Bonghitters get Stoned
On the night of MTV's Video Music Awards, Rolling Stone staffers chose to play softball instead. It was a pretty shrewd decision for two innings, as they took a commanding 6-1 lead against the Bonghitters in Central Park. But then High Times' slugging stoners rallied for 6 runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings. Three more runs in the 6th made the score, 10-6. Rolling Stone didn't score again.
Web editor Mike Gianakos and Jeff Hemley had 2 RBI each, and Rick Reta (8-3) got the win.
The Bonghitters (10-5) finish the 2006 season on Sept. 9 vs. Billboard/VNU.
