For JM (Mostly)

I will write about what it is like to go to an MLB game in a minor league ball park in the AM but I wanted to post three pictures of the inside of the sardine store that JM posted on the game thread.  

There's one in the Lisbon Airport that I had time to see during my escape from Spain to avoid original Covid 19.  

1) In 2020 it looked like this:

2) This is a throne made to honor sardines in general. I used to use it as my background image for Zoom meetings. 

3) Here is a wall of sardine tins: 

I guess the idea is that you buy a tin from the year you were born or married or whatever. 

I couldn't imagine at the time that this would be a successful marketing concept, or at least successful enough to pay the rent on a retail space in a busy airport but apparently it was.

And finally, because this is a baseball blog, here is a picture from today's game. I like the juxtaposition of the marketing slogan "clean power promise" under the image of Aaron Judge. 

 As I said above, I'll write about the game in the AM.
