A Scottish man was at a baseball game.
It was the first time he had ever seen the sport so he sat quietly. The first batter approached the plate, took a few swings and then hit a double. Everyone was on their feet screaming "Run, Run!"

The Scotsman immediately stood up and screamed, "Walk with pride, man! Walk with pride!"
