"$10,000. That’s a little bit of overtime when I get back home," one dad from Indiana said.
For some, no amount of overtime was gonna raise enough capital to get into the Bank.
"We look at it, but it’s out of the budget. We entered the Phillies raffle, too, and stuff like that for tickets, but it is what it is. We’re just happy to be here," fan Matt explained.
Carter, Sam and Matt traveled from Washington D.C. and, while they won’t be watching the game inside the stadium, their enthusiasm was not dampened.
The father, who traveled with his son from Indiana, was pulling out all the stops for a once in a lifetime experience.
