Did the game in my shorts(had underarmor at least), and had that famous red jersey(for 4th of July only) which I had in the trunk...
Decent crowd and no one got on me, had some good bangers and called a decent game(we always do when we are alone)..but I sure felt like an idiot...

Before you get on me for doing one-man, the pay was decent - 82 bucks.

Hope you guys get a laugh..glad the camera's (to my knowledge) weren't rolling...
My only question is....did you pay the beer fine?

I have a small white rubbermaid box/basket that I keep an extra pair of pants and an extra shirt and a variety of other extra equipment in case I forget something. I'm always diving into it at least once a season.
