Randy is the president of a major water pump business located in Fort Worth, Texas. A few months ago he was on a Southwest Airlines flight and struck up a conversation with the lady sitting next to him. She was on her way home from a DFW visit to her daughter. A wedding shower trip, she said. As the conversation progressed, the lady somehow got to talking about her daughters and their love for the Atlanta Braves. For their sixteenth birthday, the one thing the twins wanted was to fly to Atlanta for a game. Then when the Braves were coming to Arlington a couple of years ago, it happened to be just before one of the girls’ wedding, so that didn’t work out.
And wouldn’t you know it? Here they were, an hour flight away, and again, they were here during the week of a the second twin’s wedding and the only dates they could go were taken up with wedding stuff.
Well, let’s just see, says Randy, as he pulls out a Baseball magazine and flips to the Rangers’ schedule. Actually, there was a way, and there was a day. Oh, and I have six season tickets to the Rangers Ballpark at Arlington, says he. He offered them as a wedding present.
