RIP TO A FUNNY GUY!
Ballpark organist ejected for playing 'Three Blind Mice' dies
SOUTH PASADENA, Fla. (AP) Wilbur Snapp, a minor league baseball organist who drew national attention after an umpire ejected him for playing ''Three Blind Mice,'' died at 83.
Snapp played ''Three Blind Mice'' during a game in 1985 after what he thought was a bad call against the Clearwater Phillies at Jack Russell Stadium. Not amused, the ump pointed up at the organist, then thumbed him out of the game.
