Jose Canseco is going on a 'Home Run Tour' in his CansecoMobile

Jose Canseco has found a constructive way to spend his days as a disgraced former major league slugger, and it involves hitting home runs. Canseco has hatched a scheme whereby he will travel the country in an RV attempting to break records for longest baseball and softball home runs.

The press release on this (via Big League Stew) could be the saddest thing ever written. The person who put these words together should be put on suicide watch. I feel for this person and his/her family.

"Jose Canseco’s Home Run Tour will begin next week and run for over two months as he visits 17 cities in Canada and the U.S. covering 16,500 miles in 10 weeks in the CansecoMobile — a 40-foot custom RV. He will be appearing at minor league ballparks and charity events challenging local sluggers as he attempts to break the official world record softball longest home run of 510 feet by Bruce Meade and Babe Ruth’s longest baseball home run of 570 feet."

The CansecoMobile! It’s shaped like a UFO and smells like suspicious creams. Watch for the CansecoMobile arriving in your town soon (and remember, if the CansecoMobile is rocking…it’s probably because there’s a serious problem with the suspension).
