Adam predictably does the stadium tour (which I hear you are not supposed to film for profit, only personal use, which has never stopped Adam before because he doesn't care unless it's music that can bite him in the ass - although I bet the Brewers could make a copyright claim and get the video taken down if they wanted to, but I guess his tour guide didn't care). And then Adam predictably goes to the game that evening (lucky for him the Rays - barely - won, a small light in his dark, empty world).
He walks up to Robin Yount's statue, which says Yount "became the 17th player to collect 3,000 career hits" and Mr. Smooth tries to read that and somehow translates it to, "Robin was the 17th player to hit 3,000 hits."
It's truly amazing that the vlog yesterday, when he had absolutely nothing, zero, zip, nada to show, was 34 minutes long, and today the vlog has an entire stadium tour and a thrilling, close MLB game and the vlog is 26 minutes. Don't get me wrong - they are both too long, but my gosh. With Adam, the longer the vlog, the worse you are guaranteed it will be.
If I remember correctly, he's enjoyed pretty much every single baseball stadium tour he's ever gone on during this stupid effort to see the Rays at every away field (I say stupid because it's stupid for him as he doesn't even like baseball that much). So why does he have to say in the title that it was a shocking surprise that this stadium tour was good?
While the tour may be amazing, his viewers will never know at the start, as Adam decides to go for things like the blurry long distance shots of a guy leaf blowing the mound. Zero reason for this to be left in the final product.
You know Adam is scratching his head trying to figure out why Hank Aaron is hanging up there for the Brewers, and then he sees Jackie Robinson and probably figures every team hangs them both up and has no idea there was ever the Milwaukee Braves. I think he gets educated along the way on this tour.
It's truly sad that the moment they step out onto the field, Adam's very first thought it "let me make sure I try to get a thumbnail for my vlog" instead of soaking it all in and remembering it for yourself.
The tour guide is talking and probably saying interesting stuff, but we'll never know because Adam ignores him and wanders away to the visitor's dugout (which he calls the "Rays' dugout") and films his $200 running shoes brushing the dirt around like he...was a baseball player or something?) Then he films the grounds crew working, and the tour guide is still talking and you still can't hear him. He's then amazed that they cross the foul line onto the field of play. He says "foul ball here, fair ball there" and shows it with his shoes multiple times like he can't comprehend it. At this point the rest of the tour guests might be wondering what home he was let out of to attend today's events at the stadium.
There seems to be another Rays fan on the tour, and Adam makes comments to him every once in awhile, like "we're in Randy-land now". The next time I take a tour of Yankee Stadium and turn to anyone and said "we're in Judge-land now", of heaven forbid "we're in the Judge's chambers now", I would shrivel up and die.
Then he has to point to nothing in the bullpen
He is incredibly excited about all of this. Mind you, it's the opposing team's place, not the Rays. I mean, it's interesting and always fun to be on a MLB baseball field, but you'd think it was Christmas morning and he was 6 years old. And much like a 6 year old, when the guide gives him a "Kew-pon" at the end, he uses it for a little pin for his pin boards...promoting the opposing team?
He returns 4 hours later for the game, where we are treated to Adam's play by play and color commentary like, "a double play, but the Rays got a guy in" - wow, how many points did they score on that play Adam? And of course the only player on the Brewers that Adam knows is the guy who use to be on the Rays.
The Fit By Fifty Marathon training continues as Adam decides to try the Ultimate Brat with Stadium sauce
He immediately complains about it being too small. He thought the descriptor "Ultimate" meant size as opposed to toppings. I guess he's also blind and couldn't stand there for a second to notice other people buying brats and see what size they were. The guy willing to throw away a plane ticket and buy another one can't buy a second brat to satisfy his hunger, I guess. His review of it was that it's really good, just too small.
Adam filming his personal friend (when he's not wearing earbuds), Rays "Head Coach" Kevin Cash
I wonder how much of the game he films and has to wade through to edit down? He seems to film quite a bit to catch every bit of the limited amount of action in this game. Adam wanted to go get popcorn but couldn't bear to leave his seat and miss the "sausage race", as he calls it
And he does get himself a nice big tub of popcorn with salt to help with the marathon training, and you can see it glistening as it's loaded with extra butter!
Adam then explains that he also wanted cheese curds to go with his popcorn, but they were fried, and you know that's where he draws the line - no soda, no fried foods, and no sweets.
The Brewers have men at 2nd and 3rd with one out, and instead of worrying about a sac fly to tie the game (which is probably what the Brewers are trying to do, just hit a ball to the outfield), Adam is worried about a base hit to score them both and lose the game right there. Then, I swear to God, the Brewers manager argues a call and gets thrown out, and Adam AGAIN says, within earshot of all the baseball fans around him, "The Brewers HEAD COACH just got thrown out of the game." How does this guy not even know basic baseball terminology???
Adam then says he'd "rather his team risk losing a game like that when it's down to the wire than to have a blow out with the team winning". I have no idea what he means by that as it makes zero sense, but maybe he should ask the Head Coach?
