That being said, I'm a firm believer in giving up sleep in order to make memories. Because I'm telling you right now, you're not going to look back on life and remember all those times you skipped out early so you could get an extra hour of sleep.
We went to the Dodger game on Saturday where they showed Field of Dreams after the game on the big screens. I love this movie. I can't tell you how many times I've seen it. And watching it at the stadium was kind of the best. But we were surprised to see how many people left. I bet there were maybe just a thousand people left in the stadium, and even a lot of them left before the end of the movie. Don't they realize that the best parts are at the end? Like this:
You're seriously going to leave before the People Will Come speech? Or, "Hey Dad. Wanna have a catch?" For crying out loud! Sure, it was 11:30 and I'm sure they all had to get up early for church the next day. But so did I. Six hours of church, in fact. But if you get the chance to see James Earl Jones talk about baseball at Dodger Stadium you stay.

This sounds wonderful! I would have stayed and eaten Cracker Jacks with you. How fun! BTW, little man is going to his first baseball game on May 18. And, the D Backs are playing the Dodgers. (0:
Umm one of the best movies ever!
Yeah, I feel the same way when I see people leaving the actual baseball games early, too. I mean, you paid for the whole game, and even if you think you know how it's going to end, I've been to plenty of games that have some surprising endings. And, I don't know, that's the point, isn't it? Staying until the bitter, bitter end?
