recording of this Sunday February

23rd 2025 starting off here on the
0:10
property the Oola County Stadium which
0:14
is not used for baseball anymore but I
0:15
have fond memories of back in the 90s of
0:18
seeing the Houston Astro Spring train
0:20
here many many times for a few years and
0:23
then a couple years I worked in the
0:25
concession area here while the Astros
0:29
were spring training they no longer use
0:32
this facility and the Astros are no
0:34
longer here in this neck of the woods
0:37
but just adjacent to this the Oola
0:40
County Fair is taking place this is the
0:42
final day of it as well as the final day
0:47
of February's addition of a massive
0:49
Rodeo called the Silver Spurs Rodeo
0:53
which is huge so I might pop in the
0:55
rodeo definitely going to go in the fair
0:58
and just see where the day leads
1:00
this is no longer used for baseball
1:02
anymore though but I have a lot of
1:03
memories here yeah if you would have
1:04
been on property here going to a game in
1:07
the mid
1:08
9s I could have been working right here
1:10
at this very stand handing out wieners
1:13
and nachos and other
1:27
things oh yes long time
1:27
ago met Yogi Bearer here on property

1:35

Central Florida this is my first one of

2:00
here I'm kind of in the shade well
2:03
there's a the cloud is kind of blocking
2:04
out the Sun but it is going to be
2:06
permeating I probably should have
2:08
brought a hat but I didn't nonetheless I
2:11
could always purchase one if I so choose
2:14
I went to the rodeo last year this is
2:16
not my first rodeo that's a that's a
2:18
saying last year was my first time at
2:21
the Silver Spurs
2:23

2:26
today but I might see where the day
2:28
leads I'm inviting you to joined me
2:30
there's a ferris wheel over there it's
2:32
got my name on it shall you and this is
2:35
located in CMI Florida halfway between
2:38
St Cloud and Orlando on Highway W night
2:41
well not exactly halfway but you got St
2:43
Cloud and are kind of twin twin
2:46
towns lived in St Cloud for many many
2:49
years
2:50
downtown a lot of memories in St Cloud
2:52
CMI and technically celebration even
2:55
though it's its own entity is located in
2:57
Oola County in CMI so
3:01
STC got my STC Tattoo St Cloud right
3:05
there twin towns with CMI right next to
3:09
Celebration all at 192 in fact OA
3:11
Heritage Park right here on the corner
3:14
of Heritage Parkway and Oola
3:19
County the connecting street sign Chief
3:22
Oola
3:27
Trail off in the distance I can see two
3:27
Ferris wheels ooh nice
3:30
last time I was here on property was for
3:32
the auto auction Mika aut auction which
3:35
was what a couple months ago I lose
3:37
track of time also back in the '90s I
3:39
went to another event a punk rock show
3:42
by a band who sang a song called punk
3:45
rock show
3:47
mxpx headlined a Christian music Punk
3:50
Festival out here they used to be on
3:52
tooth and nail records which was a
3:54
Christian label I don't think they are
3:56
affiliated with that anymore or really
3:59
you know that to that crowd but a bunch
4:01
of other bands value pack which is
4:03
another really good pop HCK band on
4:05
tooth and nail but the stadium the old
4:08
Silver Spurs Arena used to be an outdoor
4:10
stadium it is the sun's bright the
4:12
outdoor Arena used to sit right in this
4:14
area and then they built the new inside
4:17
Arena again this has
4:19
been a long time ago I'm going to say
4:22
mid90s I don't even remember the time
4:24
they tore down the old outdoor Arena it
4:28
was open to the elements
4:30
you could get a nice little suntan a
4:32
watching the rodeo right adjacent to
4:34
Highway 192 kind of right about where
4:37
the fair is taking place do they have
4:39
helicopter rides that'd be kind of
4:46
neat anyway just a lot of memories
4:46
coming back from from those days oh what
4:48
is this there's like a bunch of old beat
4:50
up cars right here is this some sort of
4:52
like a crash derby of some sort I don't
4:55
know if these cars are drivable but they
4:57
have spray paint on the side they're all
4:58
damaged or maybe they already done the
5:01
crash derby but that'd be kind of neat
5:02
to see right here's the entrance got the
5:04
heavy stanions here to stop vehicles
5:07
from driving up got a ticket booth here
5:09
I wonder if they have like a unlimited
5:12
access wristband that'd be kind of nice
5:15
I one thing is for sure though the sun
5:16
is definitely pretty
5:19
warm so going inside to watch the rodeo
5:22
wouldn't be the worst decision there's
5:26
ATMs over there too maybe they only take
5:27
cash I don't know all right I'm heading
5:28
into a smoke free on vaping Zone price
5:32
of admission was $10 but because it's
5:34
the last day they're having a special
5:36
two bucks to walk in that does not
5:38
include going on any other rides two
5:42
bucks I can handle two bucks not I saw
5:45
10 I thought that's still a pretty good
5:47
deal but it was only two bucks where's
5:49
my $2 oh man I'm kind of I'm getting now
5:52
I didn't think I would be didn't really
5:54
I haven't been on my radar till right
5:56
now but I'm getting kind of excited for
5:58
fair season Fair season is kicking off
6:02
oh yeah healthy food for Miles fried
6:06
healthy goodness I'm being sarcastic
6:09
ticket booth over here let's check in on
6:11
that wristband oh look at that elephant
6:13
ears and funnel cakes deep fried Oreo
6:18
cookies oh look they do $30 you can do a
6:21
helicopter tour $30 per person for a
6:23
helicopter tour it it didn't seem like
6:25
it was running
6:27
though didn't seem like it was running
6:29
all right I thought about doing 40
6:31
tickets for 20 bucks however they have a
6:34
wristband credit 42 cash 40 bucks let
6:37
get the wristband oh
6:39

