I'm needed elsewhere

Howdy, howdy, Rattler fans. Fairfax, the field conditions ferrett, here.

No, no. I'm not here because of today's Timber Rattler game at Time Warner Cable Field. Beautiful, beautiful weather in the Fox Cities today and I really think you should think about skipping work to come out to the game.

Look, look at this picture from our friends down in Huntsville taken from Starsboxscore with a tip o' the cap to Brewerfan.net

Conditions, conditions have been -- as we in the business say -- crappy, crappy. Stars, stars will be trying to play today and there is an incentive.

Monday was scheduled to be a 1 pm game..... Always with his thinking cap on, GM Buck Rogers declared Monday "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" Day........ Becasue it's also a school/work day, Buck remarked to the staff that he'd shave my head if he could get 1,000 people to cut school or work and take in this game. So this was the deal. Print the e-mail announcement sent out by Buck and bring it to the game and get in for a buck. If 1,000 fans make it out to Monday's game, one of them gets to shave his head and win two tickets for every remaining Stars home game.

Buck was betting most of you in Huntsville are like Ferris's buddy, Cameron, the worry-wart who freaked over everything, especially his father's Ferrari. The folks at WHNT sent it out to 68,000 people in their database.

Might, might buy a ticket on-line to make that happen.

Happy, happy day to you all and 'Go, Go, Rattlers!"
