The PooTwinx Dive

I just wanted to add that while the watching the ball game at the new Nationals' park and eating Ben's Chili Bowl links and chili cheese fries with PooTwinx and his wife was great, the highlight of the night came in the top of the fifth when San Diego hit a deep homer about 1 row down and 1 aisle over. PooTwinx, at the sight of this shot, reacted like Costanza at the sight of a fire. He flies over his wife pushing her into her seat runs to the next aisle with cat-like quickness, quickly pushing away any and all children hoping to make their dreams come true by catching a big league home run, and then at the pinnacle of his glory, as he is jumping the last row to get to the homer, he suddenly disappears behind the row of seats he was jumping, having caught his foot on a cup holder and then tasting the glorious concrete face first. All his effort undone by a cup holder. Needless to say, the lady who did nothing to earn the ball except turn around and pick it up got to it first. I think she was handicapped as well. It was awkward when he came back.

That was a lot of fun and very painful. The chili dogs were ridiculous.
