The rains came in the eighth inning of the Rangers-Angels game in Arlington on Monday, causing a 38-minute delay. Some fans had umbrellas, others had ponchos, some took cover inside the stadium and perhaps grabbed a refreshment.

One man attempted to shield himself from the downpour with a plastic cup. He failed. To be fair, it's a big cup -- looks like 32 ounces -- but he's still drenched. Let this man's discovery be a lesson to all of us.
