I collect Capps after watching sign autos/ talk to kids when at Crawdads . He's a large guy and would get on knees sometimes for the kids . Not saying others don't sign but his size is a factor .
My kids / families and in-laws coming to swim and later go to game - sold out so I hope I do well

Morning guys
I went to my bi-monthly Veteran Breakfast yesterday and one of the Guys Ron Altman gaves us a nice presentation on some ships and a few planes he was either on our had flown in the war. And then we found out it was Blaine's birthday(85TH) on the 8th of this month so we sang happy birthday and the place we go presented him with a huge cake just for himself.

I was in Cleveland last Saturday and went to the Tigers/Indians game. In Tigers apparel, of course. Beautiful weather, great stadium, packed house, mostly awesome crowd. Very good game.

Kind of late in the game, one section over, a couple idiots on both sides of the equation shot some words of stupidity back and forth. It was a bit amusing, but also quite silly. Anyway, I get to chatting with the guy behind me (Cleveland fan) to see what the stuff in the other section was about. This guy ends up on a bit of a speech about how to act as a fan of the visitors. Now, I totally understand avoiding acting obnoxiously - not only as a visiting fan, but at all times - and each situation allows for its own level of banter before you cross the threshold. And as I'm sitting there, having paid money to the home team to get a seat, drinking a Dortmunder Gold (Cleveland beer), having purchased an Indians jersey for my son at the ballpark, etc; this guy tells me that it's ok for me to clap a bit and cheer my team on, but that so much as standing up while cheering is poor ettiquette. WTF? That's when I turned around and tuned out the goof. When a bit later, Cabrera hit a go-ahead double in the 10th, I think I offended the poor guy's sensitivites. What a *******.

Overall, Progressive Field is an awesome place to watch a game. And if I weren't there solo, I can see the surrounding area being a fun spot to hang out: hopping bars, casino, etc. I'll be more than happy to get the chance to go back sometime. Cheers to Cleveland.
