**Comeback lines to "Waiter, there’s a fly in my soup."** 1. Well, don’t yell. Everybody will want one. 2. Don’t worry, there’ll be no extra charge for that. 3. Oh, he won’t eat much. 4. And it looks like he’s doing a good back stroke too. 5. That must mean we’ve eliminated the cockroaches. 6. Most people would be happy to have the free protein, sir. 7. I’d keep it zipped if I were you, sir. 8. Only one? I wonder what happened to the other one. 9. Sorry about that, sir. I assume that you wanted a few more than just one? 10. Better than having soup in your fly. 11. I’m sorry, sir. I misunderstood when you said you wanted a soup with some body to it. 12. Don’t worry, the spider in the dinner roll will get him. 13. “Is it dead or alive, sir?” … if the diner says, “dead”, then … “My apologies. Shall I fetch you a live one?” _(or vice versa)_ in honor of the upcoming start of the MLB season, **Outlandish Baseball Park Foods** 1. Fried grasshoppers – Seattle Mariners _ **-“BB”-** _ ---

**Outlandish Baseball Park Foods** 1. Fried grasshoppers – Seattle Mariners 2. The Choomongous - Texas Rangers 3. StrasBurger - Washington Nationals. Found online at [firstwefeast.com](http://firstwefeast.com): “Named after the Nationals’ oft-injured starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg, this ground brisket, chuck, and short-rib behemoth weighs eight solid pounds, has nearly 10,000 calories and 700 grams of fat, and costs $59. That’s actually kind of cheap for stadium food, especially considering that you’re getting a cone of fries and a pitcher of soda tossed in gratis…” ---

BBQ Sandwich with peanut butter cups - Kansas City Royals 6. Junior’s Deep Fried New York Cheesecake - NY Mets 7. Pulled Pork Parfait - Milwaukee Brewers 8. The Punisher - Turner Field It’s a huge sandwich; per NBC News, “between those two minuscule buns is a chunk of rib meat that’s drenched in barbecue sauce (which has been infused with an energy drink that’ll help you stay awake if the game goes to extras) and what appears to be a few onion rings. Then, just for good measure, it looks like the Braves give you a couple pieces of bacon on top of all that. No word on if the calorie count for this meal reaches six digits, though.” ---
