As of mid-afternoon Monday, the lowest price listed on StubHub, the official fan-to-fan ticket marketplace partner of MLB, was $925 (plus fees) for World Series Game 3, which will be played at the Braves’ stadium Friday night. The prices on StubHub for Games 4 and 5, scheduled for Truist Park on Saturday and Sunday, started at $920 and $799 (plus fees), respectively, as of Monday afternoon.

A friend of mine in Houston has an uncle with a luxury suite at the Astros stadium.  She was posting pics from game 1 in the suite.  Must be nice (aside from the outcome of the game, I suppose).

I once rode my [former] motorcycle, a Suzuki SV650S, over 400 miles in a day.

I could barely walk after that.

It was a 90 degree V-twin, which is an engine configuration with natural balance. Not some 45 degree V-twin like a Harley that vibrates like a, well, ya know...

I've been in the Braves suite' at Truist, it's not very fancy.  I was in the GE suite in Cincinnati once that was quite nice, open bar etc., and in another than was pretty plain.

I'd like being there for a WS game though, seems like a Thing.

I remember the luxury suites at the old Cooper Stadium in Columbus. 

It was like getting sent to the hole, only with a sheet of nicotine stained Plexiglas.

Can't make this shit up - a Roller Derby Team :41:

Major League Baseball's Cleveland Indians, which is changing its name to the Guardians, was sued for trademark infringement on Wednesday by a local roller derby team also named the Guardians.
This is a play for money. MLB has lots of money. They'll probably give this defunct roller derby team some money, and it will go away.

I think if you get the vaccine, you're not racist anymore.  Something like that.  It was on CNN. 
If it was on CNN and nobody watched, was it really on?

Nope. And that’s the beauty. We get to vote with our attention. And when we use our attention wisely for ourselves, we likely find ourselves in a better spot.

What about when we use our attention to stroke our confirmation bias? :96:

That places you in with 98% of the rest of the population.  

utee94 has described me as a contrarian, and while he's clearly wrong about that, I have noticed that in people who agree with my conclusions, most of them arrived there in the dumbest ways.  It's hard to give credit to people who arrive at a good destination with faulty maps, on accident.
