I will vouch for Luke's story, (LDUB), but, I must tell you the parts he left out on purpose.

He gets to ALL his games 2-1/2 hrs early because his wife does'nt let him drink or smoke at home. He has found that by getting to the field that early, he can usually get a six-pack and a cigar in before game time. This has contributed to him being tossed out of 5 ballparks for ironing his pants in his underware, when the teams showed for batting practice.

One game, he threw out 7 players and 2 coaches by the 3rd inning and then asked them all to come back after he had sobered-up in the 4th and realized that he would'nt get a full fee if it was an incomplete game.

As bad as that game sounded though, it could of been worse if he had done the bases. He once threw the first baseman out of the game because he kept kicking dirt on the bag, Being the neat freak he is, he finally got tired of pulling his brush to clean the bag and , well, that was a differtent game, different time and place.

Keep up the good work, LUKE.
