My hat is off to anyone who managed to watch the entire MLB All-Star Game last night. The game clocked in at a whopping four hours and fifty minutes. Shamefully, I hung it up after the 12th inning. I stayed up and watched every extra-inning game in the '04 AL Championship (best series in baseball history), and I just don't have it in me to commit to a seemingly endless game in July. Here is the MUS (Made-Up Statistics) breakdown from last night. During the game:
- 100,385 babies were born in the U.S.
- 43 of those babies were born in the Bronx, but their mothers were too busy watching the game to notice.
- 4 of THOSE babies were born in Yankee Stadium itself.
- 120,529 hot dogs were bought in Yankee Stadium.
- 57 hot dogs bought in Yankee Stadium were thrown up by fans sitting in the vicinity of the 4 women who gave birth in the stands.
- Stephen King wrote 85 horror stories.
- Samuel L. Jackson filmed 23 movies.
- 12 nerds in Ohio watched all three Lord of the Rings movies in a row. The extended versions.
- 498 female acquaintances of those 12 nerds continued to not date them.
- 2 Fox Sports baseball commentators spent most of an inning asking Yogi Berra what he thinks of Sarah Jessica Parker.
- 1 satirical blogger got sleepy and went to bed at 12:30 in the morning (EST). Three innings later, the game was over.
Wake me up when it's football season.
