Off topic - but funny
 

The Portland Beavers AAA baseball club has had some funny promotions but it will be hard to beat the one on Aug. 2. It's "Mullet night"! Everyone sporting a mullet (male or female) gets in free that night.

I don't know if that includes players. :eek:

Beaver's?

Why don't they let everyone with a beaver in for free...

They do - it's called "Ladies Night". :D

Hey - no one ever said I had any taste.

You could just see this one coming! :)

Oh, you guys......

C'mon, you're just disappointed Dan beat you to it.

I am not making the following up - I swear on Earl Strom's whistle. My wife said she heard on a morning radio show that the Beavers were have a promotion this weekend in which they would have a van filled with doctors outside the stadium to give anyone who wanted a prostate exam a free one. You would then be let in free to the game. This was so bizarre, I checked their website and there was no mention of it. It's got to be a joke.

I'm still just trying to get past the picture of a beaver with a mullet.

...would that be giving or getting the exam?

As long as it's neat........

GW men's basketball had all of the coaches wear bowties for a prostate cancer awareness night last year. I'm guessing that offering free prostate exams out on the street would have attracted more press.

More than if they had done the exams in the van, fer sure.....:eek:

Hey - if you're gonna expose yourself, you might as well go all the way. :)

You should have seen my girlfriend in college.:D

Enjoy the free game Mark! I can't believe no one threw that out, of course we are all distracted by the beaver talk and that's not uncommon. :p While we are on the subject, A friend of mine said that at the minor league field in Witchita a few years ago (after the Larry Eustacy stuff) had a night where you got in free with any Iowa State shirts and Natty Lights were 1/2 price.

Hey - even though I don't have (and never did have) a mullet, at least I have enough hair for one, unlike some other people I know on this board (no - I don't mean Juulie). :)

Ouch - that one might hurt in the morning.

Right, Dan?

Fastener diagram numeral????? :confused:

Maybe it's a suggestion for how to attach proper numbers to the jersey if the original numbers aren't the right size.

You're on the right track.

It is a suggestion...

Fastener, diagram, Arabic numeral.

We better be careful before the moderators take this one down for being racially insensitive. :p

Yeah - we wouldn't want the Romans to get upset that we weren't using their numerals. We might get a visit from Tony Soprano. :eek:

Can I nominate this for post of the week? :D

Also, any chance Meadow would visit along with pops?

As long as Uncle Junior doesn't show up waving his gun, I wouldn't mind. ;)

BTW - I nominate Pauly Walnuts for the best name on television.

When I first moved to the northwest years ago Oregon State beat USC for the first time in years, but the game was really close. OSU had built a lead and then hung on for the win.

The next day in the Spokane Spokesman-Review, the headline on the front page of the sports section was "BEAVERS OUTLAST TROJANS".

I showed the paper to my lovely bride who responded with, "Well, Duh!"

A while back there were 2 girl's HS teams locally, both Catholic schools, that fought it out every year post season. One of the teams was always slightly better, they even won state 2 yrs in a row. Local newspaper headline after the second win was

"Girls from XXX go all the way again!"

:)

Quite a few years ago I was watching a UCLA-USC basketball game on TV. One of the UCLA students was holding a sign that read, "FLUSH USED TROJANS". :D

On Tuesday, May 8, the Brewers are partnering with WITI FOX 6, Froedert & The Medical College of Wisconsin, and the National Prostate Cancer Coalition to conduct free digital (DRE) and PSA blood test prostate cancer screenings, from 7a.m. through 3p.m. A mobile clinic vehicle will be set up in front of TGI Friday's restaurant, located on the northeast corner of Miller Park. In addition, the Brewers will provide two tickets to a future Brewers game to every person screened. Parking is free and no appointment is necessary.

Well, there ya go.......

My entry for dirtiest line in the history of TV:

"Ward, I think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night".

(Johnny Carson had two whoppers too!)

I guess Johnny Damon would have gotten in free before he joined the Yankees.

Dear Basketball Board regulars:

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

I hear they are letting all Blue Jay fans in free as a consolation prize for...well, you know, being Blue Jay fans.
