When is Petco going to get this?

In my quest to visit every MLB ballpark I took a trip to Safeco last night after work and stumbled across the gem the Mariners call the Nintendo Fan Network. Tried it out and all I can say is that it was very cool. Nintendo needs to roll this out in every ballpark.

Nintendo doesn't eff around

What’s DS penetration among Padre fans? How many GLB’ers own one?

And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life...

I got one

and a Wii.

When I took the Safeco tour, I discovered that the majority owner of the Mariners works for Nintendo. So I think that might explain part of this.

Exactly

The guy working the Nintendo booth (who was incidentally a big Padres fan), said that next year Safeco might not renew the naming rights and it will become Nintendo Field.
