Baseball Ceiling Fans and My Buddy's Man Cave
Sports themed rooms or “Man Caves” are all the rage these days. Big screen televisions and comfy couches are a given when it comes to setting up these rooms, but some have really taken it to the next level when it comes to laying out arguably the most popular room in the house. Some men have even built their man caves as a tribute in support their favorite sports team.
So was the case with my good friend. I was invited over to a housewarming party shortly after he moved into a new home. He and his wife had just bought the house of their dreams they bragged, and they wanted to share it with their friends.
I got to the house and was immediately impressed, the house was unbelievable! I received the grand tour, ending in the media room. The media room was definitely a man cave on steroids. It was themed after my buddy’s favorite baseball team; he had installed two baseball ceiling fans, a bar with a baseball diamond inlayed and had painted the wall his team’s colors. There was baseball memorabilia all over the place, great artwork too. A picture of the baseball field, bats and balls showcased on shelves, and even a digital scoreboard. To cap the room off, there were televisions everywhere, above the bar, three on the main wall, and even a small TV in the attached bathroom.
Needless to say, we spent most of my visit in the room watching the game and drinking beers and enjoying the room. We even had popcorn from a movie theatre popcorn maker, and most exciting for us that the room is fitted baseball ceiling fan.
After I left his house I could not wait to get home and start planning my very own man cave. Call it the competitor in me, but I felt the urge to make my sports room a room that I could brag about with my buddies.
