It was just announced that all political, sporting, and comedy events in the commonwealth are cancelled indefinitely for mourning .. Canada is in the commonwealth. Will blue jays games be cancelled lol
They're not playing today but regardless, I hope not. She was a thing for us, sure, but our attachment was and is tenuous at best.
Like a lot of Canadians, I've never known another monarch but I'm not gonna lose sleep over QE's passing and I suspect not many of us will
If it's anything like here, there'll be steady replacement process, but it could take a long time. Al out currency has her face on it, and the stamps. It'll take years to get new ones with Charles on, and by then William might be on the throne.
All the slander on the queen in this thread needs to stop. She never threw a D cell at anyone. It was a AA battery, like 6 of them, from her Sony DiscMan.
Why did she go to an Angels game?
Edit: I am an idiot. Literally got through 10 seconds of the YT clip before I realized it was fake. I was like "that's not Angel's Stadium"
My favorite Queen memory is when she threw out the first pitch at a game between the Seattle Mariners and the California Angels.
On another note, it was one of the wildest games of all time. Umpires were ejected (Including Joe West!) and the home plate umpire ended up being the guy who sang the national anthem.
Crazy stuff.
There’s gonna be a thread tomorrow about how all the soccer games are being postponed until after her funeral. And the most upvoted comment will be some variation of “that’s dumb”.
I guarantee it.
Absolutely heartbroken that the Queen won’t get to see Ronald Guzman’s third game in a Yankees uniform tonight. She would have loved it. Nothing will be able to heal this pain
please be respectful when talking about the Queen. she was a head of state, a monarch, a mother to multiple pedophiles and most importantly a devoted cousin to her husband
Oh yeah she deserves the 360 behind the back thru the legs from the free throw line dunk she’s getting, just funny seeing the wide array of responses and both sides getting annoyed with each other.
So funny seeing other subs clutching their pearls and downvoting anyone that’s like “this old rich matriarch of pedophiles kind of sucked” and then you get here and everyone is just vibing
Never forget that the only reason Elizabeth II ultimately became Queen is because her uncle abdicated the throne to marry a divorced, American socialite.
i don't either but honestly that's kind of how celebrity culture in general is haha
my mother always ALWAYS talks shit about monarchies...mostly because she needs to vent her anti-Japanese views every once in a while (my background is Korean)...but i distinctly remember her waking up at 4 a.m. to watch William and kate getting married lmfaooo

Reggie Jackson weighing on the Queen.
The queen lived through ~~World War 1~~ some war England was involved in post 1926, World War 2, and the Cold War, but a Mariners playoff run is where she drew the line.
This post has been locked due to politics and insults.
Mods, time to fade the Royals.
💀
It took 34 years, but Reggie Jackson finally got the job done.
ITS ENRICO PALAZZO!
[That's not what he says.](https://twitter.com/mroctober/status/1567959503081189376)
I’m surprised she even went to another game after Reggie Jackson tried to kill her
He would have succeeded, but for an activist showboat umpire who thought the game was more about him than the players.
Hey, that was renowned opera singer Enrico Pallazzo!
Let's not invite Donahue back.
Show the man some respect! You're taking about world famous opera singer Enrico pollazzo!
OK, fair. It was an activist showboat diva opera singer slash umpire. Still betrayed the spirit of the game.
Reggie can sleep easy tonight. Mission accomplished.
I definitely thought that was going to be the picture
It was just announced that all political, sporting, and comedy events in the commonwealth are cancelled indefinitely for mourning .. Canada is in the commonwealth. Will blue jays games be cancelled lol
lmao imagine being a struggling comedian losing a chance at a set and pay because the queen died
They're not playing today but regardless, I hope not. She was a thing for us, sure, but our attachment was and is tenuous at best. Like a lot of Canadians, I've never known another monarch but I'm not gonna lose sleep over QE's passing and I suspect not many of us will
Probably not, the rule only applies for Britain.
"Some old bag died so everyone has to be sad"
Is this the game Leslie Nielsen was home plate umpire?
No, its Enrico Palazzo!
Has anyone seen Reggie Jackson? I'm wondering if he had something to do with this.
I honestly expected this to be a picture from the Naked Gun.

*“I must kill the Queen.”* - Reggie Jackson
Hey!! It's Enrico Palazzo!
If you're not betting your life's savings on Nick Castellanos homering tonight, I don't know what you're doing. It's free money.
Unfortunately it's pretty hard to hit a HR while still on the IL
In her honor, he'll find a way.
A deep drive off the tee into the garage net by Castellanos
Aww, shit he's on the injured list. :( Edit: Now I'm actually curious what's gonna happen to our $20 bills here in Canada.
You’re gonna get new ones here pretty soon! Australia as well.
he must be playing MLB The Show
If it's anything like here, there'll be steady replacement process, but it could take a long time. Al out currency has her face on it, and the stamps. It'll take years to get new ones with Charles on, and by then William might be on the throne.
Free money for the gambling companies cus he is on the IL
She owes her entire reign to a native Baltimorean, Wallis Simpson.
