Joltin' Joe Sombrero

Merit Badge:

Congratulations! For whatever reason, you've broken 56 different bats by taking practice swings against particularly solid objects. Once upon a time there was another man, who had a record long ago based on hitting things with baseball bats for 56 games in a row. Your bats are now broken, while his record remains unbroken to this day. I'm going to assume that your actions are some strange but touching display of respect for Mr. DiMaggio and give you an award. You get a merit badge: Joltin' Joe Sombrero

Merit badges can be seen in your character page.

Requirements

Use 56 baseball bats.

Notes

• It is not necessary to use all 56 bats in a row without leaving the inventory page.
• The number you have broken is remembered over transmogrification, so you only need to break 56 over the entire course of playing the game.

References

• Refers to Joe DiMaggio's standing record of a hitting streak of 56 games.
• The image name refers to the song "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel, which contains the lyrics "Joltin' Joe has left and gone away."
