Have you ever lost your passport? Have you ever misplaced your passport? For professional athletes, losing a passport can be a nightmare. Soccer players have lost their passports before as mentioned in a previous Rush Passport™ blog entry. In case you forgot, back in April of 2010, Mexican soccer player Carlos Vela lost his passport and as a result, he missed the biggest game of his career – the Arsenal’s Champions League quarter-final game in Barcelona. His team ended up losing the game and some blamed the loss on the lost passport. Now, Vela takes his passport to bed with him – literally!
Another previous Rush Passport™ blog entry mentioned a professional cricket player, Graeme Swann who realized that his passport was lost just 48 hours before his scheduled departure for a big match in Australia.
This time it was a professional baseball player, Tampa Bay Devil Rays third baseman Evan Longoria who lost his passport. It turns out that he left the passport at his Tampa apartment before a team trip to Canada to play the Toronto Blue Jays.
With the team plane and 50-plus people waiting for Longoria to retrieve his lost passport, teammate David Price tweeted about the lost passport on Twitter. David Price tweeted about the lost passport on April 22nd if you want to check it out.
Longoria is on the disabled list but he was still traveling with the team. He didn’t realize they were playing in Toronto and he packed up his belongings for the road trip, but just forgot his passport.
Longoria didn’t even think of the missing passport until he boarded the plane.
