I went to Cooperstown about 20 years ago. Neat place.
I enjoyed the NY State Farm Museum as much as the BBHoF. I didn't even know it was there. And I didn't know that the Cardiff Giant was on display there either.

Did he sing "Idiot Wind" in honor of Bud Selig?

BTW, the song "Life Is A Ball Game" (available on Rhino's "Baseball's Greatest Hits Vol. 1") is hilarious, mixing baseball and religious references with Satan as the opposing pitcher trying to strike you out and finishes with St. John coming on in the Ninth Inning as your closer. Not sure the analogies all work but it's truly a baseball classic.

That song and the "Dying Cub Fan's Last Request" (on the same CD) by Steve Goodman are all-time keepers.