6:49
$2 to get in and then a $40 unlimited
6:53

6:56
just the vibe and the the look of feel
6:59
the sights the smells and the wonderful
7:01
sounds like look at this clown right
7:03
here look at this right here this is
7:04

7:07
see well you can see it other places but
7:10
it's more prominent that You' see out of
7:11
Carnival it's like a snow cone snow cone
7:15
place too probably could have got away
7:17
with just spending $20 on regular
7:20
tickets cuz I might not even do that
7:22
many things but just easier than
7:23
carrying tickets around as to have
7:24
something on your I'm going to head into

17:23
Ferris wheel right over here okay
17:25
there's people there's people getting on
17:26
it so I'm going to go I'm going to go do
17:27
this Ferris wheel without a risk band it
17:29
would have been 10 tickets 10 tickets or
17:34
with the wristband you're just uh you
17:36
just walk right up and get on it so
17:38
that's what I'm going to do right now on
17:39
to the
17:40
wheel onto the wheel all right this is
17:45
mine right here number seven going on I
17:49
got the whole thing to myself now
17:51
sometimes it is policy at different
17:54
fairs carnivals attractions that they
17:56
will not let you on a ferris wheel or a
17:59
ride SL attraction by yourself they will
18:02
not let sometimes they will not let
18:04
single Riders on I would say one out of
18:08
every five times they won't let you do
18:10
that I was kind of worried since I'm
18:11
here by myself but I wasn't going to be
18:13
able to but it appears as if they're
18:15
going to watch me off there closing the
18:17
chain up now and I'm about ready to be
18:19
watched up into the stratosphere on this
18:22
bad boy I think this is the taller of
18:25
the two this is the taller of the two
18:27
here we go wait is it going is going
18:29
hear the mechanism starting and I
18:33
am
18:34
officially rolling
18:36
solo rolling solo here let me flip this
18:40
around going up up up around Oola we got
18:44
Oola County we got the Highway 192 we
18:47
got the swings down there oh they're
18:50
going to let somebody else on getting a
18:51
pretty good perspective right now so if
18:54
you continue this way about I don't know
18:56
10 mies that's celebration off over that
18:59
direction back the other way this way is
19:03
St Cloud Florida which I had mentioned a
19:06
little bit earlier I love if there is a
19:09
ferris wheel odds are good that I am
19:12
going to be riding it and getting on the
19:14
ferris wheel this is a nice little but
19:16
basically I was talking about that old
19:18
stadium the old Silver Spurs Arena that
19:20
was Outdoors it was right here you could
19:22
see it off of the road of course that
19:24
was at a time before there was a lot of
19:25
videos and photos floating around out
19:28
there it was like mid90s so oh they even
19:30
have a tram look at this they even have
19:33
a tram right there going over to the
19:35
parking lot so you want to take a
19:36
parking lot tra that's fun and then
19:39
there's the there's the Silver Spurs
19:42
Rodeo going on inside that building
19:44
right there it says welcome Rodeo
19:46
fans all right zipping around now I
19:49
could have almost high five that guy I
19:51
probably could have given him a high
19:52
five and I don't know if he would have
19:55
reciprocated on the high five this
19:57
thing's moving pretty good to be honest
19:59
this thing's moving uh pretty pretty
20:02
quickly right now it's definitely the
20:04
faster of the ones on you can go over to
20:06
Oldtown theirs do not spin as quickly as
20:08
this one this is moving moving pretty
20:10
good right now here on Highway
20:12
192 high five he not the high five news
20:16

