Recreational Pastimes. Chapter 643.
When was the last time you played whiffle ball?
Shugee is arranging a game to be played in City Park next Sunday…SunDAY…SUNDAY! It should be more fun than a monster truck rally. We will be playing in the empty field next to Pan-Am stadium, where the skate punks built a skate park in the abandoned concession stand building.
The field is relatively flat. I hope it does not rain the day before. If it does, the field will be a lake.
Wait. The guy next to me ordered some custom oysters. They are chargrilled with lump crab meat. No cheese. Just a little butter. This dish is pure genius. He offered me one to try.
Oysters à-lá King, here I come.
Will it be strange to see adults playing a rousing game of whiffle ball in City Park next weekend? The field we will be playing in is next to the field where people play rugby. I watched a match this morning. It was more bruising than whiffle ball.
Adults play all sorts of games in New Orleans, dancing in the dark, cheek-to-cheek.
Leather Tuscadero just texted me. “Did you buy the tickets for the midget wresting match in Chalmette?”
That Leather. Once she gets a bone in her mouth she cannot let it go.
I bought our tickets for the wresting match. It is sure to be a doozy.
I do not know which of the wrestlers are on the ticket. I could be Meatball, Lumberjack, or Lil Tucker, all names familiar to regular readers of this blog.
I do not know who will be matched against who at the Battlefield Bar on Paris Avenue on April 30 between 7:00PM and 9:00PM.
Have you ever tried to get in the Guiness Book of World Records?
