoozer (Nats lost 2-0), however, the Braves lost their game to the Pirates, thus giving the Nationals their first NL East title since MLB came back to DC. I've never seen a crowd so happy after a loss! Fun times!