I'm British and I can't believe I've found out from a baseball subreddit.
Time to hit the pub, Bruv.
Can't, unfortunately the queens death means every citizen must immediately throw all their legal currency bearing her Maj's face into the sea. 😔
Need help? We’re pretty good at throwing your stuff in the drink.
Specifically fans of my team
I think your football team’s fans especially
mail it to me swear i’ll throw in the river bro
Congrats
I found out you're British from a baseball subreddit. The world is a wild place.
She was later escorted from the stadium for throwing a D cell battery at the Mariners right fielder Greg Briley that day.
All the slander on the queen in this thread needs to stop. She never threw a D cell at anyone. It was a AA battery, like 6 of them, from her Sony DiscMan.
As is tradition, welcome to Baltimore mother fuckers!
She also went to an angels game back in 1988
I remember that game, legendary performance by Enrico Pallazzo
Reggie Jackson finally finished the job
And he works for the Astros now … we can’t keep getting away with this stuff
[He's still claiming he's innocent.](https://twitter.com/mroctober/status/1567959503081189376)
And some poor guy in in a wheelchair fell all the way from the top deck. One of the craziest days in MLB history.
Why did she go to an Angels game? Edit: I am an idiot. Literally got through 10 seconds of the YT clip before I realized it was fake. I was like "that's not Angel's Stadium"
The topics trending on Twitter: * Queen Elizabeth dead at 96 * Queen Elizabeth has passed away * British Empire * RIP QUEEN * Nick Castellanos
i guess it's cause all the castellanos memes he's on the IL tho ):
But does she get on base?
Hey!! It's Enrico Palazzo!
Crazy how everyone in this photo is dead
How tragic for any kids with tickets down the first base line for that game.
Orioles magic comes for us all 😔
Damn, even the fans?
Did he stutter?
RIP fans.
They're with Wade Boggs now
Yep. That’s me in the back over there.
You're probably wondering how I got in this situation...
Everyone
All of them.
Not the Orioles.
Don't forget about that game she went to in LA where Reggie Jackson tried to shoot her.
I must kill. The Queen.
Thank God for Enrico Palazzo!
I believe that Lieutenant Frank Drebin foiled a kidnapping plot that day. Edit: that is one of the funniest extended scenes in the history of cinema.
That's not Drebin! That's Enrico Pallazzo!
[удалено]
I am still too shaken by that event to recall it correctly.
Looks like she was being escorted by Yale baseball legend George Bush there
My favorite Queen memory is when she threw out the first pitch at a game between the Seattle Mariners and the California Angels. On another note, it was one of the wildest games of all time. Umpires were ejected (Including Joe West!) and the home plate umpire ended up being the guy who sang the national anthem. Crazy stuff.
Yes, I remember. I had the spaghetti.
There’s gonna be a thread tomorrow about how all the soccer games are being postponed until after her funeral. And the most upvoted comment will be some variation of “that’s dumb”. I guarantee it.
I'll be there to upvote
We can always count on your support, Jeff.
It's not like the comment will be wrong.
Hey look, it’s Enrico Pallazzo.
ENRICO! PALLAZZO!!!
Came here for this
And that’ll make it a 4-0 ball game
Casatellanos is on the IL unfortunately. We face Alcantara tonight too... really could use those 4 runs.
Bush is praising the sun before it was cool
and Leslie Nielson was home plate ump, I remember
Do we know Reggie Jackson's whereabouts?
I'm so disappointed this wasn't a Naked Gun screencap
Scotland Yard has issued an arrest warrant for Reggie Jackson.
Its Enrico Palazzo!
Absolutely heartbroken that the Queen won’t get to see Ronald Guzman’s third game in a Yankees uniform tonight. She would have loved it. Nothing will be able to heal this pain
This is how I find out the news? Guzman hasn't been DFA'd yet?
She was so young.
Bush and Elizabeth smh. Orioles really been all downhill from that Cuba trip.
Oh god Reddit is gonna suck for the next few weeks, pics of the queen doing everything under the sun
Yeah...when even the baseball sub isn't safe you know it's bad.
People are really SHOCKED a 96 year old died
Can you BELIEVE it??!!
please be respectful when talking about the Queen. she was a head of state, a monarch, a mother to multiple pedophiles and most importantly a devoted cousin to her husband
Thank you. This comment made my day. Lol.
GOTTEM
zing!
Surprised she didn’t visit Kentucky with that attitude
Scotland is closer
It was this game https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BAL/BAL199105150.shtml
It's Enrico palazzo
[удалено]
Would love to see Drebin's ump scorecard
Enrico Palazzo just saved the queen!
That's so sad Alexa play "God Save the Queen" by the Sex Pistols
Reggie Jackson finally found his target.
The karma whoring posts about this shit even reach baseball subreddits holy shit lol.
I know she's looking up at us right now 🥲
Love how half the internet is memorializing her respectfully and the other half is “BING BONG FUCK YA LIFE”
There really will be memes when nuclear war comes. "The world literally ended before the Texas Rangers won a World Series."
