Location

The Fridays play their home games in the Sovereign Nation of Hawaii. While other teams prefer to play in a stadium complex the Fridays opt to play wherever the vibes feel best, meaning games can take place in literally any location on any of the islands and occasionally even in the water. Fans and merch vendors are recommended to bring their own seating and booths.


Our Lady of Perpetual Friday

See main article on Our Lady of Perpetual Friday.

The Fridays are blessed/cursed by Our Lady of Perpetual Friday. For the Fridays, it is always island time. Players cannot feel the passing of the hours, nor experience fear, despair, elation—anything besides a heightened feeling of chill. No matter the temperature, the Fridays experience the weather as a cool 70-something degrees with a pleasant ocean breeze. The smell of pit oven smoke lingers around them. They are fun at parties.


Gameday Customs

The Fridays traditionally set up their snack and frosty drink carts next to third base. This leads to many Fridays players getting thrown out trying to steal third, as they forget about the game and leisurely stroll over to check out the cart. Efforts to move the carts to a less accessible and game-altering place have been strongly resisted by Fridays batter Elijah Valenzuela ("All such things should be freely available to the people.") and pitcher Stevenson Heat ("I just gets real hungry sometimes, you know?").

The Fridays no longer have a fourth blase, as their original one gained sentience to become Evelton McBlase. As such, the team uses Daddy Bradley's ballcap to mark its location during games. Due to the chill nature of the team, the placement of the ballcap is never exact and that often results in differing lengths of the first and third blase lines from game-to-game.

The Fridays never go home from a game before having a nice cookout with the opposing team.


Sponsorships

The official drink of the Fridays is Mountain Dew® Baja Blast Freeze. Unofficial drinks include piña colada, margarita, Capri Sun, Sunny D, and (not really a drink) Hawaiian-style shave ice. These are kind of like mascots.

There are unconfirmed rumors that a deal is being reached with Pineapple Spindrift to be supplied to the 3rd base drink cart, beginning next season.

Although the team has no owners, this almost changed due to the persistent need for 'drink money' in the lead-up to Season 2. T.G.I. Friday's restaurateur Daniel R. Scoggin attempted to buy the team. On his way to seal the deal, however, Scoggin got lost at sea. The deal accordingly never took place, although T.G.I. Friday's did manage to secure a minor sponsorship for mascot rights, which simply means that the team serves the T.G.I. Friday's drink menu at home games (e.g. THE BEST FRIDAYS™ MARGARITA, etc.).
