I admit it. They broke me! After all the walk offs, comebacks, etc. I thought this was the end of the road. There is no way they had any tricks left up their sleeves.so much so I think I called it in the 6th inning. I couldn't even muster the strength to keep watching the game. :cry:

I've never been so excited about being dead wrong. I'll be there tomorrow looking for one more win from the Amazing A's and beg for forgiveness.

I say part of this includes dancing when they play Gangnam Style and Call Me Maybe!

Also, every time Coco Clutch comes up to bat, you gotta get your Bernie Lean on if it hasn't been your ritual already.

I'll let the rest of the gang here figure out what else you should do in repentance.

Coco is the man! He's made up for that blundered catch a few games ago many times over.

A's are very similar to the 2010 Giants. Torture baby! lol

Btw, does anyone know why they don't remove the tarps in the seats up high to accommodate more fans? I don't know how many extra seats there are up there, but I would guess around 5k-10k extra seats not being used.

IIRC, it's over 50k with Mt. Davis open. Probably around 40k or so without it. I'm hoping they don't open up Mt. Davis. I've sat up there once, and those seats are terrible. You can only see about 20 feet beyond 2nd base. Even the Plaza Outfield seats right below the outfield luxury boxes can't see the last 20 feet of the outfield.

And Gagan is right, the owner said he'll take off the tarp only if the A's make the ALCS and beyond. Nice way to screw over the fans who supported the team down the stretch.

68K Capacity. 32K is what's there for seating right now for A's games.
