So I've been posting these travelogues on my blog for a couple of years now. Probably thirty of them so far. Vegas, London, Dallas, New Yawk -- all over. My Denver post (not to be confused with their newspaper of the same name) got picked up by some Denver website that is incensed. According to them I "hate" Denver. Wow. First off, I don't, and secondly, it's a humor piece folks!
Anyway, at the risk of really pissing off the Mile Highers even more, here are some recent photos from my trip. First -- some fans of this blog from Cincinnati to show that not everyone hates me. Yes, it's just four but there were two others who were called away at the last moment. Okay, now to (gulp) Denver.
I got taken to task for mentioning thunderstorms. Irate commenters declared that LA has fires and earthquakes, etc. (which of course was all news to me). So this was a once in a million occurrence? We lost. As you can see, I'm very concerned. How the hell am I going to get one of our players to be on the postgame show?? This was moments before I was stuffed in a bat bag. Losing pitchers who can't throw strikes are even more over-sensitive than Denverians. Here's the fabulous Denver Greyhound Bus Station and the flop house that resides next door -- the Ritz-Carlton.
I shouldn't include this next one because it makes it seem I actually "like" Denver. This is from Coors field when it is sunny and glorious.
Now to Cincinnati, where I fared better even though I blasted their sacred chili.
This is either the Reds' mascot or Ted Williams' actual head.
In the Reds clubhouse there is a room called the chapel, which I guess is just a fancy name for golf clubs storage closet. I now expect many religious groups to rip me a new one.
The Quacky races, ladies and gentlemen. Teams raced through an obstacle course with rubber ducks. Oh God, am I going to hear from mallard societies?
Your Quacky teams.
And finally, cornholing... among consenting adults.
Tomorrow I discuss the FRASIER living room set. Architecture-defamation groups get ready.
