A Summer of Baseball

LG (#1) vs. Samsung (#2)
2013/09/07 @ Jamsil Sports Complex [잠실종합운동장]

This year, for the first time since I came to Korea, LG is actually good. They'll bounced around the top three spots all year. Therefore, we have all gone to a number of baseball games to show our support. It's fun to go to the stadium, drink some beers, eat chicken, and just scream along with all the fans. I love the never ending positivity that comes along with a Korean baseball game.

We actually made it to the baseball game eventually, but it was pretty hectic to get tickets and get in. I didn't take any photos. We sat in the Samsung sections and LG lost. Bummer. All in all, it was still a good day.



How to get to Jamsil Sports Complex:
Jamsil Sports Complex Station [잠실종합운동장 역] (Seoul Subway Line 2) - Exit 5 / Exit 6
Walk out exit 5 or 6, and the stadium is right in front of you. If you are buying tickets at the stadium, I would suggest turning left out of the station, and walking around to the back side of the stadium. The ticket booth back there is way less crowded. Plus, there is a great barbecue joint that sells pitchers of beer and has good food.
