Wake Up Call: Is that the LA Angels’ entrance music I hear?

Getty Images The Los Angeles Angels of Disneyland shattered the Guinness Book of World Records for largest gathering of people wearing masks, which I am surprised to learn before Tuesday was only 250 (Guinness has obviously never been to Comic-Con). Last night the announced crowd of more than 42,000, each of whom received red wrestling masks, was asked to don them during the fifth inning for ten minutes, thus breaking the record. Video here.
Still not impressed. Notify me when a crowd breaks the Guinness world record for drinking Guinness.
Forty-two thousand people wearing Mexican wrestling masks on the U.S. side of the border … welcome to Pat Robertson’s primary night terror.

The fact that Mark was snared and the dog wasn’t speaks volumes.
