So we are down south for our last ditch chance at Texas. Never been down here before (I first thought we were coming back to Tealtown, but my GPS actually got me to the right place, which if you know me is quite a feat).
So we notice many things besides the overnight's downpour:
A. First team to the fields get to clean out the left over beer.
B. Guys named Birdie actually play slow pitch softball.
C. When a slow men's team wears the same uniform, they will score 15 runs in the first inning. Drink a beer, and they will no longer score.
D. Working four hours before the first slow pitch men's game makes men swear.
E. Fans will pimp their softball hitting prowess and beg to be added to the roster.
F. The Cinci Mob is not a new Cincy Doom offspring, but their uniforms were just as cool.
G. The play area was tucked in the back, and after visiting and noticing the amount of beer left from the previous night, not only were some kids not supervised the night before, but some are probably still missing!
H. 40 feet pitching mounds and invisible temp fencing make me wonder what's so wrong with places like Pick Central that they can't get a tourney there (hey, Warren, i think you sold me a line of B.S. last year!)
I. Rumpke serves walking tacos!
J. No matter what field or inning we play the Got Bustos team, their lead-off hitter will get thrown out on a bang bang play where it was evident from a Russian satellite that she was safe (keep running em out!).
K. The Got Bustos 3rd base coach's entire dress ensemble was worth more than my Honda Odyssey.
L. A plate of chili cheese fries and a 32 oz beer in between games was a monumentaly bad idea (more on that later)
M. The overhead balcony is good for heckling (me, not the other team, mind you)
N. In southern Ohio, there are no bathrooms!
O. The choice of bathrooms at Rumpke was one without toilet paper and whose water was so dark and foul it looked as if a zombie vomited inside and forgot to flush. The second was a large ashtray and the third was perfectly clean except for the slippery mud as you walked in.
P. when you leave the park for the bathroom during a lighning delay, the entire team will know you went for #2 because of course the game will start early (and your DD will freak out and overtext you about entering in a sub from the other team in the book!)and not a gas station within 25 miles has a working bathroom!
