Hillman's Hangout is still around? I know you've blogged about it before, but how do you get there? I'm going to be doing my yearly "Yakyu Summer Extravaganza" so to speak in Hokkaido this year from Aug 13-23 and I want to check out some cool places to eat and whatnot. So, any places you could recommend to me would be great and I'll be sure to include them in my articles.
As always, keep up the great work with the blog.

Matt -- it's still around, it's in Susukino in Sapporo.

My best comment is to look up the address on the site and then find it in Google and memorize it. Sapporo is a little confusing at first thanks to actually being on a sane grid system, but the Norbesa building, IIRC, had a ferris wheel or something like that coming out of it.

Why are you going to Hokkaido for your baseball extravaganza? I know the Lions are there for one series, but that's an awfully long time to spend up there... I'm hoping to be at Koshien during part of that time.

I just need to get away from things on my end here. I'm going to be visiting some family friends in Chitose so that's why I'm going to be there for a little while. And plus, I didn't really take the time to enjoy my first trip to the Sapporo Dome/ Hokkaido so I'm going to have fun this time around in large part due to me knowing more about the Fighters as a team and their players. Also, I'm going to Asahikawa for 2 games at Starfin Stadium too.
