Since going to Boston for a Red Sox game has become impossible and expensive, MBC and I took to the road to see a couple of Orioles games in Baltimore. The entire cost of the trip is cheaper than buying tickets for the Red Sox from Stubhub.com...even more so when we split the gas expenses with another couple and they hook us up with free lodging (hooray hotel points!). 
We had a blast.
Anyway, a few pics...
The view from our seats. Club level (second deck) front row.
Orioles Park
I had a crabcake sandwich at the Friday game and it was awesome.
Johnny Unitas has got nothing on MBC
Some sort of Mountain Dew challenge thing is happening in a couple of weeks and they were setting up venues around town.
Beers are on the house when MBC is tending the bar.
We stopped in this place before the games for BEER. The place is called the Wharf Rat and they brew their own.
See? Beer. The many colors.
A guy at the visitors' center at the wharf told us about a bar called Max's in Fells Point...a two mile walk or short water taxi ride. Since it was hotter than hell, we took the water taxi (no walking and COOL). It just so happened each person who takes the water taxi gets a free round of beer at Max's. HOORAY FREE BEER!
Max's...some sort of Beeradvocate.com Top 50 Place to Have a Beer or something. Best bar I've been in by far.
The list of beers on tap at Max's. I was so excited it actually frightened MBC a bit.
Beer and food at Max's:
And MBC picked up a shirt there! (reads, "Beer, now cheaper than gas!") As if you need another reason to buy beer.
Smoking cigars is bad. It turned this dog into wood.
And another baseball pic from the game last night. Two very good games, too!
We had a blast but are tired as hell from the many beers and many miles on the road.

Poor jealous Orioles fans. I doubt those fans would care if MBC was wearing a Blue Jays jersey. But we didn't care. We still cheered for the home team.
