Going to be at least a 2 hour delay. Maybe more. Similar to our 1st game against Texas in 2021.
I was right there with ya, probably within a few feet. 17ing umps waited until our pitcher literally couldn’t grip the ball and had to lob one over the plate. Many hours later, play resumed. There was a whorn tw@t sandwich fan that thought he was hot shìt and mugged for the camera that probably never even caught his elongated forehead on camera.
2nd game vs TX
We were leaving Omaha that night after the game. I put off booking a hotel because wasn’t sure I could make it to KC if the game ended late. So started checking for rooms around 11pm and could not find anything for less than $500. I’d be damned if I was going to spend that much for a few hours of sleep. Had to call and beg. Found a single bed microtel just south of Omaha. Reminded me of a dorm room. Seems like we got there around 2-3am. Wife & kids slept in the bed and I slept in a chair. Good times, lol
Carried a raw sweet potato in our pocket for lunch if we were lucky.
I'm starting to read these replies in the voice of Rodney Dangerfield yanking on the knot of my tie.
You were lucky enough to get a potato? We got a potato-sized rock to hold in our pocket.
