So Astros knew they weren't going to be great this year and wanted to appease the masses. They gave me a 5% rebate on my tickets in the form of a gift card that can only be used at MMPUS. I was thinking that if I can get enough interest here I would use those gift cards to get a suite and we could all join in. I think I will need about 20 confirmations and we would all have to agree on a date (preferably later in the summer so I have time to make sure the game is available, etc.) So....any interest? At all?

I could make the drive up to Houston if it's a Friday night game. Sounds like fun!

Sounds like we can make it work. Let me know what day you prefer.
August 10-11 August 17-18 September 14-15 September 21-22
I am putting two days there because Noe mentioned it would be best for him to be here on a Friday. So the first day is a Friday and the second day is a Saturday. If that doesn't work for everyone else, then screw Noe (kidding) and we can do it on a Saturday. Let me know what the group prefers and I will get with the ticket lady.
If there is enough interest, also, we can probably put together a golf outing or a trip to St. Arnolds or one of the other breweries.

No preference on date for me, but if I had to choose a date, Brewers or Pirates.
August 10-11 - Brewers August 17-18 - D-backs September 14-15 - Phillies September 21-22 - Pirates

I can't do the 10th and the 11th is problematic for me. Coincidentally, I have two tickets (I think in the Boxes) for the 10th if anyone wants them.
I've got tickets for the 22nd and 23rd already too, which means those dates would work for me. I'm pretty sure the other two weekends would be ok.
The 26th would be the last National League game. I know it's on a Wednesday, I'm just sayin'. It could be quite the party.
