At Fifth Third Field, Downtown Toledo

Fifth Third Field is the stadium for the Toledo Mud Hens. Just in case you're wondering, the stadium was named for Fifth Third Bank, a company with the courage to have a seriously stupid name. A mud hen is a coot, by the way.

The "Fifth Third Bank" always tickled me. I recently also heard about a "Second Presbyterian Church".

Presbyterians, who often worship Mammon, have a strange tendency to number their churches. There's a Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, but they call it that because it's on Tenth Street.
Methodists, who seem to worship a sort of Whinnie the Pooh figure have the same habit.

Very well done.
