I have taken to playing a lot of softball.
I play on men's and co-ed rec league teams in Berkeley and San Francisco and have a lot of fun doing it. Recently, one of the guys I play with who is in law school found out about softball games that sometimes go down at San Quentin Prison which is just across the Golden Gate Bridge from SF. Apparently the non-death row inmates (they also have that there!) who are well behaved get to organize a softball team and outsiders can come play them. So a bunch of us are going to do this in early April which should be a totally fucking crazy experience. We've already had to submit our social security numbers and drivers license numbers for screening by the prison and will be given extensive searches when we get there. This is in addition to the fact that most everyone on the team is a small-ish dorky Jewish guy. We are going to be playing dudes who lift weights every hour they can and might want to hurt us for our freedom.
Then I read this.
Now that we've added the guards and steroids and orgies to the mix I'm way more pumped.