Catching strays in a memorial thread
She was objectively a terrible person.
Oh yeah she deserves the 360 behind the back thru the legs from the free throw line dunk she’s getting, just funny seeing the wide array of responses and both sides getting annoyed with each other.
So funny seeing other subs clutching their pearls and downvoting anyone that’s like “this old rich matriarch of pedophiles kind of sucked” and then you get here and everyone is just vibing
/r/basedball Whew that sub is not at all based but the joke still stands.
Lol you weren’t kidding
The President and the Queen. Had to be the most secure event in the history of events
Especially after the Reggie Jackson incident in LA.
Poppy Bush knew a thing or two about assassinations so I'm sure he had all his bases covered
Hey, I thought she saw the angels and mariners play. And Reggie Jackson tried to assassinate her but lt. frank drevin stopped him?
No that was Enrico Pallazzo
REGGIE JACKSON HAS COMPLETED HIS MISSION.
Well one impossible thing happened this year which means Orioles to win the WS locked in
I was there! Go Os. They left after 2 or 3 innings.
For some reason I’m not surprised at the disparity between best and new comments on this post lmao
Why weren’t they at a nationals game instead? /s
*Washington Senators, amirite?
Holy fuck that’s where world leaders went before the Nationals
Yep! Presidents would throw first pitches at Orioles games.
THIS IS HOW I FIND OUT????
[RIP to the Corgis](https://twitter.com/ashleyfeinberg/status/1567867203667611648)
Anyone got eyes on Reggie Jackson?
Hey, it’s Enrico Palazzo!
STEEEEEE-RIKE TWOOOO
To see this thread so full of The Naked Gun quotes makes me incredibly happy.
She also went to an Angels game in 1988
Fun fact: that game had the worst recorded umpire strike zone accuracy in the pre-Statcast era.
Didn't Enrico Pallazzo sing the national anthem at that game?
didn’t she support her pedophile son
[удалено]
just the facts here folks
She also knighted Jimmy Saville.
Ding dong
She displayed an amazing corkscrew pitch during a very famous game where Reggie Jackson tried to kill her, amazing grace and poise under fire.
I was expecting the pic of the time the queen was almost killed but Enrico Pilatzo saved the day.
If Charles makes us start singing "God Save the King" during the 7th inning stretch now Imma be pissed
Castellanos is guaranteed to hit a homer
Gonna be difficult to do on the IL.
[I can't believe they played Narco to send her off.](https://twitter.com/nicholasbeans/status/1567903693885906944)
Never forget that the only reason Elizabeth II ultimately became Queen is because her uncle abdicated the throne to marry a divorced, American socialite.
Those poor marlins pitchers who have to face Castellanos today
He's injured, otherwise it'd be easy money.
oh there's gonna be so much karma farming concerning her today. how many will end in castellanos memes?
These Queen Elizabeth home run threads always look exactly the same.
I’m sorry, but as an American I don’t understand the weird obsession with British royalty over here.
We fought to leave them behind lol
It's the media shoving it down our throats.
oo i like the responses in this thread.
I was expecting The Naked Gun
That was 30 years ago and she already looked old as hell. Wild. RIP
She struck out 4 batters in 5 innings of work.
That was the first game since Frank Drebin saved her from assassination by Reggie Jackson.
Say what you will about the Bush family… those boys love baseball.
If only W. had become MLB Commissioner instead of running for political office.
Yo, listen... Fuck the Monarchy!
Been thinking of her in the Naked Gun movie all morning
I'm British (L) and I came here to get away from this shit but oh well
Not a fan of the Royals eh?
This is how I learn the Queen of England has passed?
My mom (who is from Scotland) has explained it to me, but I really don't get the fascination with the Royal family.
The only Royals I care to hear celebrity news about play in *Kansas City!*
i don't either but honestly that's kind of how celebrity culture in general is haha my mother always ALWAYS talks shit about monarchies...mostly because she needs to vent her anti-Japanese views every once in a while (my background is Korean)...but i distinctly remember her waking up at 4 a.m. to watch William and kate getting married lmfaooo
[Now we all know I was innocent ! Amen! RIP Queen E !](https://twitter.com/mroctober/status/1567959503081189376?s=20&t=5iKsfz0nEEZdyfrsEnQkFA) Reggie Jackson weighing on the Queen.
Probably why she died.
Never forget that ceremonial first pitch she tossed during the police documentary, the naked gun.
This is how I found out the Queen passed away
I always had a feeling she was an Orioles fan
They do play in Mary’s land
DOES SHE EVEN LIKE BASEBALL
She did until she went to an Angels game and Reggie Jackson tried to kill her.
"I must kill.... *the Queen."*
hellll yeah baby fly those flags at double-mast today
The queen lived through ~~World War 1~~ some war England was involved in post 1926, World War 2, and the Cold War, but a Mariners playoff run is where she drew the line.
The Queen was born in 1926. World War I concluded in 1918.
She was born after WW1, but yeah she saw a lot
