Employee Of The Month

In early 2011 we had a family get together at an Orange County tourist attraction, the Pirate Dinner Adventure theater.

The Long-Suffering Wife and I drove down in the (red) convertible with the top down, living the California dream. She was wearing red, I believe I was as well (might have been wearing my Angels sweatshirt), and I believe we were both wearing (red) Angels hats.

We pulled into the parking lot, where traffic was being directed into a big parking structure. We were stopped and the parking guy was sharing the Angels’ fan love with us. (The theater is just a mile or two from Angels Stadium and Disneyland.)

As the line of cars started moving again, we were waved out of line and into a parking spot right next to the front door. Having an über cool car, chilling with the top down, and proudly showing our Angels colors got us promoted to “Employee Of The Month,” at least for the day.

Windblown but triumphant, the Long-Suffering Wife posed with our trophy.

P.S. — FYI, the theater was reasonably entertaining, family oriented, with lots of audience participation. Many buckles were swashed. The food was average, but not spectacular. It was fun.
