Any truth to the rumor that Storm wants Rita's Water Ice sold at the concession stand???

If our fences are 6 feet high, maybe Medic can play us a visit and practice jumping over them.

I thought HMO was going to do that, and have a tanning business in there, too.

Another Math word problem. If LU had 3 poles up on Sunday, find out how many poles total we have now, and then subtract the difference to determine how many poles have been installed since Sunday (yes, an answer to this question will require a fieldtrip to the stadium, unless someone local can tell us how many total poles we have as of Tuesday).

Walked by today and I'm pretty sure only the outfield poles were up. 3 or 4? don't remember. The other poles were all out there lying on the ground next to the other 4 cement foundations. Seems like they'll be putting them in shortly.

Official announcment from the LUPD:

LU Police Department

The portion of Stadium Road near the Worthington Baseball field will be closed all day, Wednesday, March 26, 2008 for installation of lighting for the field.

(received in an email today)

So BJ or JDUB, if you are going by to take pics, walk there rather than drive.

The four outfield poles are up. The others go up tomorrow.

The thing on the scoreboard Fumble mentioned was where they put three speakers.

So Fumble got our hopes up thinking the baseball team was going to get a jumbotron?

Anyone know where Al Worthington is these days? It sure would be a classy thing to invite him back for a NIGHT game this year.

Won't they have to have the lights all burning by tonight so that they can be aimed before tomorrow's game?
