Safety shoes for bucket dad

Sidesaddle, I nearly spit my coffee all over my screen!

A 3-gallon bucket on the bottom and a 10-gallon hat on top.

When I caught my daughter, I sat on a bucket one time. As a former catcher, I could not cope with the limited mobility. (Yes, I know, not everybody can still squat!) I saw more guys take it to the special place on a bucket than off.

I don’t remember getting beat up when I squatted. I had two jobs I worked for a long time that also required kneeling down and squating. After to many years of work and catching my knee are often sore so I seat on a bucket.

I always wear a cup. It is too easy to get shifted too far forward for the bucket to work.

I always sat pretty far back on the bucket. Never had any runners on base, so mobility was not my main concern. Tipping over backwards was a risk.
