Baseball games can get pretty hot. We sit in the stands and complain about how hot we are, but just imagine how hot our kids are in the dugout with polyester pants and shirts on. Not to mention that they just came in from being on the hot, dry field. It’s only fair that they should be rewarded for entertaining us with one of these awesome outdoor portable misting fans to cool down the dugout.
Heck, if you have a travel team with 12 players, each parent could pitch in $12 bucks and get one. It’s a small price to pay for the comfort of those hard-working kids, and they’ll love it!
But back to the comfort of the parents. We feed them, drive them, pay for their games, and love them, so shouldn’t we be comfortable too? I mean it’s only fair.
I just went to my son’s game on Sunday and the temperature was 107 degrees. We all would have been so happy to sit near one of these things. Let’s face it…in 107 degree weather, one of those hand fans is not gonna cut it, and there are still a lot of hot days left so order one today!
