Ethier Muscles In On Martin's Yoga Mat Turf

Dissatisfied with teammate Russell Martin getting all the yoga attention, walk-off king Andre Ethier is leading a yoga program at the stadium for himself and 100 lucky fans (who want to shell out $100 a pop, of course):

LOS ANGELES –DodgersWIN will present a first-of-its-kind event at Dodger Stadium, Yoga with Andre Ethier on Saturday, July 18. The outfielder’s personal yoga instructor Johanna Epps will lead participants in a session that will include yoga routines that Epps has shared with Ethier. The one-hour session led by Epps will include an autographed photo of the outfielder and a DodgersWIN yoga mat.

DodgersWIN yoga will take place before Saturday’s night game against the Houston Astros on the field at Dodger Stadium from 11 a.m. to noon. This DodgersWIN special event will be limited to 100 participants who will get the chance to meet Ethier and also learn yoga techniques from Epps, a seasoned instructor who has taught yoga for more than 5 years.

$100 seems a little spendy for an hour session. I don't know if I could close my eyes to meditate without thinking "shit, that's another dollar" every 36 seconds. But on the other hand...

Hmm. Let's just say, I can be flexible. (Get it?)

No man dares call it hooking.

I don't think I'll be paying $100 to do yoga on the field at Dodger Stadium, in the middle of the day, in the middle of July, no matter how hard they try to entice me.
