27-FEB-2010: Smakedown in Hershey! (w/Pix)

by IRockTheRed on Feb 28, 2010 9:58 PM EST

What a fabulously fun time we all had, watching Hershey make the Bridgeport Sound Tigers look like the Bridgeport Sound Tabbies with a 9-2 smakedown. Group shots (and photos from warmups) below the jump. Identify yourself in our fun "ID-by-Number" section! :-)

I have full-sized copies of the "ID-by-Number" pix without the numbers; anyone who wants a copy can drop me an e-mail at irockthered {at} gmail {dot} com, and I'll send it along. It's too big to include here, though. :-)

You would be right! Natty, I’m kinda bummed I didn’t get to meet you! I really didn’t get a chance to meet many of you! I was too busy screaming at Tyler Sloan with Ovechwin. haha

Love that picture of Matty, but who’s the clown reading the paper behind him? Good gravy.

Also worth nothing not all the folks in the ID-by-number are from Japers’. We had a few twitter folks meet up with us at the game. I could do almost everyone’s names besides them.

Wonder who that person down in front in the 3rd pic is…

I think I know who some of the Twitter folks are. Good folks to follow, if you don’t already. :-)

#21, Pic #1 is @KellyinDC
#4, Pic #1 is @love_the_game
#5, Pic #1 & #2, Pic #2 is @sweetestofdekes

I wasn’t the only one, apparently. Look at all those crazy arms!

the caption of that picture should read something along the lines of.. “im free!” cause that’s what i’d say after a 3 hour bus ride!
