Hot Chick, BIG ticket to BIG game too much too soon?

[Dash Riprock]

I got the number of this hot chick (early 30's) at my gym that I've talked to off and on for a while now. We chatted, I teased her a bit, cracked a few jokes, and then said I wanted to get her number so we could have coffee. I got it and then immediately split (happened this Wednesday). I was going to call her on Sunday night to say "hey" and set something up for a mid-week drink BUT...

I also landed (2) awesome seats to the Colorado Rockies vs. New York Yankees ($130 worth) here in Denver for next week and really want to take her. She's been in the states for a few years and is from Croatia--my guess is she's never been to a major event like that before. I also know her ex-boyfriend and he's definitely not the sporto type.

Is this too much too soon because we haven't even had a "real" get-to-know-each-other-type date yet

OR

Would this be something that would be super cool because it's unusual and has all the "fun" elements like people, buzz, noise, excitement, drama (the game), etc. I would also not tell her exactly what we're doing, but tell her how to dress, when to be ready, etc., just to toy with her a bit

DJ thoughts please.

Dude, just go to the fvcking game with her.

Take her. Call her up, let her know you got tickets a few weeks ago and one of your friends bailed. If she bails too, then go ahead and really invite one of your friends.

Take her BUT..........

Don't try too hard to impress her at the game.. Infact, let her try to impress you.. You've already DHV by bringing her to this game. Don't mention ticket costs.. And FORCE HER to Qualify herself to you once you are at the game.. it's a great time to build LOTS of comfort..

Use the old but time tested "I think you're sexy but I want to know what there is to you beyond your looks. Tell me something interesting about yourself"

Remember, you're the prize, the king, act like one.

Good call, Charm. I like it. I pretty much can't stand "standard" dates anyway--good oppt'y to sharpen the DJ skills, etc. as we'll be together for at least 4-5 hours. PLUS, I'll be pretty engrossed in the game.

Any other DJ thoughts appreciated.

UPDATE:

I called, chatted, hit her with some C&F, told her I had tickets to *something* and wanted her to join me. She said "sure."

Funny thing is this girl is kind of my opposite; into saving the world, a Taosit, always bikes, no car. I'm more the weightlifting, NFL, UFC-watching, risk-taking (business and $$) kind of dude. Should be interesting. If opposites do attract we’ll be locked at the hips.

I was in a LTR, took a few months off, and now am out again. Trying to get the "game" back and sharpen up after a year or so off.

Is there a "first date" short list on this site somewhere? Something like Top 7 Things to Remember When on a First Date with a Hot Chick...or am I going to have to go from memory?

Any links appreciated.

DJ's are ALWAYS trying to get better at what they do...ALWAYS.

probably would be better to do coffee first, and if that goes well then go to the game. when is the game; is there not enough time to do both?

 

[Dash Riprock]

Obsidian,

Game is this Wednesday. Yeah, 95% of the time coffee/drinks first would be great but this is a HUGE event here in Colorado so it happening Wednesday night, only. I really wanted to take her because it's going to be a very wild, fun, exciting time and a lot of our conversation can revolve around the game, the stadium, etc. Almost more of an un-date. Her ex-husband is a real granola, hippie, Tao-like guy--and I'm more well, my sports favorites are Brain Urlacher, Ken Shamrock, and Chuck Liddel. So I'm going to be night and day compared to what she had.

It's kind of like going long on 1st and 10; we'll find out how compatible we are right away. Either way we'll have fun--plus she's secondary next to the actually game. [GO ROCKIES!]

I do need to brush up a bit on first date game -- any good links/pages you'd recommend?

 

[Charm]

First date game is simple. Use regular kino action, touch on the knee, brush of her hair...


Lean in to smell her and be bold about it. Tell her you like her choice of perfume. Ask her about her goals, interests, challenges, wishes, etc. Keep things light and fun, tell stories, etc.

Damn, don't take her to the rockies-yankees game, take me!
