Plate Conf WTH?

[Little Jimmy]

I worked a couple of games way out of town this weekend and my partner was obviously the "local hero". He knew everything about everybody and wasn't shy about telling me about each and every player on the field . When I was plate guy at the pre game he felt the need to interrupt every few seconds, joking with the coaches and basicly stepping on everything I was saying. And when he was working the plate for a later game, he came to the pre game conference eating an snowcone, crunching through the whole thing. He was still working on it right before the first pitch was thrown.

Of course all of these things may have been a local tradition. When in Rome...
