| Parody Written by: | Gary Main |
this is such a blast
Till yesterday I was a baseball fan
tried for a ball and man oh man
Special thanks to the Camera Crews
My name and face on the evening news.
It used to be such fun ya know
Now I will never go!
Just be glad it wasnt you
Thats what catching a ball can do!
Kick me out of the Ball Park,
drag me out through the crowd.
hit me with sodas and cracker jack,
I was told not to ever come back,
I can root, root, root from my TV
They didnt win I'm to blame!
you touch the ball, and man you're out,
of the whole ball game."
I used to go to all the games,
Knew the players by their first names;
but reaching for the ball was wrong,
6 others reaching but i got the bomb.
then the score was just four to two,
All of the Cub fans hollered BOO,
They made tons of errors and lost that game,
They lost the series , And I get the blame!
Kick me out of the Ball Park,
drag me out through the crowd.
hit me with sodas and cracker jack,
I was told not to ever come back,
I can root, root, root from my TV
They didnt win I'm to blame!
you touch the ball, and man you're out,
of the whole ball game."

I like this one a lot, Gary. Nice to see one from the guy who caught the ball's point of view. Your score 5-5-5.
You'll find me rootin' for da Cub, they never drink no bub...
Well, I'd say it's a tie. This one's funny, alright, but mine is, well, funny with a serious point, like several of my parodies. To the uninformed, I refer to "Take Me Out Of The Brawl-game." I will say this: before moving to San Antonio, I went to a lot of NIU basketball games, and I would never, ever, ever allow my desire for game paraphenalia (such as a game ball) cause me to do anything that would hinder my team from winning. From that standpoint, I'd say the fan got what he deserved -- but he cannot be blamed for the Cubs blowing game *seven*.
OK WHAT HAPPENED TO MY RATINGS? ? I have almost NO votes! SOMEONE STOLE MY VOTES. HOW CAN WE HAVE A CONTEST IF THE VOTES DISSAPPEAR?
Oh well, what does it matter, anyway? Surely it is harder to sell parody than poetry. Surely www.amiright.com is no place for talented, serious writers.
Mr. Main, at the end of July we had a glitch, and lots of parodies' ballot boxes got emptied by mistake.
