You weren’t the one doing field reset.

To be fair, neither was I on Einstein:D . The fuel alone was a nightmare though.

I don’t think you understand, that grass is literally THE GRASS. It is the sacrosanct ground that only the honorable feet of baseball players may touch. As mere mortals, we should have been honored that they let us even exist in the airspace above that grass. The last time that grass was touched by someone who wasn’t a professional baseball player or groundskeeper, the gods of baseball very nearly smote the city of Houston off the map. Confetti would have surely resulted in the end of the world as we know it.

If the fireworks were better executed, I think that would’ve been even better than the confetti. I was down getting ready to tear down Einstein and everyone was getting antsy because we had to wait for them to be over and then for people to leave so that they could fire the lights back up.
