Okay- You've been fence-sitting on the Saint Paul Saints idea, waiting for the snow to melt so that you can once again imagine the boys of summer shagging flies without slipping on ice floes. Well, the vernal equinox passed last night, so it's officially spring, and it's time to PLAY BALL!! Here's part of the original message. Please respond soon; we need to solidify the ticket number. It's time once again to sign up for the club's tailgating party at Midway Stadium with the Saint Paul Saints. Mark your calendars for Thursday, May 22nd. That's when the MHBA takes over a tailgating spot at 4:00, quaffs copious homebrews, grills and grills and grills some more, then staggers in to catch a few innings of baseball without getting rowdy enough to get tossed out. (and at the SAINTS, one can really never get TOO rowdy!) When you realize that you do not want to miss out, please send $12 per ticket (payable to MHBA) to John Longballa, 1211 Minnehaha Ave W, Saint Paul, 55104. Everyone in attendance receives a free Saints baseball. The club picks up the cost of the tailgate spot, everyone brings food and drink, and select volunteers bring grills. This has become a SERIOUSLY fun event, so do not miss it! In years past there has been cross-dressing, Pedal-Pubbing, and cheesburgers made with Krispie Kremes! Families and non-homebrewing friends are very welcome. Please send your ticket money now, so that we can plan accordingly. Thanks, John
