Mini-thread of a few personal reasons why I believe @robertreidryan was so absolutely perfect at his job with the #Astros
1) FAN GIVEAWAYS. The quality and quantity of these ballpark giveaways increased by about a million percent.
2) He made an effort to TALK to fans and it didn’t seem fake. This man takes a genuine interest in the fans and makes them feel truly special. When he came to talk to us I said, “dude take my seat!” and he said nah I’ll just sit on the steps. This was for an entire inning!

3) THE BEER SELECTION AT MINUTE MAID PARK!!!! #RootRootDrink
As soon as he got hired I started hounding him about improving the beer offerings. This pic was from 2013, and looking back to the craft beer selection then to now is staggering.

4) He truly appeared to love his job, love the city, love the fans, and love the team. The energy and intensity he had every time I saw him around the ballpark was infectious. @robertreidryan you did a fantastic job and you will be MISSED.
