After a bike ride to Steph’s house and back I sat down for a nice pasta dinner.  I decided to smother the noodles in a good helping of La Victoria’s orange sauce.  It was really tasty, but before I could properly enjoy it Steph showed up saying that we needed to get out the door immediately to make it to Brian and Candice’s so that we could carpool to the Sabercats game.  I ate the pasta in the car while extolling the virtues of orange sauce.  When we got to their place we headed straight to San Jose for the game.  On the way to the stadium we passed La Victoria, and Steph decided she had to try some of this orange sauce.  She definitely understands now why I like it so much, but I’m not sure if she is quite hooked yet.

At the game we got to see the over the top entrance that we missed half of last time.  It was just as outdone as last time, and fantastic.  Steph and I took some strolls around the concourse for the exercise and to get away from the noise.  Today was pompom day for the Sabercats, so we got some free pompoms.

They also had the family pack deal going on, which was 4 tickets, 4 hot dogs, 4 drinks, and 4 chip bags for $50, which is hard to pass up for such an entertaining sport with a good number of friends.  We had Brian, Candice, and their neighbors, Jeremy B, Kerry and gf, other David, Tina, Steph, and myself.  The Sabercats won by a lot, and when they were soundly ahead they tried some onside kicks.  I thought the onside kicks were pretty harsh moves against a team that was already down 20 points or so, but it was still entertaining.

Afterwards we grabbed drinks at Firehouse, a bar close by the Stadium.  It was a nice place to chat and I’m getting some great feedback on the kickstarter ideas from Brian.
