Message: [QUOTE="Orange Barrel, post: 1066132, member: 845"] Summer 1969, Fenway Park. Although I was born and raised in CNY, my father is from Worchester, Mass and is a die hard Red Sox fan. He passed this gene on to his seven kids. First time ever in an MLB park for me and two of my brothers. Beautiful evening in Boston, Tony C's comeback season and the Sox beat the A's and their crazy (at the time) green and yellow uniforms. SU beating #1 Nebraska in the dome is a close second. Same crew, many years later. A side note: I feel incredibly fortunate to still have my Dad around. He's nearly 84 now and still sharp and in decent shape. I have way too many close friends and family members who can no longer make that claim. My brothers and sisters and I still get him out to a game whenever possible, most recently the High Point game last season and Louisville at the dome (Pitino should have been T'd up.) the year before.
