Big Ben's Dilemma, Fashion Show Fitting

Today was the day that my teammates and I went to 'Springfields', the store that is sponsoring the fashion show to try on our outfits.  Ben and I got there at the same time, and we were both pretty interested in seeing what kind of options we would get to rock on the runway.  Ben had a little better foresight than I did, as he was worried that they wouldn't be able to find any clothes to fit his near 7 foot frame.  Obviously this wasn't a concern for me, finding stuff for a 6'2'' guy is not nearly as difficult.  When we got to the store, our teammate Moshe was already trying on some gear, and the lady began helping Ben and I.  The lady gave me a pair of jeans, a nice little red button up, and a black jacket to wear over it.  I went and tried it on, and after trading the jacket for a bigger size, I was ready to go, in and out in no more than 10 minutes.  Well, for Ben, it wasn't that simple.  The first outfit the lady gave him looked like it would have been small for even ME, so you can only imagine what it looked like on him.  The second outfit was much better as she traded a button up for a screen t-shirt, but one problem remained...the jeans.  Ben offered to wear a pair of his own to the show, but the lady said he had to wear something from 'Springfields' since they were the sponsor.  After trying to wear them normal, then trying to roll up the bottoms and go with the 'high-water' look, then simply sagging, we came to the conclusion that Ben might look a little goofy on the runway.  I reassured him, 'bro, don't worry about it... no one from home is going to see you in these clothes... until I post them on facebook HAH!'  Hopefully the ladies working at the store appreciated Ben's attitude, because I know a lot of people who would not been nearly as flexible in that situation.  

As a reminder, we play Galil-Gilboa again, in a cup game, this Thursday at home.  Hopefully we can get a few things straightened out, and then we will be ready to go.

I will update the blog after that game, and let you know how we did.
