This story is so weird to me from start to finish.
Hard to believe no one spied on him to try to figure out the location. Hard to believe no one else figured out how to do this.
But hey, rock on for genius and marketing.
I’ve known about this since I played little league in the 70’s. My teammates and I thought it was BS because we live very close to, and have been fishing at, the area where the mud is harvested. We thought it sounded too far-fetched because we live in such a out-of-the-way area. When it was proven to be true, we thought it was the coolest thing ever! That is, until Mike Trout arrived on the scene.
