A year or so into our dating life husband was going to a Mets baseball game with some friends from grad school. He asked me to come along. He had been to major league – Yankees – games before including World Series games when he was young. I had never been. (I will add that neither of us is much of a sports enthusiast – whether watching or playing a sport – his dad used to get invited to games by business associates as in “you bring your son and I’ll bring mine”.)
I should have suspicious at the price of the tickets – the seats were ALL the way up in the nosebleed section. Okay I am the first one to say save a buck, get cheaper seats, but what was never taken into account was my fear of heights! I walked up there okay as only was looking right ahead of me. I sat with my eyes closed most of the time. It was coming back down which was a PROBLEM. Luckily I am short and one of his friends is about 6 ft tall and built like a football tackle. He walked in front of me step by step as we walked down so I could not see beyond him to see how high up we were.
