And Washington Has Been Voted The Most Romantic State In The Union

The readers of South Sound magazine - a lifestyle publication written for a South Puget Sound, WA audience - were recently asked to vote on a number of regional bests. Best Bar, Best Lunch, Best Kid-Friendly, etc. I’m not here to question their selection for Best Salon. I am here to question their selection for Best First Date Spot.

↵↵Tacoma Rainiers Game
According to voters, catching a game at Cheney Stadium hits it out of the park when it comes to a great first date.

↵↵Minor league baseball: for when you want all the conversation potential of meeting for a meal, for twice as long, with far less of the convenient ordering, eating and drinking to fill awkward pauses. Have nothing in common? Conversation die off? No matter! Only seven and a half innings to go. On Thursdays, impress your date by splurging on $1 hot dogs and $2 MGD.

↵I wonder if anybody’s put two and two together and suggested Cheney to Most Eligible Bachelor Tony Lindgren and Most Eligible Bachelorette Shauna Lunde.