20:56
ride it's more of a walk through attract
20:59
this guy right here is gripping on the
21:03
big old wiener right there he's got the
21:04
big old wiener snitel was that what that
21:06

21:44
tape oh
21:47
that's look at this
22:10
oh all right I think I've been on this
22:13
one before one of the other fairs oh
22:27
wow it's hard to walk on this oh losing
22:27
my footing oh
22:30
wow all right this says Hans loves
22:33
Brenda maybe that's Brenda and that's
22:48
Hans yeah this is going to flop to one
22:48
side right
22:49
here yeah see
23:04
oh this thing spins around I stay off of
23:04
that then another one of these sliding
23:14
things this thing is so loud they get a
23:14
migraine very quickly in
23:17
here they don't call it the cuckoo house
23:19
for nothing what is this horrifying
23:21
nightmare fuel what is this thing
23:23
chicken
23:24
B and then you go through the
23:27
barrel no heads stands in this thing's
23:29
not moving usually it spins it's not
23:30
moving it's
23:37
broke that was it I did it crazy at the
23:37
cuckoo house I did the zipper one time
23:39
many years ago in La never again it's a
23:42
oneandone worst experience ever I am too
23:46
big non thin tall to be in the zipper I
23:52
did not like it that's just my own
23:53
personal opinion but I did not like it
23:56
I'm more of a monkey maze kind of guy
23:59
look at Donkey Kong right there Donkey
24:01
Kong holding a barrel of monkeys and
24:04
there's a flamingo up top my dream is
24:06
come true they do have a dark ride they
24:08
have the Haunted Mansion not affiliated
24:12
with Disney at all I love this one oh
24:14
I'm so happy that they had this in here
24:17
and I'm so ecstatic this is very
24:19
shocking though this is very very
24:21
shocking because that
24:23
guy oh wow so the last time I did this
24:26
last year in a different fair this thing
24:28
is a revolving attraction also lot of
24:31
strobe light warning could be some
24:33
strobe lights in here but basically the
24:36
lot of this oh look at this they
24:37
actually have a haunted mansion thing
24:39
that one's not working though sometimes
24:41
think on this don't work what's this is
24:42
this going to work place your best is
24:43
that going to work nope here we have
24:45
looks almost like Reagan from The
24:47
Exorcist right there okay uh let's see
24:51
we continue around here we have someone
24:53
in a coffin is that going to spring up
24:56
nope doesn't work doesn't work at all
24:58
and then we have a demented clown and I
25:01
think that's it however last year when I
25:04
did this at whatever fair I went to I
25:05
went to a bunch of fairs last year the
25:07
things that were in here there was
25:08
hardly anything there was more in this
25:10
one they actually they actually replaced
25:12
it with a few things there's more in
25:13
there than in the past years all right
25:14
it's official the sun is out and it
25:18
is warm out here warmer today than it
25:22
has been in the last few days it's the
25:24
sun is permeating oh helicopter taking
25:27
off the helicopter is taking off I'm
25:30
trying to decide what I want as far as
25:32
snacks go there's some kettle corn over
25:34
here but I think they have regular I
25:36
think they might have regular popcorn as
25:38
well they also have fresh squeeze lemon
25:40
all right $5 I got some fresh popcorn
25:44
delicious
25:45
crisp I'll consume this I could get a
25:48
lemonade for eight but I think I'm just
25:50
going to do this and then see how the
25:52
rest of the time frame leads on and then
25:54
if I get thirsty I'll get something
25:56
somewhere else plenty of options
25:59
two
26:07
one oh my gosh you are perfect I am
26:07
definitely going to be getting some sun
26:09
today probably not going to get burned
