If you liked Zachy's sales prices before, you'll love them now.

Zachy's sent an e-mail bragging about this. Fine wine and baseball just doesn't sound right to me...

...Well, I don't know, DavidG, I bought that 1918 Haut Brion and the Red Sox have won two World Series since.

That's fine, Jim, but you're not going to drink that 1918 Haut Brion at the ballpark. It would be like drinking Cheval Blanc out of a styrofoam cup at a fast-food joint...

At the risk of sounding like a curmudgeonly snob - both baseball games and fine wine are demanding of one's full attention. You can't do both well at the same time.
