4:15 AM - depart home to go to Calgary airport. For those of you that know me, you know how major of a commitment it is for me to get out of bed before 8 AM. Very few things get me up before dawn. Baseball is on that shortlist. (Very short. It has exactly one item on it).
7:00 AM - Flight departs towards DFW (Dallas) where I'll catch a connection to RSW (Fort Myers)
6:00 PM - We arrive at RSW, after a pair of uneventful flights.
7:00 PM - after getting luggage and rental car check in at the hotel.
I check my phone, and see on my twitter feed that the Red Sox have an exhibition game against Puerto Rico's WBC team starting in 5 minutes. Fenway South is about a 5 minute drive away. Is the game sold out, will I be able to buy tix from a scalper? I'm tired and hungry, but only one way to find out.
We head towards the game, and quickly buy a pair and make our way to our seats. I'm going to be in Fort Myers less than 48 hours in total, but will get to watch the Red Sox play three times. As Macklemore would say "This is ***ing Awesome!"
