Amber and I were lucky enough to go to a Hanshin Tigers game. The Tigers are Osaka's biggest sports team. It was a ton of a fun. I am going to try to get playoff tickets to see another baseball game but it could be rather difficult. The feel and the energy was similar to a college football game back in the states. People are constantly cheering, and making noises with sticks, mini bats, or those blow up sticks that make that drum noise.
Here is the video as promised.
Here is a video of the field, players, the game, and crowd.
Here are the Tiger mascots. I don't know their names or remember them. I didn't even know there was a female tiger until we were at the game.
Proof that Amber and I were there and not just taking these videos from you tube.
Here is a video of zambonis. (Mostly for Steve)
Video of the 7th inning stretch and its craziness. Amber and I absolutely loved this and thought it was the coolest thing.
Well that is all the video I have. The Sports Day Festival was canceled because of rain. The rain never came. I think they will be doing something tomorrow for it but we will not be around since we will be going to USJ(Universal Studios Japan) for my birthday.

I like how the video that you introduce by saying "this is proof that we were really there..." didn't work. Ha ha. Also, what's with all the blow up wieners? I bet Amber liked that. :-)
