We're going to our first baseball game~
M: It's the Yakult Swallows S: Yes
M: You remember Simon had a shirt that had a big swallows on it S: Yes
M: Like, the bird Swallows. S: So we're Swallows junkies, and we're gonna be going to a Swallows game
M: Yeah, they're not doing too great this season, but anyways
we're gonna cheer for them, we're gonna cheer our GUTS OUT
M: See you guys there!
S: What other inappropriate jokes can I make? (LOL SIMON)
M: Very very busy!!
M: Oru(?) Jingu Stadiummmm~!
M: Simon S: Huh?
M: Meh! S: Weh!
S: In this line you got to wait, and then you pay 500 yen
And you like stick your hand in and you win something random.
I'm not sure what I'm gonna win. I'm hoping it's a new car
S: HHHAAAAAAAAAUUMMM huh oOOHHH
S: Oho!
S: Alright what did I win? What do I win?!
What'd I win??!?!?!?!?!
What did I win.. (THE SUSPENSE)
Guy: Go! Go! S: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH HEEYYYYYYY I got a little cutie thing!!
S: So this team is called the Yakult Swallows because Yakult is a drink and you're supposed to swallow it
So it's kind of like making like brand awareness at the same time. That's kind of like saying like the New York times-
-Deep throats. because you have people that like try to give like anonymous information
S: So... in....
that... (crickets chirping)
Is an equiv...ah...
S: Go Swallows!
M: So if you come in here, you can bring in your own outside food and drink
So we brought in some High Balls
You can bring in beer or whatever and then they have a little cup station
Where they will pour your drinks into cups and then you can take it in a little paper cup fashion
M: You go to a game in North America, there's no way you're bringing in outside things
And then they'll charge you, like, 16 dollars for some skanky
Disgusting old beer from a tap
Skanky is the word? No I think skunky was the word
S: Good job girl! M: Anyways. I meant to say skunky beer
S: Who you rooting for?!! M: Swallows
S: Are you a Swallow fan?!
M: I'm a Swallow fan S: Are you a Swallow for life?!! M:This is going somewhere bad, I just feel it
S: Oh those are great seats!
S: So what kind of food do you get at a baseball stadium in Tokyo?
Yakisoba!
Our friends are going for chicken. I don't want chicken today. I want noodles!
S: Though I should show something different, because last time we had Bon Festival we also showed yakisoba
I just really love yakisoba, like really really
M: I mean, that's way too good for a baseball game. What the heck
S: Share with me Ducky, share with me!!
M: No
S: If you were to think about what you should drink at a baseball game, would it be beer?
Whiskey?
Or red wine? Yes I did get a glass of Red wine
Super cheap tasting red wine, just the way I can afford it
S: So we're new to this we're not gonna be able to sing along with them
But they have a song for every single batter.
Crowd: Let's go Yamazaki!!
S: The last guys name was Sakaguchi
No, Sakamachi M: Sakaguchi
S: Sakaguchi M: -And Yamagachi
S: So the last guy's name was Sakagachi, Sakaguchi. Last guy's name was Sakaguchi.
S: Woah this wine is some STRONG WINE
S: STRONG FORTIFIED WINE
S: So this is the same as Martina's, except anted up because I got the Omon type so...because I...
S: STRONG WINE
STRONG, FORTIFIED WINE
S: This is the same as Martina's except it's anted a bit because we got the omelet on top
So this is the omo Yakisoba. Let's see how this tastes
Oh man! Oh my god
Why get hotdogs, when you can get yakisoba like this
S: Aw those cruchy bits are so delightful as well
S: So what we got here is a nice, I- I don't know what measurement of beer
This is but it's a pretty decent amount of beer
S: They poured it fresh from the keg that they carry on their back, up and down a hundred flights of stairs
This was 750 yen, which I would say is Roughly like seven or eight bucks or so
How much is beer when you're watching a sporting event, I don't know, but 750 seems not bad
M: Your umbrella's too big! S: Make it rain girl! Make it rain!!
M: So whenever the Swallows score, you have a little umbrella, and some of them have a little swallow, sparrow on it
and they have a little, like, Swallows dance
Which I don't understand but somebody let us borrow their little umbrella
This is such a lovely feeling.
S: So I didn't necessarily understand everyone's umbrellas
I just pulled out my umbrella, but everyone laughed at me because my umbrella was too big, and it wasn't the right colour
But you know what I show team spirit, Swallows all day every day
S: Be a Swallower for life!
S: Whoa! This is probably the closest I've ever sat to live fireworks
This is great
M: I've been to a lot of Blue Jays baseball games when I was a kid, cause Simon and I agreed that like
The Blue Jays was part of our childhood, you know? There's a simple feeling, but now there's like...
M: Fireworks, and dancing, and like theme songs to every person, and like yakisoba, and fans, and little umbrellas and
M: This is an amazing experience! S: It's so fun! M:Wow
S: Yeeeeeaaaaahhhh
S: Wonderful
Crowd: LET'S GO IBERO!!
WOOOOAAAAAAAAH
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH M: lelelelelelelelele
Crowd: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
S: UMBRELLA
S: I can't believe we actually recorded a home run!!
S: Hey, this was super fun. I had a great time we were here for
4 hours and 20 minutes I had an amazing time
I highly recommend you check out a baseball game here in Japan. This was so fun!
S: What's everybody waving to?
M: Hey, if you're gonna come to Japan, don't just come for the food
Make sure you come to see a baseball game
Specifically
The Swallows!
The Yakult Swallows!
It's an amazing experience
Get your umbrellas ready, cause we're gonna rain on you!!!!!!!
S: WE WON THE GAME!! M: WE WON IT!!
