I've only left Shea early twice; once when we brought my wife's parents to a doubleheader in 1999, McGwire homered twice in the opener, but they couldn't hold out through game two, so we skipped out so they could get home. The other time was a few weeks ago; I was still recovering from back surgery, getting up and walking around every twenty minutes. After seven innings, I was just in too much pain to deal with the seats any longer, and/or dealing with sitting through parking lot traffic. We've left Ducks games early b/c of the little guy over the past two years, but I'd rather not go at all than leave early.
