On Saturday I was riding down off the bridge turning the corner on Driggs passing by the old stinky sleeping homeless man stuffed between the parallel parked cars when I saw the guys from the messy mechanic's shop had set up a makeshift cricket pitch in the middle of South 5th. They had a makeshift wicket set up and had a homemade cricket bat and they were using a tennis ball or something like that. This was a surprise since I thought those guys were Puerto Rican and Puerto Ricans don't usually set up makeshift cricket pitches and how the heck could I get a Puerto Rican mixed up with an Indian or a Pakistani? That's a pretty big ethnic jump there. Its not like "oh you're Guatemalan and your Honduran" or "you're Swiss and you're French." This is PUERTO RICAN and SUBCONTINENTAL. That's ridiculous.
Anyhow, these guys were teaching some of their black friends how to bowl in cricket and it was pretty funny to watch because these black guys just wanted to throw fastballs.
