Great Ideas That Never Panned Out...

[$heriff Tom]

Oh man, there are a lot of these. Call me many things, but I am nothing if not creative. I was always trying to come up with an event.

This one was not all me, I remember a few of us kicking this around, during our heydey. When we could sit in any seat, and block off however many we wanted / needed.

With Mothers Day not far ahead, how many of you remember.....TAKE YOUR MOM TO THE BLEACHERS DAY?

Geez, that would have been a hoot. We literally had a situation where we were able to reasonably expect 20 or so Moms on hand. We could have had them sit in a group, in front or to the side, they could meet each other and do what Moms do, and see us "in action."

We had discussions about wether or not to clean up our act, go all-out, warn them going in...blah blah. We talked about possibly taking them out to eat in a group after the game, etc and et al. Now its WAAAAYYY to late to ever revive such an idea, for a number or reasons.

But it never got off the ground when it was in play. Its just one idea of many I have to talk about in this thread.

i remember for Mothers day, we would break out every "your mom" joke we could think of.....

it wasn't till long after everyone stopped going on weekends that i brought my mom to the bleachers (and yes, once on mothers day)

I think back in the day this plan would have backfired on a lot of us. Many of us had enough to answer about our lives on our trips home, our behavior in the seats would have turned many an eye askew. It would have been nice to meet other Creatures' Moms, especially when as gags we would constantly be sniping, "I slept with your Mom!" at one another. Would have been nice to put a face with the name.

Could you imagine the "I banged your mom, he banged your mom, we banged your mom" gimmick going on there?
