opening day @ yankee stadium april 11, 2000

Opening Day 2000
Of all the pictures on this site, this is probably the lot I'm most embarassed of. So the story goes, at like 4:00 on a random Tuesday, the kids in the art dept. call me with extra ticket for the Yankees Opener. This picture was taken about 24 hours after that phone call (and after about 6 hours of drinking) - Kevin Ranford just fell down the stairs outside the stadium, Mike and I just took half a roll of film with these random kids, and Ken Rabe is wheeling and dealing with cops in an attempt to sit on their police bikes. From left to right: Ken, me, Ranford and Mike (aka Mikey Soprano).

There's actually much more to this story, but we really need Mikey's pictures from his digital camera to tell it. See, there's pics of the pre- and post-game tailgate, some parking lot nerf football action, some pics of the random kids in front of us.. see, all this drama, if only stupid Mikey Soprano would bring in his stupid digital camera!!! Why not email him and bug him about it.

Me, Mike and Ken - I think this right before we left, but one can never be sure.

Ken, me and Ranford - I look like I should be wearing a helmet or something.

An excited Ken Rabe. A near passed out D. Crowley.

Opening Day 2000
Me, Ken and Ranford (again - where is Mike during all this?!?). I was such a mess people were moving away from me on the subway.

Opening Day 2000
The only reason I included this is because I wasn't sure what's more embarassing: me taking a wee in the parking lot or Mike taking a picture of it.
