Moral of the story:

I don't care what it costs.  If you have an opportunity to spend some
time with somebody you love, DO IT.  Because you never know how
much time you have left. 

It cost me $2,398, but it was one of the best days of my life.

10 premium beers!!!!!!

sounds like a great day

you just made me cry

I am from Boston and that story brought back fond memories of games with my grandpa and nowadays games with my two daughters. Priceless!!!!!

Maybe you should have made it 12 beers, it would have only cost you .006216328% more than it did.  Only a drop in the bucket, when you break it down.  Glad you enjoyed it, sorry you team cost you.
