May 8, 201214 yr I have been considering taking in a Marlins game on my way back home from vacation in the Keys. helpful tip if you're in Key West... if you see a giant sign proclaiming "WOMENFEST 2012" you have NOT, repeat NOT just luckily happened upon some random gathering of hot college chicks or a girl-band music festival.
May 8, 201214 yr Author OK, thanks for that info. It may sound strange for some and insulting to the locals that I would have these concerns, but this is just a verification I do any time I go to a professional sport event. It started when, in 2003, the wife and I went to DC to watch the Redskins/Jets in a night game. Our hotel was a couple of blocks from the Capitol and we took the metro all the way out by PG county in Maryland which was the end of the line for the metro at that time. As we were getting closer to our destination a lady sitting across from us asked if we were going to the game. We confirmed that we were and we were pretty much going to wait at a pickup spot for about an hour for a shuttle bus. She was a government worker that was riding to the same dropoff point to get her car in a parking lot and she told me that we would not be safe sitting there for an hour at that location so she gave us a ride to the stadium. I was very appreciative of her and as someone who has spent my whole life in rural America I learned to at least verify the location you plan to go. Iowa we're from the southern part, near Carbondale (Southern IL Univ), if that helps. About an hour north of Kentucky, hour east of Missouri, and an hour west of where IL, KY, and IN all meet. Hotcorner, I take it there will be a lot of angry, hairy armpitted women there. LOL
