At the Houston Astros game on Saturday, my row was selected to win a coupon to Whataburger (a Texas burger chain) and appear on the big screen during the 7th inning stretch while “Deep in the Heart of Texas” was playing. If Texas ever secedes, I’ll use this as proof of citizenship.

 

I’m wearing the grey shirt, not with sunglasses, in the middle. Ted Frank is standing next to me (red hat), trying to take a Jumbotron selfie. And to boot, the pitcher threw ten strike outs so everyone in the stadium got a $3 off coupon at Krogers for Nolan Ryan Beef.
