From the outside, Joe Davis Stadium in Hunstville looks a lot like a roller rink. It seats nearly ten thousand people in general seating – nearly half of those seats are bleacher style. There is no video jumbotron. No loud batting songs. No “stand up and make some noise” cheerleaders.

It was Thirst-Aid Thursday (Thirst-Aid Thursday claims to be the hottest singles night in the city by the way) when we walked in and the plainclothesed usher, an older gal, asked us “You with Charlotte?” (meaning the other team from Charlotte, not a lady named charlotte) and we said no we are from out of town and would be happy to cheer for the home team and she said “Oh I was wondering because I haven’t seen you two around here before.” 

And then we watched shopping cart races and it reminded me of living in the Cass Corridor.