26:11
but I'm definitely going to get a little
26:12
little something on the nose that is for
26:15
sure here's another blue jeans item
26:19
right over here so take a look over here
26:20
blue jeans country dreams right here on
26:24
this hay bale as well popcorn is pretty
26:26
good it was fresh all right lemonade
26:27
accomplished $8 for a lemonade they also
26:30
have refills for five still trying to
26:32
decide on another food item but I got it
26:34
right here there was a line earlier no
26:37
line at the lemon now so $8 lemonade
26:40
yeah when you come to these things you
26:41
know you're going to you're going to
26:42
spend a little bit money on snacks and
26:44
food and just treats right so I'm
26:46
walking by Dipping Dots I got to be
26:47
honest I don't know if I've ever had
26:49
Dipping Dots what's it ever seen Dipping
26:51
Dots in regular ice cream frozen balls
26:53
of ice cream
26:55
-40° oh negative4 40° all right 40°
27:00
which uh which flavor do you recommend
27:02
cookies and cream is good okay brownie
27:04
batter is good we can mix the flavors if
27:07
we mix if we mix certain flavors it'll
27:09
explode oh just kidding like Pop Rocks
27:12
pop rocks and Coke is that what it is we
27:13
do have pop rocks look at that nice and
27:16
you have a dipping duck we have a
27:19
dipping
27:20
duck look at
27:23
that all right give me whichever
27:25
whatever you think I would would enjoy
27:26
cookies and cream all right I don't know
27:28
if I've ever had Dipping
27:30
Dots they're just
27:32
little
27:38
interesting all right or would you like
27:38
to try that's a lot a sample first I'll
27:41
just take whatever you get me that's
27:43
fine let's do it it's going good
27:53
okay very cold ice cream of the future
27:53
the
27:54
future right here Dipping Dots what do
27:56
you think it's pretty good it's
27:58
different it doesn't have a consistency
28:01
of ice
28:11
cream that's different I like it cold at
28:11
first couple bites on a hot day it's
28:13
great does it melt how quickly does it
28:16
melt it can turn into Mayfield ice cream
28:18
very quickly all right want to give a
28:20
little shout out to Stan and Cindy I met
28:22
them at other fairs before the Dipping
28:24
Dots very very friendly as always and he
28:27
uh showed me the way days of Dipping
28:29
Dots pretty dang good honestly pretty
28:32
tasty the contrast between on how
28:34
incredibly cold that was I mean the that
28:38
was definitely colder than regular ice
28:40
cream but then the contrast between that
28:42
and how scorchingly hot it house is out
28:45
here in the sun there's not really not
28:47
really a whole lot of shade not really a
28:50
whole lot of shade going on out here at
28:51
the moment this one's a pirate ship you
28:54
got the pirate flag up top you got the
28:57
US flag even got a pirate right there on
28:59
the very very back in okay that's the
29:01
end of the ride this is different a
29:03
turkey Sunday it's not an ice cream
29:05
Sunday it's got corn and turkey and meat
29:09
and maybe mashed potatoes that is
29:12
different never heard of a turkey Su and
29:14
right next to where they serve the
29:15
turkey
29:16
Sundays they have the strike zone spin
29:19
around thing so if you eat a turkey
29:21
Sunday you could just release it all
29:25
onto the dirt or the ground right there
29:28
he so choose the strike zone spinning
29:30
around this gentleman over here that's
29:32
working the strike zone he is in zone
29:35
the zone right now just looking at his
29:38
clock okay he's going to turn it off I
29:39
thought maybe he was just going to leave
29:40
it going but no he turned it off putting
29:42
the mil crate down he's about to turn it
29:44
off and now the strike zone slowing down
29:48

