Dalton said:Once a Fenway (one of Bret Saberhagen's comeback attempts) the Reds were playing the Whites. By the end of the 2nd the sox were up like 6 or 8 to nothing when the first out of town scoreboard pops up. The Yankees are losing 2-1 in Toronto. The whole of Fenway breaks out with "Fuck the Yankees". Its the closest I ever came to crying in a baseball stadium.
Beautiful

which sox?
yeah people think we have spontaneous yankees suck changs but usually they are inspired either by the scoreboard or a yankees fan being an asshole in the stands.
one time another friend and i were standing in the bleachers during batting practice, not paying attention, and she got hit by a BP HR and some asshole grabbed the ball and wouldn't give it to her. she was in pain so they took us to the medical room and gave her some ibuprofin and we ran into the governor who was using the medical room bathroom. we both had prominent political buttons criticizing policies she supported. i am telling this story cause then the sox gave her a brett saberhagen signed ball for the huge bruise on her hip.

Stinky feet will throw you off your game. Fact.

True story? During Desert Storm, I had a white man's face with the letters U-S-A shaved into the back of my head and I also had two lines shaved in my eyebrow.
Thank you Vanilla Ice.

Red Sox.
When I was 9, a teenage girl with down syndrome punched me in the face as we fought for a batting practice ball at Tiger Stadium.

I actually have a story that I really regret involving Yankee Stadium, the bleachers, two drunken asshole Red Sox fans and a police escort out of the stadium for many of us.

Remind me someday to tell you why I have a bleacher seat from Yankee Stadium someday. No police escort, but it includes a really drunk Asian and a homeless guy with a fresh three-pack of underwear!

Varitek said:that is awesome. for the hundreds of games i've been to, half in prime bleachers territory, i've never gotten a ball except one from the bullpen catcher after a game once. never a game ball. last season at a yankees game a cano HR landed in the seat behind me, it may have hit me in the head had the guy next to me not deflected it. this girl behind us got it but of course you've gotta throw that shit back. fenway ushers are a bitch though, damned if you do, damned if you don't. you don't throw it back, the crowd will lynch you, you do, you get kicked out. i warned her, so she gave it to a guy who wanted to throw it out, he got kicked out.
Varitek said:
where did you come from anyway?
Dalton said:
I'll send it to you as soon as I can find it. My mom just moved and a lot of her stuff is in storage. I looked for some pictures a couple of weeks ago but couldn't find them.
It looked awesome cause I have really dark features, so the letters stood out well.

He loves baseball. His interference instincts kicked in and he tracked this down. Just like Dalton perks up when bras or boobs or ass or whiskey or Jews are discussed.
