If you're ever in the Kansas City area go to the Negro Leagues museum. Well worth it.

Re: Show off your hats!
When we visited Cooperstown in 2005, it was a Sunday in April. How do I know this? One of the souvenir shops was closed and rather defiantly explained that it was honouring the sabbath (unlike *harumph* everyone else on the street). It also had a lot of Jesus-playing-sports crap in the window, like this:
Yeah, cool, Jesus, playing b-ball with kids a good foot shorter than you. Jesus is king, my ass.

He was dunking on those kids all day.
Also I would totally get one of those if I saw it.

A friend of mine who's a basketball fan and a militant atheist had it (fuck, I may have bought it for him, now that I think of it). He thought Our Lord was taunting those kids with his reach like the doomed sinners they were.revbob wrote: ↑16 Jun 2020, 8:11pmFirst one to get the ball from me gets to heaven.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Jun 2020, 8:09pmWhen we visited Cooperstown in 2005, it was a Sunday in April.

Hello,
No worries - Copperstown sounds pretty plausible for a town.
