10/12/15 Hey Angie,

Jamie sent me your way. In a nutshell I've known Jamie forever, so naturally she was the first person I went to when I had questions about Houston and Astros culture. I'm working on a documentary series based on baseball culture in different cities. We won't be shooting any footage until next summer, but we'll be gathering whatever info we can before we embark on any trips.

We're looking for any information that you might have about Astros fan culture, food at the stadium, bars, inside jokes, etc. We do plan on interviewing people close to the culture too, people that work in the stadium, possibly season ticket holders, anyone that can help us truly get to know the people dedicated to the team.

So any knowledge you can share, or advice you might have, is absolutely appreciated.

Thanks in advance. Brian

Angie- Awesome. I will think on some stuff and let you know. I don't anymore but I worked at the stadium for 3 years doing retail in the big team store. I do know a season ticket holder if you want me to ask her if she would like to participate.

I think what youre doing is awesome my friend and I are going to all the stadiums over time. We do one trip a summer so far we have seen 6 together in 3 summers

10/13/15 Brian- That's awesome, what other stadiums have you been to so far? And thank you in advance for your help, looking forward to any insight you have.

Angie- St. Louis. Atlanta. Wrigley and us cellular in Chicago. And Milwaukee. And Colorado when I was younger. And I went to see Biggio be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Family took a 2 week road trip to see it.

10/15/15 Brian- Thats awesome. I lived in Chicago for a while so I've been to both of those stadiums, and I've been to St. Louis, and of course Rangers stadium.

Pretty awesome that you're family took a 2 week trip just to see that. What's next on your list?
