It also happens to the well prepared.
This past weekend MTD, Jr. (age 22), and I (age 60, I know, its heck getting old, LOL) umpired in the ASA-Ohio Girls' 16U Fastpitch State Championship. We were scheduled for 5 games on seperate diamonds on both Friday and Saturday starting at 8am on both days.
I had taken all of the pre-tournament precautions, i.e., drinking a Gatorade every night and mass quantities of water everyday. I was on the Plate for my 8am game on Friday, and still I didn't make it to the second inning of my 10am game that day, as I spent the most of the day in the emergency room of the local hospital with dehydration. It was a day to remember. And it ended my tournament weekend. MTD, Sr.
