On the airport bus to Tel Aviv to comprehend the flight to Toronto, I asked what the name of the city meant. Mound of Treat someone to I was told. Inevitably my mind drifted to whom would be on the mound for the Blue Jays after begin training.

Interesting, isn't it, that when thousands of sports fans were wondering if Manchester C would blow rhythm Manchester U in England, or if Sachin Tendulkar would get his 100th century at the Melbourne Cricket Train or if Usain Bolt would win another three golds in London, it was baseball's spring training that drew my desire.

Are sports fans who get intoxicated with spring training absolutely insane or is there really something special about that annual ritual?

Observant baseball fans have been traveling to the Arise Training Festival for about 100 years.

Throughout the festival, special symbolic foods are consumed, mostly laden with mustard and relish accompanied by the world's most widely consumed dipso beverage.
