When it comes to plug, gimme a Brown's Mule any day of the week. 'Course, I no longer chew, so it's academic.

Just curious... do you chew tabackky ?Originally Posted by W1GUH
Hey!!!! C'mon...nobody's mentioned the iconic old favorite....
I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Wish I could get a good selection of brands around here. But I'm thankful we have anything at all. I used to chew quite often. These days I limit it to maybe a couple times a week or so. The other issue is that chew is very expensive these days. A pouch of Red Man loose leaf costs close to 6 bucks. A tin of Skoal 5 bucks and change. I remember when i could get the stuff for under a buck. Guess part of it goes to nanny's "sin tax" which is probably not the worst thing in the world.

I used to like to hang a huge plug in there every now and then. These days it's too expensive to stuff in a golf ball sized plug. Gotta go with a pea sized plug nowadays. I don;t make Dykstra's kind of money... LOL
Incidentally, when I think back to baseball and tobacco I think of left hand reliever Sparky Lyle with that huge plug in his mouth. It was his trademark. he used to advertise Levi Garret. I remember one time when the Yanks had to pull a pitcher from the game. Rumor was that he aaccidentallly swallowed the plug and was feelin mighty sick. Last thing you want is to swallow that nicotine plug.

No...never could take it. That experimentation with Day's Work and Apple 'way back when was enough!

Yea...that's why it's sometimes disturbing to watch a ball player with a big wad. Always afraid that there'll be a freak play that causes that to happen. Guess, tho', they're all pros & it can't happen.
If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.
