Good for the Phillies? Or Bad?

Rachel and I took our son to a baseball game last night. I had scored discounted tickets, which was amusing when we realized it was Jewish Heritage Night. Nobody should pay retail for baseball!

Amusing observations about Jewish Heritage Night:

1. The electronic signs that normally display "Fastball 91 MPH" or the happy birthday listings were kvelling messages like "Sigmund Freud, the father of pyschotherapy, was a Jew" and "Jewish filmmaker Stephen Spielberg is the most successful director since the advent of film"
2. Best crowd reaction during a tepid game was for a kid with a Star of David flag, on which he'd written "Jew Gotta Believe"
3. The Phanatic danced the hora
4. The Phillies lost when Ryan Madson failed to hold the lead in the eighth inning. Why does bad stuff always happen to us?
