Aw shite. If hunting counts I very vividly remember hunting deer north of Clyde Park, Montana when it was -10 and windy.

Played a baseball game in Oklahoma against Allen County Community College from Kansas... was 28 with a 17 degree wind chill.
First bat to touch a ball exploded into a million pieces. It was one of the carbon handled eastons from back in the mid 90s.
We had to keep the bats in the club house to keep them from exploding.

Especially in Louisiana. I remember highschool baseball being miserabley cold. Fans wear parkas during baseball and booty shorts during football season.
