Thank Pittsburgh sports blog Mondesi’s House for the following photo and anecdote (partially reprinted below), concerning gubernatorial candidate Lynn Swann, received from a reader. It happened at the Steelers-Eagles preseason game on Aug. 25:
While tailgating in Philly for the Steelers vs. Eagles preseason game we hear that Lynn Swann will be making his rounds to visit the Steeler fans… He gets to me and shakes my hand and I say, “I was wondering if you could do me a favor” as I hold up the ping pong ball. “Could you take one shot for us before you move on?” [...]
He makes a few arm motions warming up a bit, eyes the red cup at the other end of the table filled slightly with IC Light, takes a breath and let’s it fly. The crowd that surrounded the table was at least 30 deep by now with Steeler fans cheering for him like he was back on the field again. Cameras flashing, video camera’s rolling, his bodyguards and marketing team thinking about the damage this might do to his campaign and then… SPLASH DOWN….
Can Swann and Rendell have one more debate? Except, instead of a debate, it’d be a game of beer pong? That would be totally awesome.
