Final Roll of Film From the 'IIH' X-Mas Party Found!

As promised last week, the final roll of film filled with photos from the It Is High, It Is Far, It Is... caught Christmas Party was found today. I immediately had the pics developed for all to enjoy.

A lot of folks emailed me to ask exactly where Hank Steinbrenner was during the CC/AJ presser at the old Yankees Stadium last week. This is the last known photograph of 'Hanka Claus'. If you need to rent a Santa for a Christmas party or whatnot, I highly advise calling Hanka. He was awesome at it.... Just make sure no kids or Redsock fans are around....

I didn't realize just how many members of the savvy New York media showed up. Here, Sweeny Murti (in the Betty Boop X-mas tee shirt) gets his groove on....

Of course, the It Is High Headquarters comes complete with an Olympic size pool. I don't know whats scarier: McNamee, Canseco and Clemens all in the same location at once, or P-Abe in a wet tee shirt....

My dog, Booney Boggs Brosius, spent a little too much time with Scooter the Squirrel. After the party, he checked himself in the Joba Chamberlain Rehabilitation Center, in Moose Breath, Nebraska....

This shot comes straight from Alphonso's cell phone camera. Apparently, that great-big-pimp- daddy-ladies-man grabbed a few of our, ahem, hired entertainers and secured himself a secret room deep in the bowels of the IIH HQ where he orchestrated a 'Princess Leia in Slave Attire Pillow Fight' for his enjoyment. Thanks for the invite, Alphonso....

Theo Epstein showed up at the party, and was spotted throughout the evening at the bar, taking shots of Jagrmeister with Carl Pavano, exchanging hugs and back slaps, and shoving hundred dollar bills in Pavano's pockets, all the while laughing uncontrollably. We left him in the hands of Whitey Fraud at the end of the night....

As for Carl, you may ask? While we were trying to responsibly secure designated drivers and safe transportation home for our drunken comrades and bretheren, Mr. Pavano somehow slipped past our security gaurds. He was last seen getting on the New Jersey Turnpike at 3 a.m. Rumor has it he was set to try out for the Leones de Yucatan, a Mexican League team the next day....

But, according to reports, he never made it to the audition....
