[/caption]I attended blanket night at Dodger Stadium last night, the team was in fantastic shape beating the San Diego Padres 8 - 5. The game was sold out with many fans outside offering to pay scalpers' demands for a ticket.
It's been one full week since the media hype engines spread Swine Flu hysteria. Yet here I sat among 54,000 plus people - Dodger fans - who despite hearing of the level 5 health crises were laughing, eating and having a great time.
We sat in the stadium seats shoulder to shoulder inhaling the same air, daring to risk our lives for a night of enjoyment. No one mentioned the Swine Flu. No one joked about it. No one considered it.
The elderly, parents, young adults and children simply cheered and reveled in a close game on a beautiful night and had fun. Hell, I even high-fived a guy I didn't know twice after two awesome plays.
