Toledo's Wish List
The Mud Hens have been very good all year so we’re asking for a few things
A new attendance record with millions of fans
A big name player rehabbing maybe once a home stand
The greenest turf with bases so white
Beautiful video boards with lights so bright
Celebrity guests on any given date
An automatic tarp that pulls its own weight
Hardworking interns and endless opportunities for sponsorships
A private plane, a luxury charter bus for use on our road trips
We would like our season ticket holders to have massaging seats
We could use hundreds of home runs, stolen bases, and other amazing feats
Warm April night games resistant to frost
Giveaways big in value and low in cost
The funniest theme nights and best promotions ever
Entertainment that is top of the line and just plain clever
Merchandise sales through the roof
Everyone outfitted in Mud Hens attire as proof
Friendly rivalries with our fellow opponents
That result in the best of web gem moments
Five solid months of perfect weather
Great defensive plays that flash the leather
Anthem singers who are always on key
Come from behind wins after a big rally
Weekend attendance on weekdays
And definitely no rain delays
Kids running the bases in orderly fashion
Foul balls caught in gloves with passion
Autographs for every girl and boy
Players love to give our fans joy
We’d like every day to be an Opening Day
And for the umps to say what we think they should say
Oh and to finish with the best record in the league
Sorry if we happen to beg or plead
That’s about sums up our list
We don’t want to, but have to insist
That you stop by for a game or for any reason
And of course, to all we wish a great season!
Sincerely,
The Toledo Mud Hens
