I was at Sicks Stadium

My mother would take my brothers and I to the Pilots games. We'd sit out in the left field bleachers. I was really young at the time. We didn't have much money so I have to believe my mom was getting free tickets from some promotional thing. I remember some hot-dog brand that had coupons inside each package and if you saved up enough of them you'd get free admission to a Seattle Totem's match. Gotta believe my mother was doing something similar to get free tickets to the Pilots.

I was a junior Pilot. It was like a 6 game package dirt cheap for the whole family

My brother caught a batting practice home run.

That was the team I listened to on the transistor under the covers

Is that anything like an Alter Boy...except out on Chevron Island vs the Rectory?

If you sat out in left field you were no doubt battling my brothers for balls that went into the stands. Between fouls, HRs and players tossing them balls they ended up with quite the collection. That 6 game package must have been what my mother did. We went to what I recall as quite a few games, and we never had money to do anything when I was a kid. Step dad would bring home McDonalds once a month on Friday's from the McDonalds in Ballard down by the Bowling Alley and the Bardahl sign. That was a HUGE luxury when we were kids.

I caught a big rock in the back of the head at Indigenous People’s stadium. Someone was throwing them from outside the stadium Into the crowd. Opened up quite a gash and Got took to the home locker room where they put stitches in my head. I was like 10 years old. Got an autographed ball.
