Stacy's father has been talking about the family going to a Portland Sea Dogs game for years, but we never seem to get around to it. So, we all decided to surprise Joe for Father's Day and take him to a game. It turned out to be a perfect evening for baseball, sunny with a cool breeze.
With good weather and good company, it should have been a great evening, however, there was one not-so-quiet hiccup. The moment the National Anthem started to play, we discovered that we were sitting in front of the most obnoxious fans in the entire ballpark! While we all can appreciate zealous fans, these guys were way over the top! The highlight of the evening? When at the bottom of the 8th inning, in response to the them yelling, "Take him out! Leave him in! Take him out! Leave him in!" about the opposing pitcher, Joe yelled, "Take THEM out!" and pointed to our new "friends," earning cheers from those around us!
If you look closely at the photo below, you can see one of the fans directly behind Stacy making a fitting face!
What was Sue laughing about? You'll have to ask her... ; )
All in all, it was another memorable evening to add into the Alexander Hall of Fame. Happy Father's Day Papa Joe!
