~ Mets def Marlins 10:4. More pix on Reddit
Getting into the parking garage is super difficult – long wait at traffic light, then the traffic itself. There are sections in the garage that are corned off for the valet parking. Seriously, where are the valets? We’re late for the game – for me, the national anthem is the highlight. So I’m pretty mad.
The game is very much one sided. A grand slam home run in the 5th inning by Mets 1st baseman Pete Alonso (1994-), his first of the year, which is kind of sealed the outcome. Mets would defeat Marlins 10-4.
The LoanDepot park is an arena with retractable roof. It’s air conditioned tonight. At Miami Open because there isn’t roof, so the finals are affected by the element.
We’re on the upper deck and there are no cup holders (!!!) – for Pete’s sake, even Van Wezel has. (Cheap seats don’t have them.)
The small box of popcorn is very much appreciated.
There are these letters on the ground – do they mean anything, or just a decor? A, N, O could be Loan but M or W? … Some fans said it’s a nod to the Orange Bowl.
… and the parking and the park
