It’s a Major Award!
Tonight we went to the Royals game with the young adults from church. It was a lot of fun, but the craziest thing that happened at the game (the Royals didn’t win, nor did they get 12 hits for Krispy Kreme donuts, much to Alli’s chagrin), was that I won the Good Sport Award at the game.
Steve taught me a while back that if you go to Guest Services and sign a piece of paper that says you’ll be a designated driver for your group, then you get a free small drink (a $3.75 value!). You also get entered into a drawing for the Good Sport Award. According to the guys in the Guest Services office, they had more people enter the drawing tonight than they ever had before (to the tune of like 590 people). Out of those 590 people, they pulled me, Shane Adams, out of the box. I was so pumped…my name was even on the scoreboard (although Alli was too slow with the camera to get a picture!). It must run in the family. My mom, when I was about 11 years old, won a car in a Foot Locker drawing from Adidas. It was a Cadillac and she had the option of having it customized by Run DMC. She wisely chose to just pick out her own.
Or maybe the Royals organization just knew that I am a member of the League of Awesomeness and they wanted to reward me. Who knows? Either way, here’s a picture of me triumphantly holding up my “major award” – a Royals rain jacket with a Budweiser Good Sport logo on the sleeve.
Good stuff.

That’s great! I loved when you called so pumped up for your big award. I love the irony of you winning a coat with a beer logo on it for not drinking. Royals fans hang in there, the Tigers were awful unitl this year too. Until then though have fun with the late inning “we want donuts” chants. I was always a big fan of winning free donuts.

Tell Alli that they won the donuts on Sunday even though they didn’t win the game. Her timing is off.
