I attended a baseball match last night.  It was the Yankees of New York City
visiting the Orioles of Baltimore.  Very exciting game and the Orioles
managed a come-from-behind victory over the visiting New York team with a
final score of New York 6, Baltimore 7.

During the game there was a rolling advertising banner behind home plate
visible on TV during each pitch.  One of the adds was for Pentax.  It said
(and I am NOT making this up!) "PENTAX" in big bold red letters and below in
smaller print "Digital Cameras <spaces> Endoscopes"

Granted Baltimore is the home of Johns Hopkins Medical Center, but still, it
was pretty funny.  Great marketing stratedgy.
