Boston Red Sox owner John Henry finally married girlfriend Linda Pizzuti in a lavish ceremony over the weekend. And some of the wedding favors were, in this idiot’s opinion, in poor taste. And I don’t mean that in a nasty, awesome sort of way, either. From the Boston Herald, via Slanch Report:
On the way out of the old ballyard, all the revelers received bobbleheads of the happy couple.
Many, many, of the parting gifts, we’re told, were left behind.
To be fair, that bobblehead doesn’t look like Linda at all. And…aren’t bobbleheads supposed to be one person?! Two people on one bobblehead surely violates some kind of Mexican labor law. And besides, how is anyone supposed to re-gift this thing, anyway? Uh, it’s Hugh Laurie with glasses and Sela Ward. It’s a great gift for old people. Because their vision is bad and they’re gonna die soon anyway. Wow, that sounded funnier in my head.


When reached for comment, John Henry was quoted as to saying “Well, Linda will be a human bobblehead on our honeymoon, HEEEEYYYOOOOO!” and then he proceeded to high-five the reporter.
I’m going with creepiest bobblehead ever.
So does this bobblehead blow 9 run leads to the Orioles?
@Enrico – No. Linda’s just blows the Orioles.
And the Red Sox blow each other.
I’m using my bobblehead for legally bonding one-sided trade proposals.
Jason Bay for Eric Hinske sound good, John? (hits head) Well, if you say so.
When asked why such a stupid party favor, Mr. Henry replied: “I’m sorry, what? I didn’t hear the question. I was busy counting all of my money.”
@UU if Damon is doing some blowing, where do I sign up
/swoon
and yeah, someone is gonna correct me, but I couldnt think of any CURRENT Sox that were hot enuf to mention..
