After the Cubs beat the Cardinals last week, someone tweeted a picture of first baseman Anthony Rizzo in celebration mode. I printed the picture out (which is probably some sort of copyright violation) and cut around Rizzo and taped him to a dowel rod.
I’ve named him Flat Rizzo (like Flat Stanley but more athletic) and he’s been traveling around my living room all week, harassing the cat and watching TV.
Sadly, Flat Rizzo didn’t have very many opportunities to cheer last night in the Cubs’ loss to the Mets, but hopefully tonight will be better. Go Cubs! 💙
Not being in the US or sporty in the least … I don’t know who that is but … I like that you can take him around the house with you to help you celebrate your daily achievements. Might make doing the laundry, dusting etc feel more exciting!
p.s: I took you up on the offer to DM you on Twitter. Thank you! 🙂
This is a brilliant off-season use for Flat Rizzo! 🙂
