My point to all this is....if you are a DIEHARD and love your team--HELL YEAH GO--its only money and you NEVER know if they will ever do it again.
This, of course is the Ultimate Sayer of "Go or Don't Go."
I realized on the question too that I forgot an important consideration and maybe a vitally important one to the ? of go or don't go.
This is if you or your ole lady are in works that could see you benefiting from making connections, "Networking" as they call it if you go and you're attired in a fashion that represents your team (
I suggest Blue and.....what the is that Lime fuggin Green??!? "Chartreuse?? Whats wrong with you people up there in the corner?) you'll make Lifelong friends, literally.
I ain't sayin' be up in peeps faces like Multi-Level marketing ladies or Don LaPre selling books to teach you how to get rich off placing
tiny classified ads but just natural meeting people.
You will have a special connection forever, you were there.
Of 100 people you meet it is not unrealistic that 6 of those would become people you then "Know" forever. Numbers increase the more roaming you do of the vast "parking area" which might be 3+ square miles of territory and, best of, The Renaissance Hotel.
Fair Play dictates I clarify my earlier opinion about how much or little value lies in area surrounding Stadium is just that, my opinion and theres many many
MANY more bars than I mentioned. Me personally I prefer, instead of a crowded bar too loud to communicate 10 ounce drinks with .34 ounce of Alcohol for $6 or even worse, to just hang out in the parking lot with a 49 cent loaf of day old bread, a pack of Bologna and a bottle of Night Train, Boone's farm Strawberry Hill for the Lady of course or just go in The Renaissance and eat the food thats in there.
'Hawks fans up in them room parties won't care. Hell
the opposite. even just
MARINERS FANS HERE DURING SPRING TRAINING its sometimes difficult to get them to let you go to work, when you get ensnared, tangled up partying with them.
Its cuz you people get
exuberant when you come down here which happens because where you live its cloudy every single day, totally overcast, raining like 93% of the time but here its sunny 100% of the time so this place is like Liquid Extasy to you guys. Doesn't just bring you guys out of the funk you're constantly in cuz of your cloudiness this place turns you guys in to Richard Simmons minus the intense flaming homosexuality.
Hopefully...minus that anyways.
There are exceptions to every rule...of course.
Don't let Hotel Security or Glendale PD thwart you in accomplishing full access to The Renaissance.
This is key. Best Strategy is bring a Security Guard uniform with you, one for each of you, then you can pretty much go wherever you want 'cept in the stadium of course. Another way (
but more "involved") is to gank a couple of the Super Bowl Volunteer shirts or better yet Security....everything has a price.
taking my advice might have a hefty price too of course but we only live once.
The Renaissance has many doors. If obstacles are present at the front or within the Lobby/Elevator walk around the perimeter of the hotel, the Kitchen doors are especially interesting.
If you like to be very prepared like, you're cut from Boy Scout cloth or such, bring Bus Boy attire ("whites"), waitress/server outfit for the ole lady in addition to security guard outfits. Some sort of
badge is key on that of course and the badge needs to be shiny.
Just try to not look like an Illegal Alien here. Don't under any circumstances operate a Leaf Blower while you're here and especially not if your have Brown skin tone. probably won't arise...the Leaf Blower thing but if you have to don the Busboy attire to invade the hotel just focus on being as unBrown as possible while you're doing that.
...I'm really feeling more and more like you guys should do this.
Life is short
and money ain't anywhere even remotely close to whats really the "important stuff" on this lonely rock we're on floating through space.
