Winning a World Series is easy(not really) but unveiling a World Series banner is hard. Just ask the Houston Astros, who won their first-ever Major League Baseball championship last fall. During their home opener against the Baltimore Orioles on Monday, the Astros tried to celebrate their 2017 World Series win with a banner unveiling at Minute Maid Park, but things didn’t go as planned when the black tarp covering the banner refused to come down. Several fans and players were shown having a laugh as ballpark crew members finally used a leaf blower to get the tarp to fall. Is there any problem a leaf blower can’t solve?
