We were blessed this week. I posted a request on-line for 2 reserved seats to the Oxford Regional to watch the Rebels play toward Omaha. I received several responses for inflated prices on average reserved seating. After sitting on the ground near the third base hill in last year's Regional, anything would be a welcome change. One particular response to my ad caught my eye. It was for box seats just behind home plate. To my surprise, a doctor from south Mississippi sold us his box seats for face value, no inflated scalping. These are the best seats in the entire stadium just behind home plate where the coaches and scouts sit, etc. It has been fun watching the Rebels thus far as they have reached 2 - 0 in the Regional with wins over Sam Houston, 14 to 5, and Southern Mississippi, 4 to 0. We go for the championship tomorrow with the opportunity to advance to Super Regionals to play the Arizona State vs. Nebraska/UC Riverside winner.
