Addendum!

The latest edition of Promotion Preview is out now! As always, it is 1500 words of pure, unfiltered hilarity (or, at the very least, it is 1500 words).

Nonetheless, this week's column is not all that it could be. I did include a write-up of the Lake Elsinore Storm's "Old School Hip-Hop Night" on Thursday, but new details have come to light that I must now share with my readers.

Regarding the portion of the evening that is specifically related to Old-School Hip-Hop: In

addition to a break dancing competition and a performance by local hip-hop dance team Intramix, the club will debut mascot Thunder's new video for "Baby Got Back." If this video becomes available online, you can rest assured that I will link to it with a stunning quickness.

Then, after the ballgame, the club is hosting the first-ever "Bikini Beach Home Run Derby." This riveting competition is the brainchild of local radio and television celebrity "Poorman", who hosts "Poorman's Bikini Beach TV Show." Here's some info from the press release:

The 'Bikini Beach Home Run Derby' is a two round competition featuring 10 gorgeous girls in bikinis in a 10 pitch double elimination home run hitting battle. It is conducted in a similar fashion as Major League Baseball's 'Home Run Derby' except there are a total of two rounds and there are drawn in fences....  After each home run, there is a home run trot.  At the conclusion of the 'Bikini Beach Home Run Derby', the Awards Ceremony and Pool Party are at The Lake Elsinore Hotel And Casino.

It goes without saying that all of this is happening on a "Thirsty Thursday", when beers will be $1 all game long. With a deal like that, it looks like the "Pourman" is going to be just as busy as the Poorman.

Should I receive any more information about the Bikini Beach Home Run Derby, I will most certainly pass it along to my loyal cadre of readers. Stay tuned.
