Take me out to the ballgame! Just like you, our loyal readers, our office team is all about summer fun on a budget. And one of our summer traditions is going to one or two Colorado Rockies games. There’s something special about the roar of the crowd, the crack of bat and enjoying a hot dog under the summer sun at Coors Field.
Plus, we’re always watching the scoreboard to see if we get cheap tacos at Taco Bell or FREE nuggets at McDonald’s the following day.
Fortunately, our team has some extra tickets we can’t use. Of course, we can’t just toss them out! We’d rather give them away to one of our frugal friends.
