In a bizarre case of being too literal. . . humorously. . . LINK Just How Big is Your Ken Griffey, Jr? A Dodgers fan involved himself in a battle of banter with Cincinnati Reds star Ken Griffey, Jr. at a recent game from near the Reds dugout at Dodger Stadium. The fun-loving fan was within earshot of Griffey all game long, and posted a blog on his MySpace page detailing the events that took place between the fan and the oft-injured Griffey. So I started with the basics: YOU SUCK..SHOULDN'T YOU BE ON THE D.L...TOO OLD FOR CENTER....that kind of stuff. Well, by the 2nd inning he was looking right at me giving me the looks. When he walks in from the 6th inning he decided he had enough and came over to talk some smack. He called me some fat references which was hilarious and then he told me I couldnt touch the threads on his jock... This is the point at which this 'conversation' takes a turn for the weird. The fan started heckling for Griffey to "show him what he's got," that Griffey is all talk. After the 6th inning he walks out and stops to talk to me holding a brown paper bag in his hand. He motions to throw it to me and I told him no, I know that trick. He laughs and says catch it, so I put up my hands and he tosses it over. He wouldn't leave until I opened it and when I finally did, the whole place erupted with laughter. Griffey throws me his jock...
When I saw this thread, I was going to post the Vernon Wells thing in a few days since it was a great reminder. That was one of the greatest things i've ever seen.
