I’ve been looking forward to Avenue Q for three years, Mark Ellis Bobblehead Day three month, and I didn’t realize that they were going to fall on the same night until three weeks ago. $70 Avenue Q over priceless Ellis bobblehead, the choice is clear – I’m gonna buy the cheapest ticket, get the bobblehead, and hop on BART to the theatre.
Everything went according to my plan, except for a bit extra walking cos I didn’t want to exit from the entrance. I got in line for the ticket, was worried whether the bobblehead would run out, but fortunately there were still plenty in gate MM. I got it and then went to the A’s store and pick up another A’s official magazine cos it was Dan Haren on the cover. (They cheat! How can they put three of my fav players on the cover three months in a row to make me HAVE to buy all of them!) As I came out of the stadium toward the BART, I was heading the opposing direction as of most of the people. With the bobblehead in my bag (I’d feel even worse if it were in my hand), I felt cheap. I could feel people’s glaring with contempt, even though some of them complimented on my boots (heh!); I screamed in my heart… “I’m not like those who go in and out of the stadium to get 10 bobbleheads, I wanted to watch the game but I can’t!!!!”
Anyways, Avenue Q was hilarious. Love the flurry monster! =)
