I had a conference in Houston. I flew in Saturday and we hosted an afternoon workshop. A good friend I see every conference knows the guy who does the analytics for the Astros. He texted me that the guy had hooked him up with a couple of last minute game seven playoff tickets. I went straight from the workshop to the game. This was taken minutes after Houston won and was going to be headed to the World Series. This was taken in the slight lull in the excitement while they set up for the pennant ceremony. Thanks for the comments.

Looks like someone needs a break lol. I love it that with all that Houston has been through, the fans get to enjoy the World Series. Great shot. It's awesome that there's so many different activities to review in this photo.
