Disclaimer: I posted this story on Strike Zones and Endzones also. Just saving you from reading it twice.
So, Thursday night I headed to Nationals Park for the game and thanks to the glory of corporate seats, I had six tickets. Because of changing schedules (and the fact that they were playing the lowly Pirates, I ended up with three extra tickets.
On the way to the game on the Metro, we ran into three baseball fans decked out in Red Sox gear - hats, sweatshirts, the whole nine. As a Yankees fan I was obliged to give them a friendly hard time. We started chatting and it turned out that this was their first time going to the new Nationals Park and they hadn't bought tickets yet. So in a moment of good nature, I handed over my three extra tickets for free and told them to enjoy the game.
Fast forward a few days to Sunday. I was in the car on the way to the Yankees game (I'm a two city girl) and was sitting in a bit of traffic heading into the garage. While we were stopped, the woman in the car in front of mine jumped out and ran back to my window. I rolled down the window, thinking she had a question or was lost, and instead she handed me an extra parking pass she happened to have, saving me the $20 it would have cost me to park in the garage.
Moral of the story...karma exists and Yankees fans aren't all douchebags.

That was incredibly heart-warming.
This is so much more heart-warming than the vehicular homicide from yesterday.
Yes, the "I didn't mean to hit you with my car, you were supposed to move" tragedy. Someone needs their emds adjusted. Hopefully the prison nurse will get it right.
Nice logic.
