So Naive

I'm so naive. I was just watching the Royals' game and thought how cool it would be to surprise Lance with a dugout suite for his birthday. He's going to be 35 so it's kinda a big year. I thought it would be so neat to reserve a suite and invite family and friends and have a very unique experience. I thought I would be able to do this for around $500.00. Boy was I wrong.

To reserve a dugout suite, the cheapest package starts at $4,600.00! Yes, that's not a typo - four thousand, six hundred dollars! I'm in shock. With that you get dinner and tickets for 30 people. Only $150/person. That's all. No biggie. I'll just dip into my checkbook and write a check. No problem. Whatever.

We could go on almost two cruises for that price! That's such a bummer. I've always wanted to sit in a dugout suite, ever since they first got them. How cool would that be to be that close to the field and see everything close up? But for that much money? It will never happen. That's too bad.

I guess Lance and I will just have to go The Melting Pot for his birthday. Maybe I'll splurge and we'll get sodas with our meal! So, I guess if anyone has some great ideas for a birthday surprise for Lance I'd love to hear it - my budget is around $500.00!
