Similarities<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both Played around Labor Day<\/span><\/p>\n

Men\u2019s Women\u2019s and Mixed Doubles<\/span><\/p>\n

Winners get their names in the paper<\/span><\/p>\n

Both have seeds<\/span><\/p>\n

Both played on lots of courts<\/span><\/p>\n

Parking can be a problem<\/span><\/p>\n

Differences<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the \u00a0Open, no one wonders who they\u2019ll get for a partner next year<\/span><\/p>\n

If it rains, the US Open doesn\u2019t go indoors and play pro sets<\/span><\/p>\n

No one has logos on their shirts or cares what you are wearing<\/span><\/p>\n

Roosters! <\/span><\/p>\n

No pesky qualification rules, one question only\u2026do you or did you live here?<\/span><\/p>\n

No dogs mixing it up<\/span><\/p>\n

No ranking necessary\u2026you can buy your racquet that day<\/span><\/p>\n

No line judges \u00a0except for everyone in the crowd<\/span><\/p>\n

No one handing out zucchinis or sticking them in your car while you are not looking<\/span><\/p>\n

Every court has a different surface<\/span><\/p>\n

Snap your Achilles? \u00a0One of the players will fix you up so you don\u2019t have to leave.<\/span><\/p>\n

Free drinks!<\/span><\/p>\n

A star beside your name is not necessarily a good thing<\/span><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to bribe someone to move to a closer seat.<\/span><\/p>\n

A 20 something can wind up playing against a 70 year old, and lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Pizza place has its best week of the year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two day rest between matches? How about 2 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

And best of all\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

It is a time to see friends and have a few laughs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please give to keep the magic going.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
