Rain, rain, go AWAY already!

Sheesh, what month is it?  April?  No, it’s JUNE, almost JULY?  WTF?????

The tarp on the field is NOT something I like to see.  But at Sunday night’s Fisher Cats game, we saw said tarp, as shown above.  They played exactly one inning before the tarp went down, for a rain delay.

I was confused at first, I thought that they were calling the game.  But when I got up to take a leak, I saw that they were still selling food and beer,  I had heard that we could exchange the tickets for a future game.

After I took my leak, which I’d been holding in and was more powerful than the best Delta faucets, I went to find out what was going on.  I went to the souvenir store, where they also sold tickets, and asked the guy there what was the deal.  He said that they were trying to get the game in, but no matter what happened, fans could exchange their tickets for any future game this season.

So I handed him our tickets and got seats for Monday night’s game.  Which will be a doubleheader starting at 5:30 PM, because the Sunday game never did get played.

I have a doctor’s appointment in Burlington, MA at 1PM.  But after that, we’ll be heading straight to Manchester, to beat the traffic, get a good parking space, and most important of all, score one of the Johnny Pesky bobbleheads that will be given away that night.  That will more than make up for not getting the stadium replica thingy on Friday.

Even if Monday gets rained out, as long as I get my hot little hands on a Johnny Pesky bobblehead, all is well with the world!
