What you get when mixing Martin, Baseball, a wallet chain and dress shoes

So last summer a bunch of thought it would be fun to get out in the nice weather and play some baseball. Since none of us are pros we knew someone would fall or make an a$$ of themselves. Should've known it would be Martin since he decided it was perfectly acceptable to play baseball in his rockport style work shoes, jeans and a wallet chain hanging down by his side. Meanwhile, the rest of us changed into our workout/outdoor play clothes.

Anyways, to the story ...I think it was our first time out and we had enough players so we decided to play a modified game of baseball (double-or-nothing). I was at shortstop and Martin was at third base. Someone hits a good ground ball towards third, so Martin spastically reacts, goes down and stretches for the ball. Naturally I figured it would be an easy throw-out at second base, so I head towards the bag. While glancing back I see what looks like Martin getting all tangled in his wallet chain, falling down (of course) and disappearing in a cloud of dust. I jog over to see if he's alright and he pops up and starts limping and laughing. All over a routine ground ball.

The end of the story is that since Martin wore his work clothes and proceeded to fall down he was now covered in dry dirt. He tried brushing off, but there was just too much. Therefore, at the end of the day his cube looked like a dust storm hit. I'm sure the cleaning crew were busy that day.
