Hey now!

Highlights from this weekend's SoxFest

The Daily Heckle, Monday, January 30, 2006

 

- Former Sox pitchers Lamar Hoyt and Britt Burns Jell-o wrestled in a kiddie pool while a growing mob of 17-year-old fans cheered them on.

 

- The Paul Konerko Kissing Booth was a big hit, even though Paulie had garlic breath from his eight-course meal at a nearby Olive Garden.

 

- More than half the fans in attendance wore shirts.

 

- Half of those shirts had sleeves.

 

- Notorious Sox fan William Ligue, Jr. was ejected for fighting with catcher A.J. Pierzynski over a tin of Kodiak.

 

- Most Sox players were so recognizable they no longer had to wear "My Name is:" nametags.

 

- Pitchers Jon Garland and Mark Buehrle were victorious after being allowed to enter the father/son three-legged race, despite protests from runners-up Willie Harris and Willie Harris, Jr.

 

- Frank Thomas showed up, claiming the check for his World Series share had bounced. Jim Thome showed Thomas the exit.

 

- In World Series highlight film, that creepy Burger King mascot was superimposed over Scott Podsednik.

 

- The Ken "Hawk" Harrelson Dunk Tank raked in a cool $395,000, which will go unreported to the IRS.

 

- Called the greatest sting operation in Chicago law enforcement history, authorities collared over 700 felons, deadbeat dads and other undesirables. Ron Karkovice was later released on bond.

 

- The crowds' loudest cheers came when a 2005 Cubs blooper reel was shown on the big screen.

 

- A SoxFest record was set as players spelled 91 percent of their autographs correctly.

 

- Joe Crede's Creed cover band, Re-Crede-Creed, rocked the crowd with a stirring rendition of "My Sacrifice."

 

- Ron Kittle introduced his "Kittle Vittles," later discovered to be road kill and Velveeta.

 

- Bobby Jenks exploded after eating a hot dog cart and hot dog vendor.

That's true, and generally WSI isn't a great place for discussion.

No, it's terrible. Unless you're an angry Sox fan and love to talk about the Cubs & WGN.

You're right, but four lefts do.

Two lefts make a U turn, two U turns make a circle, two circles make a figure eight, two figure eights make a butterfly.

 

Two butterflies make a caterpillar, two caterpillars make a grade school science project.