not right I'm going to get a little
30:00

30:03

30:04
when I go through here I also asked
30:06
about that turkey sunde cup thing $20
30:10
and they said the amount of meat in
30:11

30:45
having to help out with that one trying
30:48
to thread the
30:52
needle what did he say he said something
30:52
to me he said no buffing but I was
30:54
trying to trying to thread the
30:56
needle it's like it's the terminology
30:59
that I use whenever I'm on
31:02
these
31:04
woo all
31:06
right how do you get out of this I'm
31:08
stuck I'm stuck go back around this
31:28

31:44
him all right coming in hot coming in
31:44

31:51
this this is a complete mess through
31:53
here it's a complete mess this says one
31:55
way no head bumping I can turn back the
31:58
other way let me go this way trying to
32:00
go this way I can't get through there oh
32:03
I'm stuck stuck always a good time on
32:05
the bumper cars or scooter they call it
32:09
scooter sometimes they make you put
32:10
these around your shoulder or something
32:12
they didn't this time they just said
32:14
pull the pull the handlebar down that's
32:16
what I did actually they didn't even
32:17
tell me to do that I just did it on my
32:19
own accord look at these cute little
32:20
Stitch little plushies here little
32:22
Stitch keychain plushies and you also
32:24
got little cat little Hello Kitty things
32:28
like that you got Pokemon up there you
32:30
got this unicorn headwear all right kind
32:33
of thinking maybe I should go up on this
32:35
other Ferris wheel I've already done one
32:38
I should double down I should double
32:41
down on the Ferris wheels right over
32:43
here I think I'm going to go on this one
32:44
hopefully I can go on this one as a
32:46
single Rider dad you found the muscle
32:49
send him over Mom hold his frisbee the
32:53
make that what it takes dad that one
32:55
pinned the gy
33:01
it's called The Dream wheel it would be
33:01
eight tickets if I had tickets they have
33:05
tickets well you could really you could
33:06
have racked up the 40 tickets for 20
33:08
bucks very very quickly I don't know if
33:10
I'll still get my $40 worth out of The
33:13
Wristband but I'm trying trying to do
33:15
trying to do enough to at least make the
33:17
$40 wristband makes
33:26
sense every person must have a ticket
33:27
this is called theam dream
33:42
of I think I'm going to be able to go on
33:42
this because I am older than the age of
33:44
14 now if I was under 14 I would be in
33:47
need of a
33:49
responsible
33:51
companion yeah if I was under that age I
33:54
would need a responsible companion
33:58
thankfully I am
34:00
responsible on my own we're doing some
34:03
pig races over there I am in number 10
34:06
right
34:07
here got me all locked up ready to rock
34:11
on number
34:14
10 they doing the pig races I've seen
34:16
some of those before at different fairs
34:19
so let's
34:20
see all right we're moving now we're
34:22
going and my own little bubble right
34:25
here they call it a bubble but it's just
34:26
a gonda
34:37
let somebody else on so I'm right here
34:37
by the gears and the bells and whistles
34:39
and the tires still loading some people
34:41
on we went back that way now we went
34:44
back this way and now they're loading
34:45
others on so I think they like have it
34:47
go this way they have it go that way and
34:49
then they load it so I've gone back this
34:51
way this is like deja vu now I'm heading
34:54
back the other way going I thinking now
34:57
we're going to launch it around and
34:58
probably have a good three
35:02
spins three or four at least two not
35:16
just to over on them take pictures with
35:16
them the only real P we don't do it all
35:19
day we only do it right after
35:22
the they're stopping up here at the top
35:25
nice
35:38
PO check out the pig race down there get
35:38
view
35:39
the oh the big pigs are out
35:48
look as I was heading over to the
35:48
petting zoo didn't realize he'd be able
35:50
to get up close and personal with a
35:52
prehistoric creature Sparky the dinosaur
35:55
was like Tak it very kind of Hamming it
35:57
up for photos as I walk back the past
35:59
the king of the dinosaurs exhibit which
36:02
was just you don't know maybe 50 60
36:04
yards not even that far
36:07
from Endora Farms where more than
36:10
imaginations run wild when feeding or
36:12
touching the animals The Farms cannot be
36:14
held liable enter at your own risk it's
36:19
a petting zoo time now where more that
36:21
imaginations go wild now doesn't say no
36:24
food but they do not want you bringing a
36:26
hamburger in so if you have hamburger
36:28
put the hamburger away you have a piece
36:30
of pizza or a taco that's debatable the
36:33
hamburger definitely not something you
36:35
want to bring in because zebras and
36:38
camels do not like burgers is there
36:41
cheese on that I can't tell it's Che you
36:43
can feed the animals too we got these
36:45
goats chowing down over here the goats
36:49
piece of corn down there someone just
36:51
dropped hello

