Tiger's Opening Day

Opening day in Detroit is always a special occasion - sun, rain, or even snow, it's a party all day long. This year happened to fall on good Friday so most people had the day off of work anyway. We were lucky enough to snag some standing room only tickets so that we could go to the game. Of course we got down there super early to enjoy some less-than-$8 beers before the game. It was a tad chilly but at least it was sunny!
Love the beer cups at Comerica, you tell 'em!


Look who showed up to sing the national anthem - it's KID ROCK!



We eventually met up with Amanda and some of her friends. Thanks to Rebecca at Proof for the yummy shots!!


We had a hotel room for the night too - if you're looking for a place to stay downtown, I highly recommend the new Fort Shelby Doubletree. It's a little off the beaten path but not a far walk to the stadium area or jump on the People Mover if you don't feel like walkin'.

I'm glad I finally got to partake in the opening day festivities. I'm thinking it might have to be an annual event!
