We hit up an Astros game back in April. Somehow, some way, the Astros peeps got our number and invited us to tour the ball park before the game started. I said, "How much does it cost?" the girl said, "It's free." and then I said, "Heck yes."
All ready to go cheer on those Astros:
The tour mostly consisted of all the different season ticket seats and special areas for fans who have mucho bucks and spend those mucho bucks at Minute Maid Park. We saw executive offices and where the announcers sit and didn't have to wait in a huge line to be one of the first [insert number] of people to get the free bobble head.
The highlight of the tour was definitely getting to go right on the field during batting practice:

It was only for about a minute, but it was still super cool.
After the tour, the girl hooked us up with great, close tickets. Basically, it was the best free gig ever.
The game was definitely action packed. The Indians scored like 8 runs in the first inning. Needless to say, it was a looooong game and we had to leave early. The final score of 18-6 didn't change, though, so we saw everything we needed to see. Just as Miles changed his allegiance at the Avs v. Stars game, he ditched his Astros hat and rooted for those winning Indians all the way. Fun times!
