Friday night - Red's Game!
One of my friends found this "deal" for the Red's game - 8 seats for $80 (+online shipping charges) AND a free pizza from LaRosa's! Sweet, right? Here's the catch(es):
1 - You can't bring the pizza in the stadium (no open containers, including pizza boxes) This means stuffing your face with pizza right outside the gate. Super attractive.
2 - Nosebleed seats. We were three rows from the top. It was a great view, but my vertigo definitely kicked in a little bit. I've been super spoiled with great seats every time I've gone to see the Reds.
However, it was a great game, AND a surprise (to me) to see the AWESOME fireworks show after the game. Definitely didn't see that one coming. It was about 20 minutes long, and pretty freakin' sweet.
Saturday night - Arnold's!
My roomie Steph and I went to Arnold's with my friends Hinal and Koral on Saturday evening. They are exchange students from India, and we thought Arnold's would be a fun place to go since it's the oldest bar and town and has a great vegetarian spread.
We were not disappointed! The food was great, we got to sit in the courtyard, and we had a blast.

Then we went to Devou Park in Kentucky to get a good view of the city. It's pretty blurry, but I was able to get a picture of the Red's Screen FROM KENTUCKY.
Check back tomorrow for my picks for Best and Worst Tastes of Cincinnati.
You can see where I was sitting in the second picture, top right hand corner. Awesome game and the Reds won!

I kind of like those high seats, great view and less distractions of people walking back and forth in front of you.
That said I won't pass up the odd field level tickets that come my way.
Totally missed you both days at Taste, but I bet you can't avoid me for the entire run of Fringe.
