Softball fever, total madness hit Carson City
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world this weekend in the Eagle Valley as more than 100 teams from all over the West Coast have converged upon the John D. Winters Centennial Park Complex in northeast Carson City for the 17th Annual All World Sports Midnight Madness slow-pitch softball tournament.
The event runs around the clock for 72 straight hours of pitch after maddening pitch, and inning after maddening inning.
Play began Friday night at 9 p.m. and continues through Monday morning, Memorial Day.
The Carson City Visitors Bureau expects the tournament to pump close to $2 million into the local economy over the holiday weekend.
