Bigger ISN'T better

I've learned all week that being BIGGER may not be better.

We've been trying to get Yankee tickets for the last week. Normally if we think about taking a baseball trip, everything is firmed up by May. But initially a friend of ours with family and friends in the Big Apple started handling. Their attempts all fell through. They ran into some road blocks. So we are starting over trying to take another avenue.

Exasperating. I don't think this is going to happen now. We've run into roadblock after roadblock.

We do have Cleveland Indians' season tickets and when we need to contact our Indians, no problem. We get right through to someone.

We have left messages for the all and powerful New York Yankee Ticket representatives who claim in their literature, 'any questions or problems, just call this number!'

You can not talk to a real person. We need to talk to a real person because we need handicapped seating. I do not want to spend an exorbitant amount of money on Stub Hub (which is exasperating as well) or some other option if Mom will have to climb a thousand steps.

Being bigger and claiming to be the best city in the world has its disadvantages!

Stay tuned...
