IT'S NOT EASY BEING GREEN PART 3 Steamer is the BUTT of the Joke

I love themes. My favorite nights at the Curve are the special nights like 70’s night, or Country Western Night, Jimmy Buffett Night and our infamous, Awful Night. I have a blast dressing Steamer up to get into the mood. I’ve worn leather and a bandana for biker night, and got to ride in on a chopper. I’ve done the grass skirt and coconut bra for Luau and Hula Nights. Dressed as Darth Vader for all 3 of the latest Star Wars movies, and last year even dressed in drag when Jamie Farr, Cpl, Klinger from MASH, made an appearance. Awful Night has gotten a lot of national publicity over the years and I ask every season that on that night, Diesel Dawg and Steamer switch heads. There’s usually a snicker and a laugh followed by NO WAY! ARE YOU CRAZY.? The answer to that is WELL DUH, YES I’M A MASCOT.
There are so many great costumes for the Ethnic nights that you can probably imagine like German night, Irish Night and Cinco de Mayo. But last year I really got what I deserved on Scottish Night. During pre-game there were about 8 or 9 guys standing in a circle around home plate, playing bag pipes and wearing kilts. Now, when I go for a laugh a lot of the times only the fans in the first few rows can really see the gag to appreciate it. When the image is posted onto the big screen for everyone to see, the quality of the picture is lost and you can’t see the full act. But while these guys were playing an instrument that sounds like your are burping and farting at the same time, I went behind the one guy, lifted up his kilt and pretended to laugh myself silly. He actually had basketball shorts underneath, but the fans couldn’t see it, cause I was covering him with Steamer’s great big body.
The gag got a lot of laughs and many shouts of “Steamer , do that again!” This guy never blinked, he just kept on playing the pipes while I pretended to lift his skirt a few more times. A few weeks go by and another game night is starting and I’m putting on my costume in the Clubhouse when I get a call on the walkie talkie. ‘Customer Service to Steamer”. I answered, “go ahead”. Scott, from CS, asked if I lifted the kilt of a Scotsman a few weeks ago before a game. I thought I was in trouble…again. I half giggled when I told him yes, and why was he asking?
He informs me that the bagpipers are back again for a special performance and that the band leader wanted to know if it was the same Steamer in the costume that night too. Now, I thought I really was in trouble. Well, turns out, they loved it and they wanted to see if I was game to do that same bit again. Only this time, the leader, who was wearing one of those caps that looked like a huge cue tip and carrying a big baton would pretend to chase me around the dugout area. I thought this would be funny, especially if the season ticket holders, who saw the first skit, would see the kilts get Steamer back by chasing him around.
So, they are back in their circle doing the same thing and the band leader points out the guy who is supposed to be my victim. I see that he’s placed facing the audience instead of with his back to them. I think for a moment, that it was funnier from the original angle. The band leader says that the guy they have picked out for me, is the guy with the best sense of humor and he really wants to be the BUTT of the joke. I do what they ask and go around from BEHIND and start to lift his dress only to see a huge pale big bottom bare ass. I slowly put the kilt back down and fall to the ground laughing. Really laughing this time. Oh, they got me good. And, for some reason I saw it coming, but I didn’t see it coming. You know what I mean?
