OMG! OMG!! OMG!!! It’s Peyton Manning! Last Saturday at the Sky Sox!
He was probably there to see his good buddy Todd Helton…
Too bad Todd retired and wasn’t at Security Service Field at Mile High. But Elway and Manning both showing up for a game in the first month of the season? It seems SSF@MH is the IN place to be this year!
Sox the Fox is this year’s Best Colorado Sports Mascot according to the Gazette’s Best of the Springs survey. Congrats Sox! It’s a well deserved honor, but I know one person who’d disagree with the choice:
Sox paid a visit to Mr. Elway during opening weekend and John looked less than pleased. Then, trying to impress a legend, Sox the Fox did his classic bit where he racks himself on the gate by the visitor’s dugout, and oh how Elway and friends got a sadistic chuckle out of that:
So there you have it. Sox the Fox rules! Except in the eyes of John Elway. Fine. Be that way. But the next time you come down we’re just going to get this gang to come extra-annoy you:
Would you look who showed up at Security Service Field at Mile High on Saturday:
He was there because his old college roommate at Stanford is Steve Buechele, the Round Rock Express manager.
So, what’s the great John Elway do at a minor league baseball game you ask? You know, the usual, sit around all game eating copious amounts of sunflower seeds…
…drinking some High Quality H2O…
…and checking his phone…
…and just shooting the shit with these two dudes (sorry. No idea who they are)
Round Rock defeated the Sky Sox 16-12 in a game that didn’t last over 4 hours. Hope you enjoyed the game John!
