While the heat was oppressive, I found myself venturing out to the (sometimes) rainy, (always) too hot parking lot of Urban Axes Baltimore during the Urban Open. The reasons for this were plenty, but in this particular case I was waiting on a burger and fries.
Through my own good fortune, I met a willing...albeit relatively unaware...interviewee. This is how that story went:
DARLA, HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN COMING TO AXE THROWING?
::Darla sniffs my phone (which I use to record interviews), and looks at her owner and then back to me::
ARE YOU THE VERY BEST DOG THAT'S EVER LIVED?
::Darla scratches her neck with her back paw, then nibbles on that paw while holding herself up on three legs::
I'LL TAKE THAT AS A YES.
::She begins to walk away to smell a fire drum nearby::
DARLA HOW DO YOU THINK THE SPORT CAN GROW? DARLA?!
::Darla was clearly done with the interview, and trotted away from me. ::
Perfect interview, truth be told.
