MRS. JOAN ROADHOUSE'S COMMENT THAT FIREWORKS FOLLOWING SECOND HOMERUN NOT AS POTENT AS FIRST STRIKES NERVE IN HUSBANDPITTSBURGH - Joan and Bradleys Roadhouse, who attended yesterday's Pirates' victory over the Cardinals at PNC Park, appear headed for divorce court due to the Jason Bay-Joe Randa back-to-back homeruns.
After every Pirate homerun at PNC Park a short burst of fireworks is set off just beyond the outfield wall. Yesterday was no different following Bay's homerun. However, the fireworks following Randa's homerun just moments later were noticeably less potent than the ones for Bay. Mrs. Roadhouse, 32, made the mistake of commenting to her husband that "they had trouble loading the firework shooter after the first round -- they couldn't get it off." She compounded her mistake by chuckling about it. Bradleys Roadhouse, 34, construed his wife's comments as a reference to his amorous capabilities, prompting him to storm out of the ballpark. Joan Roadhouse told this news source that she "grows weary" of what she calls her husband's paranoia. "He even has a complex over the size of the hot dogs that the parrot shoots off," she said.
Mrs. Roadhouse asked that this incident not be made public. To appease her and to encourage her to tell us her story, we agreed.
