John Middleton is continuing his Everyman Tour of sitting with Phillies fans, more specifically the Phandemic Krew, in the cheap seats. This time he added a little extra difficulty to it and did it in the rain. The Philly Captain captured it on his Youtube Channel:

Past occurrences of John Middleton Everyman-ness include giving Phillies fans he met outside the ballpark tickets to his suite. Earlier this season, he hung out with fans in the 300s,signing autographs, taking pictures, and doling out high fives:

Owner John Middleton took time to shake hands, take selfies, sign autographs & just enjoy baseball w/ @phillies fans in the 300-section of @PhilliesCBP. The guy is a pure class act. Thanks John, for celebrating w/ us & taking time to show fans why we have the best owner in @MLB! pic.twitter.com/fJTWUDle3v

Man, does this guy give out some mean high fives:

Big Howard Dean energy.

WE’RE GOING TO TAKE THE DIVISION! THEN THE PENNANT! THEN WE’RE GOING TO WASHINGTON, D.C. TO TAKE BACK THE WHITE HOUSE! HUAAAAAHHHHH!

Middleton’s been having a good season. Gotta give credit where credit is due. He went over the tax and is about to end an 11 year playoff drought. That said, I like to still keep one eye on my billionaires. It only takes one slip up for this house of cards to come crashing down. If the Phillies flame out in the playoffs and he doesn’t sign Trea Turner in the offseason, people are going to forget the 300 level grandstanding very quickly.
