World Series here we come (or at least I hope)

Well after a nerve racking 20 minutes of waiting online, I was able to purchase three tickets to Game 7. The seats aren't very good, well not that Comerica has any really bad seats there just not very close to the action, but hey it's game 7 and if there is a game 7 no one will care where I was sitting just that I was there when I tell the story. So I really hope there is a game 7, but if not and the Tigers win, I'll just use the money on a jacket or something. Well I've done some minor research on the odds of the series going to 7 and here are the results:

mathematically speaking: 31.25%
Historically speaking(1905-2005): 36.1%
Historically speaking(1952-2002): 45.3%

(Figures courtesy of http://www.aip.org/isns/reports/2003/080.html with some minor updates to make the figures current)

So I figure to have at least a decent shot at seeing the game. I haven't yet decided on when I will be coming up to the D. I think that if the series looks close and there is a game 6 then I will come up and chance it. Hey even if there is no game 7 if the Tigers win I can still have a good time with some old friends. Anyway I will make sure to post updates on the blog outline the chances of game 7 and my feelings. So everyone hope for a game 7.

Go Tigers!
