This photographer’s reaction to Ichiro’s 100th career Major League home run, and his very first as a member of the New York Yankees, makes me laugh and laugh and laugh.
It starts off with such genuine excitement at the ball going over the fence, and then there’s sudden realization of his duties as a photographer, and then that moment where he balances the one camera and briefly strains his face while bringing the other camera up to capture the moment. It’s all just perfect. I love it.
Thanks to @TheScottLewis for the late night GIF.
Sometimes comments can still be racist despite efforts not to be. Playing up stereotypes falls into that category for me. You’re funny otherwise, just not this time.
maybe the picture wouldve said the thousand words your description failed to.
It’s like pointing out a racist slur than saying “I didn’t mean it though”. Come on bro, keep it PC
A racist slur? Are you serious? Settle down.
Yeah, I don’t see it either… I think they feel it’s racist because in our ridiculously stupid society today, you aren’t allowed to observe anyone that isn’t white doing anything, ever, anywhere.
Lighten up and have a laugh fellas?
Stating something is “vaguely racist” is still racist, intention or not. Poor judgment on your part.
Was this post edited – I see nothing racist here….?
Yeah Liam, I’m with you.
Yes, it most certainly was edited.
Yeah, I took out the part where I mentioned it’s not the Japanese stereotype of tourists with cameras that makes this funny because that seemed to be the focus of discontent in the comments.

THAT’S RAYCESS, YOU HONKY
As soon as you typed Japanese, people were going to complain
way to be racialist Parkes.
Great .gif though. I wish my day job had moments like that.
That is awesome and people need to get off their high horses.
