[Matt]

Bad news for sure. Sorry Matt.

[Oaktavia]

@Anesthetist take care of you loved ones my friend you will be missed

[Giles]

Best of luck with this Matt......

[Matt]

I get it. I moved back to Baltimore so that I could be closer to bars I could walk to. We have to hold close the things we cherish.

[hajduk]

@Anesthetist Same as @Chap! It would have been great to meet you! Take good care of your loved ones and we'll meet one day!🫵️

[weftyarn]

@Anesthetist Wishing you all the best, mate

Bummed to see that some folks can’t make it! Marcia and I are finally BOOKED. Staying at the Hyatt place inner harbor from Thursday to Sunday. We are going to the Orioles on Friday, and if you’re still crawling, we may join up after.

[Matt]

That’s awesome. Any good giveaways that night?

[sabergirl]

It’s Hispanic heritage night and they made a jersey that look really slick. https://www.mlb.com/orioles/tickets/hispanic-heritage-month

[Matt]

I saw that one. Very cool.

[Oaktavia]

@sabergirl oh dude those are awesome

[goosehd]

So….what time would one need to show up to get one of these jerseys? I’m guessing a couple of hours in advance??

The capacity is 42,000ish and there are 15,000 jerseys with an age restriction of 21 bettering the chances.

[jdwaid]

The gates open 90 minutes before start, so I would guess getting there 2 hours before game time to get in line would probably enough to guarantee a jersey.

If folks end up going to the game let me know where you are going to be seated. I think Matt suggested a general admission area somewhere earlier in this thread. My flight gets in at 615pm, but if I plan it right might be able to get there close to first pitch.

I'm still trying to figure out what the best time to meet up is and where. I'm not too keen on riding the bike on central MD highways during rush hour but I'm trying to see whats going on Friday after work or mid saturday. it might just be a wing-it and see where y'all are when i'm ready. advice?

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich maybe use Google maps and check the "avoid highways" box and see where it takes you. Maybe up route 2 or 4?

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia I'm not sure there is a highway free route to Bmore from my house or work. It's about 50-60 miles, and i dont have much choice but to use 97/32/295/695. I'm sure i can make the ride, if i dont break down. Just trying to hash out the when and where for friday evening or mid-saturday.

[Oaktavia]

Ah gotcha gotcha. Well I'll be headed there Friday after work as well. Checking into my hotel around happy hour time. Not sure when or at what bar folks want to start but I bet Matt has ideas.

[AdamJ]

We land at 19:40 on Thursday, @AdamC will be leading the charge to the bar by 22:00

[WhiskeySandwich]

well it sounds like i'm in for a night ride anyway unless i hold off for saturday. just trying to reduce the sketch factor. I'll have to limit my intake lol
