Found on another forum:

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

It is a bad paint job of an altered bat.

A horrible job of painting, and just as bad a job of altering. Look a little closer towards the handle, where the barrel starts its conical shape. You can see a slight difference in the shaping.

Well, I know that... But it's what's wrong with that paint job that makes it so funny.

The paint actually looks pretty good, except for one amusing detail.

All graphics have been applied in reverse fashion. They should read from handle to barrel, not the other way around.

And, BTW, painting it makes it altered.

I know it does. I came across the picture on another forum and laughed my @$$ off! What a moron.

You can clearly see the raising of the paint or decal below the "A" in "Freak." It's a no-brainer!

Especially since Miken does not use decals.

Maybe it's a left-handed bat.

Definitely! A lot of the posts here are pretty funny, but this one actually made me laugh out loud at work.

Was the guy going, "Hey, look what this dude did to my bat! I'll get one over on Blue for sure! Great work, huh?"
