More rain!

So, we are now in Pittsburgh. And we are not at the game. Which as I am writing this, is in the bottom of the 5th inning. At 11:19 p.m. We left around 8 p.m. The game was supposed to start at 7:05 p.m. There was a lot of rain and a lot of lightening in the area. The scoreboard said they were expecting another bout of bad weather. It was also showing a replay of the 2006 All-Star game to keep fans occupied. Since the rain delay lasted 2 hours and 55 min according to mlb.com, I am guessing that anyone who stayed got to see all of that All-Star game (which was played at PNC Park, so it was not totally random game they happened to have video of).

Once the scoreboard told us to not stay in the open portions of the stadium due to the lightening and potential high gusting winds, we decided that they were probably not going to play the game (we were wrong) and that we didn't want to be there even if they did. If it had been just regular rain, you bet we would have stuck it out, even for 2 hours and 55 min. But with lightening and a warning to not be outdoors, we figured it would be in our best interests to just go to the hotel. Which we did.

But not before we got a shot glass that said "PNC Park" and Justin allowed me to take this photo of him in a poncho. Priceless.
