I'm not going to do this story justice, but here goes...
Saturday, Vin Scully was talking about bad jobs baseball players had before becoming baseball players. He mentioned that Eric Karros said his worst was cleaning up after races at the Cajon Speedway.
Vin then said that that sounded pretty bad, but not as bad as "cleaning up after the elephant parade."
The randomness of this comparison, I thought, was pretty funny in and of itself. But then, my wife said, "That's what I was thinking."
Where are these elephant parades, and how does one get tickets?
