Opening Night Recap








Wow.

Friday, April 11th was the perfect day in the life of a minor league baseball mascot.

Here is a quick recap.

  • I was named Mayor of Fresno for the day at the Vibe event at Sports Town by Mayor Autry
  • On a side note, Mayor Autry took me aside and gave me a talking to for jumping up on the stage and not taking the stairs, apparently he doesn't know about my love of climbing(I am a bear after all!) Anyway, sorry Bubba! Didn't mean to scare you.
  • For my introduction, I was escorted onto the field by two motorcycle cops and three limousines.
  • Grizzlies Manager Dan Rohn punched me in the face after I appointed him "coffee boy" for the new Mayor.
  • Trot Nixon (Former Red Sox Player) spewed a bunch of verbal garbage at me during pre-game introductions
  • I succesfully seduced Jeff, the first base umpire while I was dressed as a girl.
  • Lost to an 8 year old at musical chairs
  • Watched the Drag Kings drop some knowledge
  • Worked the magic of the toilet seat en route to a 5 run 9th Inning walk off win.
  • Oh yea, we had over 13,000 fans.

That was without a doubt, the best game I've ever been a part of.

Drink it in, Fresno.

I spent 20 min on my blog then lost it cause I didn't know I had to sign up for the google blog thing first. In a nutshell I said how much We appreciate all the love you give all of us. That you a=re the best. and what do think of that oakhurst boy Dayton Buller. We are sure proud of him. The first blog was much better than this but it's time for me to clean house. Go Grizzlies! Go Parker! Thanks.
