So, a few months ago, my twin sis mentioned that her husband would love to bring my nephew (a big fan thanks to me!) to a Yankee game. But, two things occurred to me the other day: #1 I am moving to SF in 2 months, so after that, they won't have anywhere to stay if they wanted to come to the city for a game. They live several hours away in PA and can't afford a hotel. #2 BIL is terminally ill with an aggressive case of Huntington's Disease, and if we wait too long, he might not be in any condition to travel to NYC for a baseball game at all. So, in an effort to make this happen, I did some research and discovered that 5 tickets together is an expensive commodity in Yankee Stadium, unless we want to sit in the bleachers. I sent a bulletin board email to my entire company (over 2000 real estate agents and staffers) and got a HUGE response! No one had tickets I could afford, but my boss and another team member are putting up $200 so we can get the "good" seats! I was totally blown away by their generosity and was really excited to deliver the news to my sister. The boys are thrilled and I even got an extra ticket so my cousin can come with them and spend one more weekend in the city with me before I leave! She's like my little sister and loves coming to visit me and escape from the small town we grew up in. I am the coolest, aunt, cousin, sister EVER!

I can send the email at work and see what happens! Seriously, they are peddling all kind of wares on that board. It's worth a shot, right? If I get anything, I'll put you in touch with them. Sound good?
Yes you are.
OH YES YOU ARE!
