Skip overheated at Cypress Mounds tonight, not sure if he passed out or not. He was given an IV, taken to OLOL in good condition - all according to park manager.
Called LSU and am awaiting official comment. I'll post it along when I get it.
ETA: just got a call from LSU, Michael Bonnette talked to Skip, who said he was getting dizzy, went to the hospital as a precaution, got fluids, doing better and his headed home.

Thanks for the update. Out of curiosity, did you graduate from the AFA?

I wish, no I rep the AF because my father retired a Cmsgt. after 30 years.

Thank your Dad for his service.

I was right there when it happened. He was greeting all the kids as they were introduced during opening ceremonies. He walked to the nearby dugout and sat down. A couple of our parents are nurses and got him some water and called EMS as a precaution. He did not pass out, but was close. He was just overcome by the heat. they loaded him in the ambulance and left. Glad to hear that he is fine.

Get well soon, Skip. We love you.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Skip getting hot about a call at first base.
Glad to hear he's ok.
