The Central Tour made it's way to Southaven Mississippi, for the 2 day USSSA World Series. The tournament took place at Snowden Grove Park, a state of the art 17 field facility. We arrived for the opening ceremonies, and the craziness ensued. Kids lined up to play Little League World Series before we had tables set up. The Louisville
Slugger booth had a long line as well since everyone was anxious to check out the new 2010 model TPX model bats. Once we got things rolling, the fun followed. The Disney XD booth was a hit, with everyone checking out the new Zeke and Luther show. The Topps Attack tent got a lot of traffic, and many kids now have a new favorite game.
Day 2 saw a lot of excitement as well, as many new games were created.
to spruce up the fun. The Disney Limbo Labamba became a new hit, and provided a
lot of laughs for everyone involved. Kevin was the big winner, clearing the unfathomable 28 inch mark!!! We know it was 28 inches because we used the Slugger bats as a guide. The games kept coming as we also played another new game, Conehead Jousting. Take a look at those pictures and you’ll know what I’m talking about.
Another newly created game was New Era plinko, where kids close their eyes and hold out a hat, while we throw a junk ball of the top of the tents and they try to catch it in the pocket of the hat. “City Boy” took home a brand new basketball for catching 2 balls! The last new game was hot ball, a version of hot potato. After an intense game with 10 kids involved, David was able to beat the competition. He brought home a brand new Junk ball and bat!
Keep following the Central Tour, as we head to Ringgold, Georgia for our next tournament.
