That's because some dinosaurs think that you'd probably look better in a white shirt and bolo tie.

Have they removed the Fechheimer requirement there? Have they softened at all to wearing an umpire helmet?

What a backwards state....and what a bunch of control freaks running it.
Bolo ties? In all my life, I've seen
one person in this state wear a bolo tie,
and he was a rodeo cowboy. There is no longer
a Fechheimer requirement, but we can forget
wearing the HS helmet.
We're not as backward as many think,Rich. If
you ever have the time/urge, I'd love for you
to come experience some "Alabama hospitality",
and work some games with us. I'd enjoy it, and
I think you would also.

Chuck
