Tweeting Texas governor plays Dewey to KC’s Truman as Royals-Astros game turns
On Monday, someone with access to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s [r] official Twitter account posted congratulations to the home-state Astros — roughly six outs before their playoff game with the Royals was over….
The Astros went on to lose that game and then lost the series to the Royals in Kansas City last night.
Yesterday, from the republican Governor of Texas:
Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX
I don’t believe in curses or jinks. But just in case they really work: Congratulations @HillaryClinton. 10:03 PM – 14 Oct 2015
And, this being the Internets, the winning reply:
Kevin Garner @kevintgarner
.@GregAbbott_TX Though @HillaryClinton would improve our education so students know how to spell jinx #Hillary2016 10:34 PM – 14 Oct 2015
Heh. October hijinks.

Kansas City Royals 9 to 8 in twelve innings.
I went to bed at 10:30 p.m.
Last night, via twitter:
Brandon H. @BHIndepMO
the time is 12:01, the Royals have made it to October. 12:01 AM – 1 Oct 2014
The announced attendance was 40,502. Twenty years from now there will be a significant percentage of the population in the Kansas City metro area bragging that they knew someone who actually attended the game.
I know someone who actually attended the game.
Today will not be an official day off in Kansas City:
Mayor Sly James @MayorSlyJames
Sorry but I’ll be up and at em at 5:30. You all can make it too. 11:49 PM – 30 Sep 2014
