Me too.
When I was a kid, the local railroad would rent the city park for a day in the summer and all the railroad employees and their families could use the park/swimming pool/ball fields/bbq areas for free.
The different departments of the railroad would assemble teams and have a softball tournament. My Dad was a player (switch hitter) for one of those teams and before his first at-bat he stepped up to the stands and made a courtesy call to the spectators that they might want to move their vehicles before one of them got damaged by a softball. The spectators all laughed. A few pitches later he cranked one over the fence and into a vehicle.
On his second at-bat, no one was laughing. They were all scrambling to move their vehicles.
Almost forgot....I miss Kevin already!
