The man behind them in the cowboy hat and the woman next to him went to school with their grandmother. The woman and their grandma, Choo-Choo Grandma, were best friends for years.
The four men on the bench waiting their turn to play were taught English or baseball by the young men's father. They too can only think of the game to be played, not the history. They await their chance to prove themselves.
The two brothers are hours and miles apart. One is with his friends playing video games. The other brother is in a state new to him making new friends and proving himself. And proving to the history watching him he is worthy. He has nothing to prove.
