I figured I was lucky to get a parking spot right next to the gate at this evening's American Legion Baseball game between our Fox Lake Bulldogs and Lake Villa. I soon found out why I was so lucky. A Lake Villa player hit a towering foul ball that went over the huge screen and out into the parking lot where everyone heard a thud when it hit a vehicle.
This was about where I parked the Firebird, but I didn't go to see as a kid said it hit some Honda. Plus, the Firebird is in bad shape both exterior and interior and there is a problem with the engine. Right now I am figuring on driving it until it quits on me. A dent from a baseball would be no real big deal.
Later the same kid came back and said that someone had looked all over the car but couldn't find anywhere a baseball had hit. He then described it as a real ugly Corvette. Of course, an '85 Firebird did closely resemble a Corvette, but, how dare he refer to my car as ugly!! Well, it is.
When I left, I looked at the exterior and found the same rust and dents as I had when I arrived, so no harm done.
