Fan Clubs I’m Considering
With the glowing success of Francoeur’s Franks or Franc’s Franks, which was on the heels of the Sheff’s Chefs success, I’m tossing about a few ideas for Atlanta Braves player’s fan clubs that I could start. Being that my seats are on the front row of section 131 in the upper deck, that’s prime real estate for player-name-themed fan clubs. Here are the ones I’m considering:
LaRoche's Roaches: They're survivors. I think the costume would be a bit ungamely, and it would probably scare the hell out of kids. . . which could be a bonus.
Pete Orr’s Pirates: Orr, Arrr, Orr, Arrr, Orr, YeArr. Everybody loves pirates! This might not be a real good one for grabbing TV time, as Pete doesn’t come up to bat very often. But when he did, you better believe they’d show his pirates. Problem here is that there is already a baseball team with a pirate for a mascot, and therefore this might get a bit confusing. Maybe they can be Canadian pirates since he is from Canada. YeArr. . A.
Horacio's Whores: We could dress up like slutty Latino women. . . really ugly sluttly Latino women (unless that’s redundant). Problem here is in the late innings of the game when drunk denizens of the upper deck start hitting on us.
McCann's Cans of Whoop-Ass: Whether he’s hitting 3-run postseason home runs off of future hall of famers, or catching another future hall of famer, McCann needs a fan club that rivals the success of his buddy Francoeur’s. This may violate the stadium code of conduct, but I can bet you Skip Carey wouldn’t stop talking about it. We could be ‘McCann’s Cans of Whoop’ for short. It wouldn’t be hard for people to fill in the blank.

Any way to combine the roach and whore theme?
That's a combination that'd definitely get you seen on the tele!
How about Langerhans' LongJohns?! You could wear old-timey red Unions suits with the snap down flap in the seat. When Ryan hits a homer (however rare that may be) you could turn around and drop the flap to reveal R-Y-A-N written across your cheeks! Guaranteed to garner at least a mention from Skip. Whaddaya think?
I like it, but I'm not about to put on a red onesie in public. . . now in private, that's a different story. I had thought maybe Langerhans' fan club could be Langer's Hans and Frans. And there could be some muscle suits underneath grey warm-ups, with references to 'pumping you up' etc.
Well, if you won't go for the underwear, then I'm not even going to pitch my Kelly's "Big Johnson" costume idea! Ha, ha! However, I do like the muscle suits...some one would have to explain the reference to the guys in the TBS booth, though.
Hola was just blogging and saw your blog and thought it was nice so I should drop in and say Hola. Anyways I would be interested in exchanging links if you are up for it.
