For the last 3-4 years, our umpire association goes to a local minor league ball game as a group. This includes food, beverage and a seat to the game.

A few years ago, a BU had a different angle then our section did on a play at 2B. A few of us stood up simultaneously made a safe call while the BU was standing there with a hammer.

We were a little on the loud side. This umpire (A ball, many rooks) was probably thinking it was about time the concessions stopped serving beer for that game.
