Who feels like a Thread-Killer?

Well....after rocking the house....we found ourselves in the top of the ninth....

3 outs to go...or so i thought...

1st up....Flower Pott....well...she comes up to bat...with her rowboat oar...but after 5 at bat appearances...i was ready for her....

I had a pair of goggles under my mask....ear plugs....and one of those muti-colored umbrella hats perched atop my melon...

well anyways....seeing this...she dug in....pounded the ground a couple times with her oar....took a couple practice swings...she was ready...

first pitch....up and in...she swung...

sawed her oar in half...foul ball!

To the Lady in the Cubs Shirt and hat on the Brer_Yodelers side that caught the foul ball..SMILE!...you're on camera!"

I told you those clowns came prepared...Flower Pott Had their bat boy bring her another oar......and the pine tar rag....

anyways...next pitch...up and in...dang!...she knew what was coming...dumped a single into short right...

and out comes the clown bus...yes, the same ill fated bus that would roll over rounding 3rd this very evening....

anyway...a gaggle of clowns get on the bus...revving the engine..taking a lead off....catapulting free clown shirts into the stands with the neatest sling shot...

so....next up...Poodles...easy out...weak pop up to Brer_Yodeler...the catcher...that's me...

next up....Noodles...who hits a gapper to the wall between right and center...Brer_Yodeler...second base...gets the cut-off throw...he throws home...

we have the clown bus in a rundown between third and home...

When the clown bus driver hits reverse.. i dive through the open roof of the clown bus...
followed by the home plate ump!

I was told the ump looked like a blue shirted jack-in-the-box....every time i tagged a clown rider....including the driver....the ump would pop up through the roof...clench his fist...and yell.."OUT!"....the ham...

well...anyways....i tagged 11 clowns...i was on myway to tag # 12....who was sneaking out the emergency door at the back of the bus...

when i tripped ove Stinky's big humongous red oversized clown feets again....

when i got up...i see the sneak...sliding down the drivers side of the bus...so i throw the ball through the window to Brer_Yodeler....3rd base....who gave chase...

it was a close play....but there was no call..the home plate ump had tripped over Stinky's feets too...AND..the bus blocked the 3rd base umps view...

so the crowd started chanting..."SAFE!...SAFE!!"

Heck...I started Chanting "SAFE! SAFE!"

after all..i was on a bus with 11 clowns..and i just broke their window...

about this time...the home plate ump gets up and points to the 1st base ump...who calls "OUT!"

This tickled the clowns to no end....The driver puts the bus in gear and does a victory lap...even though they lost....around the field...with yours truly still in the bus...

I was given a bull horn...so i yodeled Queens "We are the Champions" to the accompaniment of 11...no..make that 12....the home plate ump got in the act...kazoos....

WE ROCKED!

I hope you and your imagination enjoyed the ride....
