Last year I blogged about the different types of roommates
you could have on the road and this year I’ve decided to build off of that and
talk about some of the personalities you find on those long bus rides/trips to
those far, far away places.
On the Baseball team we travel a lot, so we really get to
see who is who on the bus rides around the country.
The Ben Hartz –
Hat
pulled over face, mouth open, snoring, drooling, oblivious to the world.
The Kyle Brennan –
Stretching
in the aisle, always hydrating from a gallon of water, anticipating the
next stop to stretch some more.
This type of bus buddy is also a frequent visitor to the bathroom
(probably due to the gallons of water consumed).
The Jimmy Topps –
The
non-stop snap-chatter. This
snapping bus buddy has purple beats and a pink headband. They are always changing their facial
expressions and sending it out to show the world.
The Thomas Richards –
The
Bathroom Bouncer. This bus buddy interrogates
you before you enter the bathroom and the number of trivia question that he
asks you is directly related to your age.
The Freshmen –
A.K.A.
the NO FUN ZONE. These individuals
have to sit up in the front of the bus behind the coaches and depending on the
size of your team have to double-up in their rows.
This one is a throwback…The Jordan Camp –
This
bus buddy wears noise-cancelling headphones but forgets that just because they
can’t hear anything doesn’t mean others can’t hear them! Therefore this person sings out loud
with no regard for others around them.
The Perfect Bus Buddy –
Wears
headphones, sits silently unless spoken to (they are very pleasant), known to
carry a stellar movie collection, willing to share snacks, always knows where
they are throughout the trip and how far away the final destination is, along
with the nearest rest stop.
I hope all of you find some of these same people on all your
fantastic trips to and from competitions during season! Have a great week and as always…GO
BULLS!!!
