Ok I have a personal one. I've played softball once in my life. When I was a kid I would spend all day at the park. If I didn't have anybody to play with, and I had gotten sick of shooting baskets or doing self-toss into the backstop, I would go into the woods behind the OF fence on one of the fields and get baseballs that nobody retrieved (I don't think I ever remember myself or my father ever actually buying balls). Well one I emerged from the woods to find that a slowpitch pickup game had been started by some adults. I literally walked out of the woods right onto their field. They asked me if I wanted to play and I said sure...they called me Shoeless Joe for the whole game.
