FriarFest: Picture Fest

Dex showing off his skills leading off of first base. A small Padres fan tries to figure out what the hell he is doing. Jon meanwhile is stealing 2nd base with a face first slide

It was pretty cool that they let you throw off the visiting teams bullpen mound. Funny because so many fans were throwing the balls into the seats.

Dex and Jon show Giles how to climb a fence and rob a home run.

With all the cool stuff to look at, Dex still wants to look into a maintence storage area. "I thought this was supposed to be all access!". Reader tfast gets a big ol' kiss from some green mascot.

Some green mascot!!!
Some effin' green mascot!???  Know you not Thunder?  He's the greatest active mascot, period.  I say we dump the Friar to Lake Elsinore A ball, and bring Thunder up.

I knew he was the Lake Elsinore Mascot
but that's about all. People kept calling him the Philly Phanatic

Thunder vs. Friar
I want to see these two throw down. Thunder isn't restricted by MLB codes of conduct so he gets away with much funnier/raunchier acts.

Doesn't that dirt look beat up? Apparently it's missing it's "top coat". Real men would play on concrete.

OUCH!
Man, is that really second base?  Looks a little dry huh?  That's the guy dirt you slide into and get up with a big fat cherry from hip to knee.

I'm all about the Sambas. Love the Ah Dee Dahs.

Dex's lead off
Okay see how Dex is standing, imagine only his feet are moving and everything else is perfectly still, even the crazy look.  Dex's feet would shuffle away from the bag, back towards the bag.  It was so funny.

Lil Padre with the deke
The next frame would show the little dude with a backdoor pick while Dex is caught leaning.
