I had to post this, as it made me laugh this weekend.
I had gone to the Pawtucket Sox game Saturday afternoon.
I was sitting in the centerfield bleachers.
If you've ever been there, there is a concession stand in the bleachers just to the right of centerfield, with a flight of stairs connecting the two. At the base of these stairs is a Pepsi maching.
During the middle innings one of the Pawsox players hit a homerun out to centerfield. The ball was headed in our direction, but landed squarely on the Pepsi machine, and bounced to the top of the stairs.
I knew that there was no chance of me recovering this ball, because it had bounced up into the concession stand level, away from the bleachers.
What had me laughing hysterically was that at the exact moment the ball bounced off the Pepsi maching, a fan carrying a tray of snacks and drinks turned the corner around from the concession stand onto the stairs and the ball hit the tray right out of his hands.
The look on his face was priceless!
My brother and his wife were looking at me like I was crazy, laughing at what they thought was "just a homer" until I explained what had happened. I only wish I had a video of that.
