Ridiculous Item of the Day: Minor League Baseball Team Announces "Eliot Spitzer Night"

We'd like to commend the Macon Music for their quick work in announcing "Eliot Spitzer Night" at the ballpark to take place on June 13. As part of the promotion: (1) the team has invited former governor Spitzer to throw out the first pitch, (2) client (or fan #9) will receive a free Music prize pack, (3) any fan named Eliot, Spitzer or "Kristen" or someone from New York will get $1 off admission, (4) wire taps will be placed throughout the ballpark, (5) ATM's will be available for cash withdrawals "not to exceed $5,000 per hour, (6) Any fan who has resigned their position will be given $1 off admission, (7) The 871st fan will receive a gift certificate to the Macon Music team store. The team does have one issue to rectify. They promised to give away a free trip to New York and one night stay in the Mayflower hotel, without realizing that the Mayflower hotel is in Washington D.C.
