The other night was an average night in the world according to me. The kids were in bed and I:
*Plopped onto the couch and kicked my feet up on the coffee table,
*Sipped my glass of wine,
*Noticed a baseball game on tv,
*Felt my eyelids begin to droop as I slipped into a semi-comatose state. Baseball has the magical abiliy to transform me from a chatty and energetic KathyB! into a catatonic lump in nothing flat.
It's a wonder Pat doesn't watch it more often.
***
KathyB! What a shame! What did the park used to be called?
Pat: What are you talking about?!
KathyB! You know... Like when they changed Candlestick Park to 3Com Park... I like the old, traditional park names much better. Besides who can even keep up with all the names. Didn't they change Candlestick to Monster Park...?
Pat: That was years ago, Kathy. It's still Candlestick. And what are you talking about?!?
KathyB!: (a tad of annoyance creeping into her voice) Chan Ho Park. What was the original name?
KathyB!: (thinks to herself) For cyin' out loud, this isn't rocket science. Follow along hubster.
Pat: (an equal amount of annoyance in his voice) What.... ?!
And then, he saw the light. His face burst into an ear-to-ear grin.
It would be fair to say he looked smug.
Pat: The pitcher is Chan Ho Park. They're playing at Yankee Stadium.
***
Final score of the 2009 World Series?
Pat: 1
Kathy: 0

LOL!!! I love listening to baseball, so soothing.
They should have a law against confusing things like that, just like people named Major shouldn't be allowed to join the military.
Totally understandable misunderstanding. LOL Of course, if he ever has a park named after him it will be the Park Park. :p
Classic! Very fun. I may have to tell that one to my hubby :)
What kind of name is that?!?!
That's funny! Being from the bay area, I was bummed about the 3 Com thing.
I love going to baseball games but on tv ... let's just say that if I wasn't home, I'd be bored easily.
It's the atmosphere of being at the park ... whichever name it currently is ... and the people and the whole adventure ... that makes a game for me.
And, I think you get a point for even remembering what name any park is now adays ...
baseball puts me to sleep too. Chan Ho Park....sounds more like a place where hookers would bring there johns.
Now that is funny. I would have thought the same thing.
It was the wine talking. It had to be.
Ditto- MUST have been the wine. Cause it couldn't have ANYthing to do with the fabulousness that is KB!
(And come ON, who is Chan HO anyway???)
You are such a hoot!
Damn Yankees.
Oh wait, that's not what your post was about...
Whoops!!! Go back to sleep, Kathy B.!
What I love about this is that it is like the most famous coversation ever about Baseball... Whose on first.
Tammy: 0 as well - I would've jumped to the same conclusion - even without wine and grogginess...
I have a couple of those fopoux moments too and even 30 some odd years later he still brings them up to get a laugh.
Hilarious!! See, this is why we fall asleep and don't even try.
You know, some Asian names are actually last name first which could lead you to confuse this guy with a request to a hooker valet service: Park ho, Chan.
Yes, wine....everything is better with wine...and I'm REALLY hoping you all drank a LOT of it before reading my joke.
One is sad to hear about the tragic case of baseball droopiness.
That's hilarious! Thanks for the giggle today!
I laughed out loud at this post. This sooooooo could have been a conversation at our house!
I totally have similar experiences in our house, only it's football and the steelers.
It doesn't matter how much sleep I've gotten, I pass out instantly when there on.
Yeah, most conversations don't go to well when you are half asleep. LOL!!
That's funny!!!
Chan Ho Park?
That sounds like a restaurant.
Too funny! Sounds like something that would go on in my world.
ROTFL, however, since we're talking baseball, I have to take off my own cap, place it over my heart, and say, like a dedicated fan of a team that....well....needs....help, if not just an outright enema....I still love my KC ROYALS! World Series....Royals....one day! (Yep, that was all wine induced, too, but I'm awake, possibly delusional, and I DO love my ROYALS!)
Now that's the solution! I must watch baseball to fall asleep! Who knew!
Nice work on the Park, KathyB. You're a trooper for even trying to engage in the conversation in the first place, especially when so tired. Have another glass of wine for being such a good wife. :)
He didn't have to enjoy it so much:-)
names, shmames, the YANKEES WON!!!
HAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! You made me choke on my oatmeal.
See what you get for trying to seem interested in their junk?!? Love it!
just like people named Major shouldn't be allowed to join the military. Work from home India
Chan Ho Park Who? Now that is too funny!
Hugs and Mocha,
Stesha
ROTFLMAO!!! I love it! Totally sounds like something I would comment on. ;)
Yup, put on a sports game and I'm certain to be out like a light in no time!
Who can keep up with all those names anyway? Got to hand it to you for trying!
ha ha ;)
Freedom Debt Solutions
Hilarious! He totally deserved that smug look...
That would have been me too! I don't watch baseball either!
I would've been saying the same things. I can't keep track of that stuff either!!
Meh....sometimes you win, sometimes you win better :)))
Meh....sometimes you win, sometimes you win better :)))
Hahaha! That's awesome. I don't think my husband likes it when I watch football with him because I ask way too many questions.
Football does it to me... I mean, come on, how long does it take to score some runs.. I mean, goals, whatever... snooze...
first of all.. hockey does that to me.... hey I do live in Canada but it doesn't mean I have to love the sport. *L*
Second... I would have made the same mistake. ;)
Too funny!
Golf and Baseball always make me sleepy!
Bahahahaha! That's fantastic!!
How're you doing these days, lady? I've been thinking about ya.
Deja vu. I think I just lived this here.
BTW...just gave you an award on my blog.
Stupid sports! They always trip a good wife up. That's why I always have a trump card up my sleeve: "Well, at least I still root for the same teaam I did as a girl." Granted, I don't know much about them.
LOVE this! LOL
ROTFLOL...
When they built the Bricktown Ballpark here in OKC they were going to call it The Southwestern Bell Yellow Pages Bricktown Ballpark...umm..no.
That is just too funny, my hubs thoughts so too. But, I mean, come on, you were half asleep - he could have cut you some slack!
We have an arena here in Orlando that has changed names so many times that I can never remember what it is called... Right now it is the Amway Arena. Really, AMWAY?? Like in laundry detergent?
lol.... but smug? really? Like thats a huge deal?
eh, let him have it :)
mmmmm.... glass of wine...
ha ha! this is hilarious!
that weird phase of sleep where you can still hear the television is murder on me!

This, dear KathyB, is exactly something I would do. In fact, during the world series, I asked a fellow coworker, a macho sports fiend at that, who was playing in the world series. He now thinks I am seriously inept.
