A beer named Hudepohl used to be sold where Iām from years ago, I think itās still sold some in the North/Mid-west. Apparently, my father used to be quite fond of it. They started calling him Hude.
Some friends hung it on my when I was in about the 7th grade, so Iām technically a Jr. I changed the spelling to Hootie long ago, it aināt got nothing to do with a band from Columbia.

Where is captain when you need him?
I am the original wife-beater/cape/goofy shorts crusader. It all began with a bedsheet for a cape and half a basketball for a disguise. After my freshmen year, the original ball (which was signed by everyone on the '97-98 team BUT Demarco) was enshrined and replaced by a newer, better versioin. I even went so far as to design a utility belt with retractable megaphone and dual foam pick axe holders. The cape was upgraded to a fine $.99 bargain bin fabric with a clasp. (it was a REALLY boring summer)
Only wore it to a couple games, and unfortunately all of my friends were to drunk to be able to come up with anything better then āBall-boyā.
The original ball is probably my single most prized Niner possession. It has the old logo painted on the front and signatures from Colson, Lutz, Watkins, Diego, and Charles.

Mine came from the best 49er baseball player ever. Loren Hibs gave him no love. Plus you gotta love the Dewey Dog
