Radio

So three years ago I started playing baseball with a vintage baseball league. It’s been crazy since. We play by 1864 rules and use period equipment. They gave me a nickname, King Kong, and I’ve built a whole persona around the name. Since joining I’ve played twice on a minor league field. Been interviewed on tv. Mentioned in local papers. Today I was interviewed on a local radio station. If you told me 5 years ago that I would have these experiences I would have said you’re crazy. I’m so glad I joined the league.

That is so interesting! I’ve never heard of that – I have family who do military re-enactments (Civil War), but had no idea there were leagues that did basically the same thing with sports.
