In 2008, the Florida Marlins hit it out of the ball park with the Marlins Manatees, Major League Baseball's first ever all-male dance/energy squad. Now, the Marlins are bringing the Manatees back for the 2009 season, and want the team's biggest fans to audition for the squad.
The Marlins are looking for bellies with the biggest jiggle, big feet with the best dance moves and enthusiasm that will rock Marlins fans out of their seats.
The Marlins Manatees will perform at Friday and Saturday Marlins' home games throughout the 2009 season. Manatee hopefuls do not need prior dance experience, just the willingness to learn routines and have a great time dancing and cheering in front of thousands of fans.
Manatee hopefuls should:
Arrive in Marlins attire
Be 18 years or older
Be prepared to learn a choreographed routine
The Marlins already have a cheerleading squad, the considerably more svelte Mermaids.
Yeah what is it with Marlin home games. Seems every game I watched or the high-lites on ESPN, the outfield seats are uninhabited. The fucking blast into the outfield seats has about a dozen rambunctious teenagers slipping in their own shit srambling after the home run ball. The Marlins put a pretty good team on the field year after year without spending a gazillion dollars. They could be a franchise on the move.
