Geezer's Diary Part 42 - Cardboard fan
Description (Dublin Core)
Chris Bateman is back with more musings during the pandemic. In this 'diary entry', he discusses his purchase of a cardboard cutout version of him to sit in the stadium in his stead. He details his pros and cons for this purchase, and the thoughts of his friends and colleagues on the matter. It seems like a fun, if expensive, way to remain involved in sports even while COVID-19 has eliminated the possibility of normal sporting events. As a lifelong San Francisco Giants fan, it's hard to get behind his choice in team, but I appreciate his dedication.
