I just took a look at that link I put up for The Ballpark in Arlington, home of the Texas Rangers. Quote:
Once inside, there’s a 17,000-square-foot baseball museum and a children’s learning center, open year-round. Beyond the center-field wall, the park is enfolded by a four-story office building fronted by wrought-iron decor with a subtle cajun flavor.
Hmm. I’m really curious what wrought iron “with a subtle cajun flavor” looks like. I didn’t know my people had even produced their own wrought-iron style, much less one capable of subtlety. Do they have little, tiny, subtle crawfish all over the iron? Is there red pepper smeared across everything? Is it all blackened? A big sign reading: “Rangers win: I gah-ron-tee”? The mind reels.
You make me laugh on a frequent basis. Have fun at the game. Maybe you could lick the wrought iron "decor" and see if it's really cajun-flavored.
I think you're right on with the sign. For sure. Hehehe
Ah, don't you just love PR writers. They couldn't find their ass if it was geocached.
