Life has ups and downs, but at this point I:

Got to see Willie Mays
Got to see Gretzky
Got to see Tiger Woods
Got to see Tom Brady
Got to live through the Reagan presidency
Got to hear @TheVinScully
Got to go to a Sinatra concert

Everyone a GOAT

Life’s been good.

@KathleenWinche3 @FLCons Four years since the folks at Mayo took care of my cancer…surgery and then radiation. Incredibly grateful to have them right on my backyard.

@TrumpsHurricane Each other.

@EndWokeness @billglahn Nobody loves criminals the way Minnesota Democrats love criminals.

[Tim Droogsma @TimDroogsma]

@goodsportztakez Never forget that nobody loves criminals the way Minnesota DFLers love criminals.

@AndrewMercado The inability of people like @andrewmercado to express themselves without using profanity is generally regarded as a sign of a low-IQ individual.

Some Ron Gant-like baserunning there! #91Worldseries #Hrbek

@KurtSchlichter I’m okay with either Vance or Rubio, but I would write a check today if Bessent announced he was running for President.

@Lindsay_Schnell I’m just here for the ratio. 😃

@NFL_DovKleiman @BuzzPatterson It’s only “extremely suspicious” if you’re a retard who doesn’t understand anything about football, and you don’t realize that the objective of the game is to win, not cover the spread.

@RealJamesWoods Had to deal with her professionally back in the ‘80s. She was deceptive and manipulative way back then. Can’t imagine getting old has changed her.

@SenMarkey Nice of little Eddie to put his bigotry out on public display. Massachusetts must be full of dimwits if he keeps getting elected.

@thorn_john @Jimfrombaseball Thanks for posting a fantastic picture. I’m curious if “Grand Stand” as two words was common usage then, and if so, when did “Grandstand” become the norm?

@BuzzPatterson @ChrisMurphyCT @SenWhitehouse is a very close second.

[Tim Droogsma @TimDroogsma]

@ChrisMurphyCT Bold for a U.S. senator to come out in favor of Iranian terrorists having nuclear weapons, but that’s just mainstream Democrat policy in 2026. #NeverForget911

@Jimfrombaseball I had connections to both. Williams’ first wife was from my hometown of Princeton, MN, and for a time my aunt was his bookkeeper. In the ‘80s I worked in the U.S. Senate, and Sen. Glenn was in the next office over. Met several times, very gracious man.

@proj_true_north Try to find someone who loves you with the same deep and passionate love that Minnesota Democrats have for criminals.

[Tim Droogsma @TimDroogsma]

@AndrewMercado Nobody loves criminals the way Minnesota Democrats love criminals!

The sickening stories keeping coming in…😢😢😢

SHAME ON YOU, @StubHub.

Imagine being a kid, a HUGE @Brewers fan, and finding out you’re going to see your team play in the WORLD SERIES! ⚾️💙💛

The excitement. The anticipation. The memories you’re already imagining making.

Now imagine having that excitement ripped away because a company sold your 3 tickets that you bought, that they apparently can’t deliver.

That’s exactly what we’re dealing with right now.

We purchased THREE tickets to the Milwaukee Brewers World Series for Game 1 last Tuesday(13th) through StubHub. We selected our section, our row, paid for our tickets, and received our order confirmation.

Everything was supposed to be set.

Then suddenly, StubHub tells us they’re “searching for replacement options” because they can’t provide the tickets we purchased.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

How does a company accept someone’s hard earned money, confirm a purchase, and then turn around and say they can’t fulfill it?!

And their solution? We can request a refund while they continue looking for tickets.

THIS ISN’T ABOUT THE MONEY.

It’s about the experience. It’s about the memories. It’s about the excitement of a kid, his dad, and grandpa, who thought they were going to watch their favorite baseball team play on the biggest stage in baseball.

Look at the first picture. That’s the disappointment you’re creating, StubHub.

A refund doesn’t replace that moment.

And here’s what really bothers me…

StubHub advertises a “FanProtect Guarantee” and tells customers their orders are “100% guaranteed.”

Guaranteed WHAT, exactly?!

Because from where we’re sitting, that guarantee doesn’t feel worth much when you can’t deliver the tickets you sold us.

We did everything right. We purchased through a major ticket marketplace. We trusted the confirmation. We trusted the guarantee.

Now it’s time for StubHub to make it right.

We aren’t asking for anything extra. We want the three tickets we paid for, or comparable or better seats together, at no additional cost.

Stubhub…DO BETTER.

Please SHARE this. Not just for us, but for every fan who has trusted a ticket company with an experience that means so much more than the price of admission.

@seyheytt Nice pic! Penny and I went to game 5 in Milwaukee, the first World Series I attended, thanks to a connection with a guy who ushered at County Stadium. He was responsible for the players’ wives section, and brought us over to meet Molitor’s 1st wife, Linda.

@peggyflanagan Little Peggy loves criminals so, so much. It would be dangerous to let her have a seat in the U.S. Senate.