38:01

38:06
out
38:31
you're entering the camel Zone be aware
38:31
that the camel will grab your cup oh
38:33
here's the camel if you're not paying
38:36
attention I've run into some camels
38:39
before over the years of my travels and
38:41
I got to say some camels are not the
38:44
most friendly this one seems to be very
38:46
friendly though
39:09
just he's a good
39:09
camel yeah he's a friendly camel hey
39:24
sweetie I was incorrec in this being
39:24
petting zoo it's more of a feeding
39:26
feeding area but you can still Pat them
39:30
these two goats just do not give an f
39:32
they're facing away from everyone he
39:35
knows I'm talking about give me the side
39:37
eye right now give me the side eye not
39:40
even interested in the food that this
39:42
person is trying to tempt him
39:45
with here you go goat get it get it
39:50
Goat get it oh there's a little oxen I
39:54
think
40:03
NOP that goat has had his fill of
40:05
treats have
40:17
you I think they just like being towards
40:17
the fan right isn't that right goat is
40:21
that what you like you like being with
40:22
the the fan you're going to go say hi to
40:25
alpaca
40:48
food be nice sticking your neck way out
40:48
there look at that you're just pushing
40:50
up against the
40:56
gate this one this one's more interested
40:56
in the regular hay
41:05
I got to admit I've been on some bad
41:05
carnival rides before I've been on some
41:06
bad rides I weren't even at carnivals or
41:09
fairs and I kind of you know I thought
41:11
it wouldn't be the most spectacular
41:12
attraction ever riding on the
41:13
non-sanctioned Disney Dumbo I thought
41:16
it'd be kind of fun to go on a flying
41:18
elephant by the name of Dumbo it's even
41:20
represented with the big ears and the
41:23
flying colored Dumbo and by thoughts my
41:27
hopes my dreams completely let down and
41:30
everyone else on the ride they paid
41:32
eight tickets each granted I have the
41:34
all you can all you can utilize
41:37
wristband so it was all included in the
41:39
$40 $40 cash price for unlimited but
41:42
they didn't tell anybody that it was not
41:45
there was no warning letting anyone know
41:47
that the ride was not operational and it
41:49
was not going to be lifting up into the
41:51
air so we sput around for like 3 minutes
41:54
without being elevated into the air it
41:56
was basically Dumbo the non-flying
41:59
elephant and it just basically spun
42:01
around and around and around nothing
42:04
ever happened there was also some like
42:05
crows like there was like a dozen crows
42:07
that were probably supposed to be like
42:09
mounted on the side of the attraction
42:11
that were just like sitting off to the
42:13
side and nothing was happening with the
42:16
crows yeah imagine if you would have
42:18
paid eight tickets eight tickets like 40
42:22
tickets is 20 bucks so that would have
42:24
been 1th of your tickets to basically
42:27
nothing I mean it's just it's all part
42:29
of the experience for sure but yeah that
42:32
was uh I wasn't the only one
42:33
disappointed people got off of they went
42:35
up to the family members who were
42:37
waiting off the ride they were going to
42:38
take pictures of them on the Dumbo
42:40
attraction and they were like what the
42:42
heck was that as it wasn't that was not
42:45
definitely was not not the best I am
42:48
more entertained by this guy right here
42:50
on the stilts with the bubbles he is
42:52
definitely providing a lot more
42:54
entertainment than the non- Disney
42:55
sanctioned dumbb did however also get to
42:58
see a clown driving a sports car clown
43:01
driving a sports car and a cowgirl
43:04
riding on an animal in the vehicle form
43:07
there's also a double decker so after
43:09
seeing that there's a double decker
43:12
Ferris wheel right here which was pretty
43:14
awesome man that copter is making $30
43:17
after $30 after $30 that thing just goes
43:19
up for 2 seconds comes back down and
43:21
gets another another uh passenger yeah
43:23
clown driving a sports car he's over
43:26
here he's trying to make his way back
43:27
back over here so maybe I could get a
43:29

48:29
all right that's a different one that
48:31
one's on the 92nd
48:33
loop I guess they had one they had to
48:35
put away and it just flew off into the
48:42
sunset yeah I'm really having some
48:42
Throwbacks to the 9s even before I
48:44
started working concessions at the
48:46
stadium for a few years 91 to probably
48:50
94 I would come out here and I would get
48:53
my card
48:55
signed I don't even know where those
48:57
cards are anymore but right over here is
48:59
where the players would go in for the
49:02
Astros when they spring trained and then
49:04
few years after that was over there
49:06
pretty
49:07
interesting fact that's why it says
49:09
players and staff parking only even
49:12
though I think now it's used for soccer
49:15
team of some sort exit exit big the foot
49:19
going the right way I'm going the right
49:20
way
49:33
it's all about the merging to one line
49:33
this guy's got the right ideas on the
49:34
little scooter he's going to come right
49:37
in front of us he's going to cut
49:38
across all right here you go you got it
49:41
that's how you do it
