The suites are "sweet" at Coors Field

My husband, our family and my husband's friends all deserve to watch the Rockies Game from a suite at Coors Field.

Why do you say?.......I'll tell you why

My husband Rob has been a "die hard" fan of the Rockies since we've lived in Colorado

Before they went to the Championships.... before they went to the World Series.
He has been a fan through thick and thin.

He's taken vacation days ...comp days... and whatever days he can to see the Rockies play here at home.

He's liked baseball a lot, but has never really been a baseball fanatic until we moved here... and he loves the Rockies Team.

I stood in line at 7:30 a.m., like many other Rockies fans, during last year's season. I was lucky enough to get tickets to the Championship for my family about two 1/2 weeks before we even new they would go to the World Series.

Last week I did the foolish thing to get better seats. I went online and found four seats for my family at $47 a piece... than a day later ...bought four more better seats for $53 a piece. (outfield and infield box seats)

Well... I thought I could find one of my husband's buddies to buy the tickets.... Boy was I wrong.

I screwed up because they were all out of town, so I sold them for $15 a piece on the corner before the game and lost $140. Live and learn.

I don't think I can afford to go to another game this year and my husband is not happy with me.

Winning the suite tickets would surely make up for it...right...so please pick me.
I would really love to go to one more Rockies Game this year with our family and friends.

Our 19th wedding anniversary is April 23 and it would make a great Anniversary present.

The last reason I think we deserve to go is... that my husband just applied for a job in San Francisco CA ...

He is a good contender to get the position.

If he does.... we will not be able to see another game at Coors Field again.

I would love to be able to tell him we could go to one more game here in Colorado just in case it does happen.
Please pick us to win the suites for our family and friends.

Thank you for the opportunity to win.

P.S. if possible... a Wed or Sun game would be great. I work Tues/Thurs nights
