138 shall not be ignored!

The marketing people of the San Francisco Giants have let me down. BIG TIME!

There is a new Giants commercial airing on local TV that interviews people and asks the question "Where are the best seats in the house?" The commercial ends with Rich Aurilia saying that he thinks he has the best seat and shows him in the dugout. But before him, a variety of fans are giving shout outs to their sections.The sections are all over the park; well, I didn't really hear any upper deck sections but you get the point. The final fan before the Aurilia shot is a bleacher fan saying slowly "one...three...nine" WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!?!?!

I think 138 is officially going to declare war on every other section. We're the ones that don't stand if the AT&T tries to do the wave and turn into Oakland or Los Angeles. We're the ones were called Lou Seal's favorite section on the stadium screen and in the kids newsletter mailed home. Our section is the one that's been getting all kinds of face time on the new HD screen--I've been up there three times and once on TV during the Friday night game vs. the dodgers. We're the first section to put our numbers on our jerseys, hats, and tattoos (only one has that, but c'mon, that's commitment).
