good morning everyone! Great news: Fitzie is BACK (for the next two days)
I have two bits of bad news:
You’ll once again have a substitute hoddler-in-chief early next week.
Fitie is currently under the weather
Because I’m under the weather, and also because it’s 9.05pm ET, I don’t have a tonne of energy to write this hoddle. I’m hoping to do a fun music one for you all tomorrow because you deserve it.
Today I’m going to share the Norway rowing celebration at Citi field. Last week I showed you the Tartan Army at Fenway, so it’s only fair we spread the love a little bit.
Here it is:
It’s a pretty good celebration, all things considered. You get a lot of people involved who don’t even have to stand. And, unlike Scotland’s Tartan Army, their team hasn’t yet suffered back-to-back embarrassing defeats. Who knows, they still have to play France.
Regardless, this is a lot of fun. They also took over Times Square.
I still have to update the track of the day playlist.
Fitzie’s track of the day: Row Jimmy, by the Grateful Dead
