The Pupfish and the softball team were running into each other at Applebee's which is one of the only restaurants open after hours. Pecos League Commisioner Andrew Dunn met with Applebee's manager Traci Cullers on 6/20/2011 to confirm the team was no longer welcome. Traci Cullers said "The Pupfish and the softball team are welcome at Applebee's. We do not block them or prevent them from coming back." Pecos League Commisioner Andrew Dunn says "We cannot have incidents like this happening. I have investigated the incident and met with Traci. At first we were going to ban the Pupfish from going to Applebee's but with cooperation of Traci and other restaurants in Alamogordo open after 10PM, we will allow players to re-enter Applebee's." We ask the citizens of Alamogordo to read the police report before making any judgements about the team.
