So here we go! I was extremely excited for the Pirates home opener, I got to PNC Park around 10 am. All the ballhawks were there, when the gates opened, I ran into the stadium and got into the bleachers (since I am a season ticket holder this year). As soon as I got into the bleachers, I almost got hit by my one and only ball of the day, it was hit by an unknown Pirate.

The bleachers started to get crowded.

I changed into my Rockies gear, and had a unsuccessful BP with them, the outfield was very crowded and nobody could move around.

After BP I went up to my ticketed seat, to see the view, I should have stayed there.

The only ball I got at this game was signed by Joel Hanrahan, my favorite Pirates pitcher.

I went back down to the bleachers for the game, got a slice of pizza (as always)
Here are some other pictures from the game.

I stayed at the game until the 8th, it was too crowded to get another ball. There were people everywhere, I barely watched any of the game, cause I couldn't see over all the people. Like I said above, I should have stayed at my seat. By the time I left the stadium I was really thristy, thankfully people were handing out free Pepsi.

Good stuff.
