(Please read) 4 free tickets to Rakuten vs. Yakult 5/29

Due to an app issue, I have 4 extra tickets I am picking up today at 7/11. They are for this Friday’s game at Rakuten Mobile Park. Great seats: infield, 1st base side, 6 rows up. Not asking for cash (though I won’t refuse), just don’t want to see them go to waste. If you can make it to Ikebukuro today, or Sendai tomorrow afternoon, they are yours. Juat PM me.

UPDATE: I ended up waiting outside the gate and gave the tickets to a family of 4. I think I made the little boy‘s entire year when he saw where they were located. Originally, we had the CABOX seats in the upper deck, but due to an app error, where I thought I put the tickets up for sale, I bought the others in a panic.

I just had to attend this game. I spent 17 years as a university English instructor; and, 13 years ago, I was offered a contract to teach Business English at Tohoku University in Sendai. For reasons I don’t want to disclose, I backed out last minute. That ended up being the same year Tanaka went 24-0 and won the Japan series.

It has been one of the big what-ifs of my life.

Two years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 renal cell carcinoma. I decided it was time to see what it was I missed, so I’m here in Sendai with my wife and mother-in-law (whom I would not have met if I had taken that contract). Finally made it to the park. it’s beautiful. I’ll be at Kyocera Dome in 2 weeks, having hit my Pacific League trifecta of faves (Rakuten, Orix, Seibu) all in one trip.

Yes, free. Due to an account error, I have 4 extra paper tickets I am picking up at 7/11 today. They are good seats : infield reserve, first base side, 6 rows up. Not asking for money, just want them not to go to waste. If you can make it to Ikebukuro this evening (JST obviously) or Sendai tomorrow, they are yours. Just PM me.
