Trust me I know the feeling. One year I went to at least 40-50 games, wasnt making squat for money, and maxed out a credit card getting the seat I always liked to sit at that was always available. It was section 126 row 24 seat 8 I believe. I would go after work all sweaty and stinking, get to the teller and tell them I wanted that seat. Most times they would just look at me funny, because I requested a certain seat, but 99% of the times I got it.
One of the few times I didn't get it, was the game Randy got his 20K's. I was so mad I had to switch seats, but the one they had that was actually better, I was about 10 rows directly behind homeplate. Only reason I was mad was because I had to pay more for that seat, but man that was well worth it.
Thankfully, the next year I was lucky enough to befriend a season ticket holder. Her husband always had to work during most games, so they let me go with her when he couldn't go. Think I lucked out and got to about 25-30 games that year for free. Saved my credit card for the following year when they moved back to Chicago lol
