I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

The sad truth was (at least in interviews he gave over the following few days) he was quite proud of himself......

You have two choices:

1 - be all embarassed, not (ummm bare-a$$ed) and refuse anything to do with it, which will just prolong your agony. The more it bothers you, the more people are going to get on your case about it.

2 - roll with it, have fun. it'll go away faster.

I'd rather be him than the guy that dropped two home-run balls.

Sorry about that, I should probably have watched what I posted since this is a public forum. If the censors wish to change it, I understand.
